Comment from Hudson
Headed down south? Well I doubt you’ve heard of New Orleans being referred to as “Hollywood of the South,” but the moniker is well deserved. Seems like every other month someone is shooting a movie here or there. No one can really say why, but it is true that the South holds a certain allure to both folks who live there and those that only read about it. There must just be something about the cypress trees, the Spanish moss, the large antebellum oaks and the briny saltwater floating in off the gulf to put a certain poignant Southern something into the air.
