A 7-year-old girl from Detroit, Michigan, channeled Spike Lee as she walked through an AMC Theater wearing bright-orange glasses, a baseball cap, and drawn-on facial hair.

Kenya White, the girl’s mother, told Storyful her daughter, Rosie, was very excited about going to the theater to create this video, and said Rosie could “feel the whole Spike Lee vibe, and she delivered!”

“Spike Lee is one of the dopest, most recognizable directors in the world. It’s mainly because of his fun frames, cool clothes, or representing the New York Knicks,” White said. “What a perfect person to portray for Black History Month. He’s been in the business a long time and deserves to receive roses while he’s still alive.”

White told Storyful they bought movie tickets and filmed in the hallway in front of other moviegoers, who applauded Rosie’s impressive performance. Credit: Kenya White via Storyful
