Bluemoon's Official Top 100 Films

Deliverance.
Is that the only where the chubby chap gets bummed by Caajan hillbillies. Top film.

Mate, a point of order — I am one-quarter Cajun and there ain’t no Cajuns in north Georgia where Deliverance takes place. The Cajuns are in Louisiana (my granny was from Thibodaux; maiden name Roubichaux) and while sometimes portrayed as swamp backwater bumpkins in the dark shadows of the bayous, they have a unique culture, including especially food and music, as well as their own language. French by background, it was the asshole British that booted them out of Canada :)

New Orleans is one of the great American cities for food and music and (especially) alcohol, though fifteen years after Hurricane Katrina it’s still not back to its pre-storm self. I used to go a lot but haven’t been in a long time — wonderful place to spend a few days gaining weight and getting hammered. A truly Cajun place.

Deliverance just had good ol’ fashioned American hicks.

Yeah!
That’s what all the Cajuns say.

Apologies for my indiscretion and it was never my intention to denigrate the Cajun nation by associating them with the scurrilous rape of Ned Beaty. I mixed the film up with Southern Comfort were a section of national guardsmen were chased around a swamp by an angry mob of Cajuns hellbent on mischief. I made reference in post 43 that it was Redknecks that did the deed but now your telling me it was Hicks. However I would in the interests of Moon clarity and adhesion like to apologize to the Hickery and Rednecks communities for the years of tainted misunderstandings that society in general has felt fit to cast aspersions upon. There's good and bad in all communities and so I remain in full agreance that the Cajans have a unique culture encompassing food, dance and mighty fine music.

Many times I have played Cajun and Zydeco music with one of my favourite pieces by a brilliant singer called Christine Balfour who formed the Balfa Toujours. It's called L'anse aux pailles and I hope you like it.
