Movies set in New Orleans
 

Can anyone give some suggestions for movies on DVD that show New Orleans architecture?

Just off the top of my head:

Angel Heart
The Big Easy
Pretty Baby

Didn't Interview With The Vampire have some?

Easy rider had some.

King Creole -- Set in New Orleans, Elvis becomes a night-club singer who gets drawn into the criminal world.

The only ones i can think of at the moment are Hard Target and Interview with the Vampire.Will post more if i can think of some.

The Beyondwas filmed in New Orleans and features a few good shots of the French quarter.

Candyman 2

'Blood of the Zombie" was filmed in 1959-era N.O., but don't get it because shriek show botched the transfer.

NO
 

Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil

Double Jeopardy is another one.

I think <b>THE FIRM</b> was also shot in New Orleans.

A good portion of JFK (the Oliver Stone movie) is set in New Orleans, where Jim Garrison was District Attorney.

Re PRETTY BABY: the "house" was set in an actual hotel that is still there out on St. Charles somewhere near the Garden District.

Not sure about The Firm,but The Client was.

Re: NO
 

Lady Chablis will <i>never</i> forgive you - it takes place in Savannah!

I lived in New Orleans for 8 years (this place is my second hometown), 2 months ago, I moved to my home country, Korea, permanently. I already miss great spicy cajun food over there, the night life of French quarter, and the Jazz music in every corner of the French quarter, especially Preservation Hall Jazz.

Some I know :

Cat People
Pelican Brief
A street car named desire
Double Jeorpardy
JFK
Interview with Vampire

USA Network's Frankenstein

DOUBLE JEOPARDY Y'ALL

It was filmed in Memphis. The story was also based in that city.

Thanks for setting me str8. I don't know why I thought it was set in NO though?

I think the James Bond Live and Let Die had some New Orleans shots.

Heaven's Prisoners starring Alec Baldwin. Not just New Orleans, it also features some sweet shots of Teri Hatcher's architecture as well.

Walk on the Wild Side
Laissez le bon temps roulee!

You were probably thinking of The Client,since it was also based from a Grisham book.

Girls Gone Wild -wink-

The Client was largely filmed in Memphis. Susan Sarandon's house in the movie was four houses down from where I grew up. My parents actually considered buying the house that was in the movie when it was on the market back in the early 80's.

Hard Target

Down by Law
Miller's Crossing

Dracula 2000 and it's sequal
Feast of all Saints

Wild at Heart

Live and Let Die for sure, inc. the jazz funeral scenes.

Clint Eastwood's Tightrope is a great
New Orleans film.

Easy Rider Totally forgot that Wyatt and Billy's trip is to New Orleans during Mardi Gras. There's some very interesting shots of parades and the above ground graves.

Having lived in Louisiana all my life, you'd think I'd know more movies about New Orleans.......
