I think one problem was that they jumped the Huey P. character too quickly from good guy to totally loathsome. <BR/><BR/>Gumbo Is Very Bayou, indeed.

We are Netflix nuts, and this movie got great reviews. Neither Jim nor I could get into it. Jim thought it was because he was ill. I assured him I couldn't follow it either. The story was convoluted and it was difficult to understand what they were saying. At one point I suggested we turn on the subtitles. We ended up turning it off halfway through.<BR/><BR/>I love that you're taking Laddie gumbo. That is so Bayou of you. ;oRianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15728394027261108470noreply@blogger.com
