See a Film for New Orleans –updated below–
Have you seen \”Déjà Vu\” with Denzel Washington? We
finally did.
It\’s filmed in and dedicated to the people of New Orleans.
I don\’t know if you\’re as big a movie goer as we are, but if you get a chance
go see it, if only to honor the fact that it\’s dedicated to New Orleans. My
husband and I visited that great city right before Katrina hit. Some of the
devastation makes it into the film. It\’s a reminder of what we all still can
do for the Gulf Coast region.
As for the rating on this film, I\’ll let you be the critics on this one. I
enjoyed it immensely, but to say I\’m a huge Denzel Washington fan is an understatement,
so my critic\’s hat is off for now. I will, however, recommend that you suspend your disbelief
before entering the theater. I\’ll leave it at that, but feel free to pick up
on the theme in the comments.
More movies to come over the holidays. Can\’t wait.
UPDATE (7:20 p.m.): I keep getting asked if I\’ve seen \”Casino Royale,\” which I reviewed recently. Short version: GO SEE IT.
