Spike Lee is back in theaters, albeit in limited release, with his take on the Broadway play Passing Strange. Will this be the film to bring Lee back into the spotlight? Also returning to screens this week is Quentin Tarantino. Inglourious Basterds is the long awaited film from the creator of Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill.
