Spike Lee's "When the Levees Broke" Katrina doc is online


When the Levees Broke, Spike Lee's powerful 4-hour HBO documentary on the human disaster surrounding Hurricane Katrina, has shown up online. Ajit at ticklebooth blog writes,

This film is Lee’s best non-fiction work and the best Katrina related film I have seen. The film goes to the very roots of the Katrina disaster (the man-made one) following the trails of race, Louisiana oil and politics.

 

The entire film comes in 26 parts: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26.

Link. This documentary was incredible, masterly, historically important work, and I know many who don't subscribe to HBO want to see it. The very moment HBO makes it available on DVD or purchaseable digital video download, I will eagerly be there with credit card in hand. I wish they'd done so already.
