A very unique piece for its time

This movie was a very interesting to watch. With a focus in a more underground aspect of New Orleans. The director managed to create a classic cinematography feel to it which is a very refreshing thing to see in a more homogenous bombardment of movies who have the same lighting methods and camera angles.

I have seen other reviews on the movie calling out their concerns about having fairly well known actors not being used to their full potential, I disagree with their assessments, movies are not spotlights for certain people to have a stage to further the career, it is a opportunity for great actors to paint a story and transport the audience into their world which was done decently well in this movie.

Some things that I felt were not done as well as I would have personally liked included character background. I understand that the past is supposed to be more mysterious but some more background as to how the mc got to that point in his younger self would have been nice. And at times the pacing for the movie was off. Not a perfect movie to my likings but considerably better than some of these other raters would have you believe.
