Cast of Spike Lee’s ‘Da Sweet Blood of Jesus’ Weigh in on the Film at ABFF In New York
Zaraah Abrahams:
For me it was about making sure I studied the journey of two different people through a natural lens. When things go wrong that’s what usually molds us.
My focus was on being in love with him and growing to love him regardless of what he was or what he was addicted to. So I studied a lot of relationships.
Making the movie was intense. But we had the support of an amazing crew and Spike’s passion is contagious, it doesn’t break, so he doesn’t break, so we don’t break. It was just truly magical. It was difficult because Spike pushes you to lengths that you don’t typically want to embark on and that’s the whole trip of working with Mr. Spike Lee.
