“Do the Right Thing” (ドゥ・ザ・ライト・シング), Original Release Japanese Movie Poster 1989, B2 Size (51 × 73 cm) ZA982

This is an original Japanese B2 theatrical poster printed in 1989 for the first Japanese release of Do the Right Thing (ドゥ・ザ・ライト・シング), written and directed by Spike Lee.

A landmark of modern American cinema, the film captures one sweltering day in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn—building from humour and neighbourhood rhythms into an explosive confrontation about race, power, and community. Still as urgent now as it was on release, it remains one of Spike Lee’s defining works and one of the most important American films of the late 20th century.

Poster design
The iconic overhead key art, adapted for the Japanese campaign: the chalk-painted “DO THE RIGHT THING” title dominates the blue street, with Spike Lee and characters arranged around it like a living map of the neighbourhood. The Japanese title ドゥ・ザ・ライト・シング sits at the top, and the lower copy highlights critical awards recognition. A bold, instantly recognisable, gallery-ready B2 that frames beautifully.

It is over 35 years old!
