She’s Gotta Have It

Director: Spike Lee Run Time: 84 min. Format: Digital Release Year: 1986

Starring: John Canada Terrell, Raye Dowell, Spike Lee, Tommy Redmond Hicks, Tracy Camilla Johns

Writer/Producer: Spike Lee

Spike Lee’s explosive and entertaining first feature – She’s Gotta Have It crackles with the life, humor, and authenticity that sets Lee in a class of his own. Beautiful Nola Darling (Tracy Camilla Johns) can’t decide what kind of man she wants to date, so she decides to date three at the same time. The first is Greer Childs (John Canada Terrell), a rich, handsome narcissist. Then there’s Jamie Overstreet (Tommy Redmond Hicks), a stable, overprotective alpha male. Finally, there’s Mars Blackmon (Spike Lee), a timid geek with a heart of gold. Unfortunately, while each suitor has his virtues, Darling just can’t seem to make up her mind.
