Best Doc Ever!
12 April 2006
You will be completely transported through time & space, back to La Belle Nouvelle Orleans circa the 70's. The banging beat of Mardis Gras plays in the background as happy faces second line down the street. This documentary shows New Orleans the way it REALLY WAS!!!! Learn all about The Mardis Gras Indians with Big Chief Landry & The Wild Chopitulous, and how not to burn read beans by Irma Thomas. Beautifully shot & completely honest, this film is the most accurate portrayal of a once thriving, unique, beautiful, bewitching city & it's carefree jubilant inhabitants. Watch, you'll have a cry too! Hopefully historians have this film in their archives as evidence to the magic that was, and hopefully one day will be again - New Orleans!
