The Cincinnati Kid.

Finally a movie with a Louisiana setting. I wonder why nobody suggested King Creole?

Someone just did.

And even Elvis knew it was Crawfish and NOT Mudbug.

Another film made in Louisiana. Many scenes in Lafayette. Some at the now demolished Town House motel.

IMDb: : The Drowning Pool

Some very stereotyped portrailals of Louisiana people. Tony Francioso was the worst.

I'll tell you whats unbelievable bad was the "House of Dragon" I think its' called, the GOT prequel series. I think I watched 30 minutes into it and nearly threw something at the tv for it to end. About as cool as Burger Tyme's "grand opening" in the old Wendy's on Johnson. About as cool as Metalica's new album, 72 seasons...absolute junk. About as cool as having to watch LSU today, and not the Cajuns.

Shout out to Coach Deggs, great season brother, CAN NOT Wait till the 2024 Cajuns are back, ready for War. We're gonna rename the Cajuns after next season. We will come to be known not as Louisiana Baseball, instead we'll be called "The Program"

Back to GOT, Whomever was responsible for the construction of these Castles, Carriages, Ships, Armaments and so on are absolute Masters of their craft.

Super thumbs up on the 1st paragraph. FAH! I was watching GOT last night & I was thinking the same thing right down to the prison cells. Also, totally agree on HOD, but I was able to give them half a season. It just didn't happen.

Thanks, I need to look that movie up. I worked with someone offshore who's claim to fame was being an extra in that film. How would you rate it against other Newman works?

Not sure if A Clockwork Orange is obscure in many people's eyes here but I'll give that one my vote

IMO "A Clockwork Orange" was an incredible movie who's biggest problem was it was made ahead of it's time. Had that movie been released same actors & cinematography, 30 years later, it probably wins an Oscar.

It was about the middle of the pack for Newman.

I just saw a portion of Saving Private Ryan and have to admit, it's a pretty dog gone good movie

If you’re looking for a Louisiana setting for a movie, try Angel Heart.

Mickey Rourke, Lisa Bonet and De Niro. It’s VERY on point with NOLA voodoo stuff.

Heck of an ending.

I don't know if it will be any good but '57 Seconds' with Morgan Freeman and Josh Hutcherson is set to release in September of this year. It was filmed almost exclusively in Lafayette.
