Episode 158 - She's Gotta Have It
Manage episode 398782405 series 2892463
In this episode of the show we are officially beginning our new long-term project where we will comprehensively go through the cinema of Spike Lee and there's only one way to begin such a journey, which is with his debut She's Gotta Have It. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about how this movie, short as it may be, fosters a truly nuanced discussion, how it comments on different shades of feminism and how Spike Lee begins his lifelong mission of bringing the black experience to the cultural foreground. We also talk about Wizard of Oz, black-and-white cinematography as a vessel for people to connect with art and that Spike Lee's films may be better received if you pay very close attention to them.
Tune in and enjoy!
Hosts: Jakub Flasz & Randy Burrows
Featuring: Jak-Luke Sharp
Intro: Infraction - Cassette
Outro: Infraction - Daydream
