when the levees broke


rob spent the better part of this weekend watching spike lee's 5 hour documentary on the devastation of hurricane katrina on new orleans. it's a moving documentary. it makes you angry, depressed, confused, and admiring of those who hold onto their integrity in such horrible circumstances.

pretty compelling stuff.

here's an interview with spike lee on the doc:

i didn't actually sit and watch the whole thing as rob and i were taking turns on the computer (with the wedding video editing) but i did hear a lot of it thru the door and i would take occasional eye breaks and watch some of it. i hope rob blogs about the doc.
