SPIKE LEE: Mo' Better Blues (1990)
CLICK TO SUBSCRIBE ON YOUR FAVORITE PODCATCHER CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of womanizing, misogyny, gambling. Spike Lee had the unenviable task of following up one of the greatest movies of all time. And instead of taking a long break or jumping to big budget movies, Spike decided to rein everything back in for another slice of life about another of his many loves - jazz. Granted, his writing efforts were a bit disjointed, a bit lacking in story to make everything well-rounded. But Spike still brought all his visual powers to bear with a cast that absolutely knocks out their roles, even if they’re a bit thin on the page. And don’t get us started on the music - this movie still has a lot to offer. Grab a seat and order a drink as we talk about 1990’s Mo’ Better Blues this week on Macintosh & Maud Haven’t Seen What?!
