Passion in Pieces was selected for a special screening. The tropical, exotic, wonderful city of New Orleans seduces you from the start. It is as much American as it is French as Italian as Caribbean - and everywhere there is great food that the locals talk about forever. I too fell in love with this laughing, shameless old woman who still raises her skirt to the sophisticates of the 21st century - and just doesn't care. I felt Shakespeare too would have have been right at home where there is drinking, sensual music and bright eyed women with sun-darkened skin. So where better to tout my little films of the great poet's sexual desires than the "Big Easy."
