Orleans

The Big Easy (1987)

1 recommendation

"An atmospheric and sexy crime caper, this stars Dennis Quaid as a New Orleans police detective. He's a smooth talker who butts heads with the new assistant district attorney, Ellen Barkin. She's rigid and plays by the rules; he is mildly corrupt. They soon find themselves romantically entwined, and a bit chagrined. I love this movie - the Big Easy captures the city's lush and dramatic atmosphere, ..."

Welcome to Old New Orleans Rum!

I attended a party at the New Orleans Rum Distillery recently where a whole bunch of mojitos were served - I am in love. The only rum a true New Orleanian will ever have to buy again, made right here in the heart of the Big Easy."
