Movie Reviews of When the Levees Broke - A Requiem In Four Acts (Documentary)
Movie Review: you must see this film.
Summary: 5 Stars
every american should see this documentary. everyone else should also see to understand the issue.
the film itself is brilliant. it's made of news footage and photos( of the horrors of katrina.) the interviews (many of them first-hand account) are from all corners of the new orleans life-- everyday people, politicians, entertainers, et cetera. the way the images, voices and faces are interchanged is just amazing. so, the film itself is visually stunning.
documentaries are supposed to be as powerful as this one. and the main reason you should not miss it is that the horrific, heart-wrenching stories of the survivors is the best thing about this documentary.
the message of the film? that we, as americans, have failed that city. from all levels of society, it was failed. but most of all at the federal government level, where it seems the city was treated as a foreign city with funds being cut and its problems repeatedly being ignored. and that, when help was needed, it took the federal government almost a week to respond to a city in mayhem.
