Although the events of Katrina were tragic and horric, When The Levee's Broke still managed to highlight the positive aspects of New Orleans, it's culture and it's people. Spike Lee's documentary proved to be an incredibly well rounded piece of documentary filmmaking.
Now five years later, Spike Lee and crew have returned to New Orleans with a follow up If God's Willing And Da Creek Don't Rise. The recent BP Gulf oil spill was a truly tragic coincidence.....here's an interview with Spike talking about the project...
DISASTER CAPITALISM!!!
If God Is Willing And Da Creek Don't Rise is starting HBO real soon...no doubt it will make it way to other outlets in the near future....
