Everybody's an All American

Double Jeopardy

I'm watching The Apostle now. Starts in Texas but the most of the film is in La

The Toy with Richard Pryor.

I was a little kid, and never realized there was a joke thrown in a few times until I got older. The kid's name was Eric Bates and Richard Pryor would refer to him as "Master Bates".

Obviously there are a lot of movies posted that were filmed in Louisiana or based there, but I think the really neat thing is when a movie that is filmed in and/or based in Louisiana actually allows for the setting to become a character or major influencing factor in the story.

Some of those films have been mentioned, but that is one of the reasons why I have enjoyed True Detective so much. They seemed to capture the essence of a side of South Louisiana that plays its cards close to the vest, protects its own, and just gives off that vibe that outsiders are welcome... as long as they don't get too close!

Any movies based in Louisiana?


I know there a quite a few TV shows but are there any actual movies based in Louisiana? If so can you name a few and give me a quick description? Need something to watch this weekend. TIA

The end and final battle of Universal Soldier. Takes place in Meraux, LA. Just ignore the mountains in the background of a town that's southeast of New Orleans.
