when the leaves break

At my old job i worked with 2 guys who lived through katrina and i know alot of my friends in baltimore went down there to clean up. They all told this movie is the most acurate portrial of what was going on. I don't know if that's true but they were there so.
Spike Lee does things in this documentary that all the new onslaught of documentaries don't do and that's change view points. At one point Nagen is good then your like he's not as good i thought but he did that good thing. This could have been incredibly one sided and it's not it shows why certain things happen and even goes in the history of new orleans.
For example that rumor that one of the leaves had a bomb in it. Well the reason they think that is because it in two previous floods that actually had happened but mainly for finacal reasons. Everyone knew it was blown up on perpose so when it broke and sounded like an explosion that's why.
The running time is 4 hours but it's cut up into 4 acts covering everything for before the hurrcaine and the aftermath. But you won't notice cause it flows so well. I would recomend this to anyone and this might be my favorite spike lee film in a long time. in fact it might beat everything except do the right thing. point is it's good there's no reason not to see it so see it.
