Watch this if you can...

I was going through my HBO On Demand feature last night and came across the Spike Lee documentary, ';When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts.';

I remember when it came out on HBO back in 2006, but I never watched it. Well, having just returned from my first time in New Orleans last week, this peaked my curiosity now much more.

I watched the 1st episode last night %26amp; figure on watching the 2nd part tonight (each just over 2 hours). Having just been there myself, I have an even greater appreciation (if that%26#39;s possible) of the people of New Orleans %26amp; what they went through during Katrina itself %26amp; the years that have followed.

And for those of you who may be planning a future trip %26amp; haven%26#39;t been there since Katrina, I think it will give you an even greater sense of what New Orleans really means.

It was tough to watch. Intense. Heart-tugging. Emotional. But well worth the time. If you can access or rent it, I do recommend it highly.

Just my 2 cents...

Watch this if you can...

This is a very powerful film. I remember first watching it - our cable company screened it for free down here for those who don%26#39;t get HBO.

Yes, there are some flaws with the film, but overall, it%26#39;s worth watching.
