★★★ · Nice that Mr. And Mrs White have their own drinking fountain · Spuzz · 2015-05-11
Another travelogue, this time of the deep south, that offers very few people, but a lot of scenery. This was pretty good as it offers a lot of Louisiana for your money. The film featured signs of buildings, but I didn't know of what they were, (historical landmarks? Hotels?) the film did offer some shots of black people, some black racist dolls, and of "whites only" fountains. The signifigance of all of these is somewhat lost here, whether they were doing it to prove a point or what.
