Do the Right Thing vs. Jungle Fever

Interesting that both these films came out less than five years form eachother, and both talk about how race relations are still present in the everyday world and how we deal with them, concously or subconcously. I want to give credit to Jungle Fever for tackling the hard subject of race as it deals with sexuality, but it doesn't feel as tight as Do the Right Thing (particularly when it steps into the drug culture subplot). So, for now, Do the Right Thing wins.
