Happy Lundi Gras, everybody!
More film talk here later, but I wanted to remind you to be sure to crack open an Abita Turbodog, cue up your Indian music, and check out the parade cams down in the City that Care Forgot. Tonight, hometown boy Harry Connick, Jr.'s krewe Orpheus is set for 5:15 p.m., and tomorrow set those alarms for Zulu and Rex, which roll at 8:30 and 10 a.m., respectively [all times central].
Then read Chris Rose's Times-Picayune columns about what life is really like in New Orleans six months after Katrina and make a donation to the cause of your choice, cause they're still hurting.
Film recommendation: Les Blank's Always for Pleasure.
