WWTW Rewind: ‘She’s Gotta Have it’ (1986) — WHAT WOULD TOTO WATCH?

WWTW Rewind: ‘She’s Gotta Have it’ (1986)

July 15, 2008

It took just 12 days and $175,000 to launch the career of arguably the most important black director of the last 25 years.

Spike Lee’s “She’s Gotta Have It” finally came out on DVD earlier thisyear, and it’s a fine reminder of how maddeningly inconsistent the director can be. You can’t blame his debut, which I broke down for The Washington Times

The sexual dynamics of a woman juggling three men without guilt are as relevant today as they were in the ’80s. I bet “Sex and the City’s” Samantha would kill to add this DVD to her collection. Too bad the disc lacks any extras - not even a trailer.
