"The Yellow Handkerchief"

So last night I went to the movies and saw this film, "The Yellow Handkerchief." It tell a story of three strangers, one a recently released from prison ex-con and two teenagers, on a road trip to New Orleans, which shouldn't take more than two hours from where they started from but winds up taking them a day and a half. Whatever, the film stars William Hurt, Kristen Stewart, and Maria Bello (swoon!) and was shot all over parts of Louisiana I'm quite familiar with, including Morgan City, which is where much of the film is centered through flashbacks to Hurt's character's past life. Though the movie itself was, well, kind of slow and a little meh, I really enjoyed the imagery. It's sort of beautifully shot actually...it really captures the sleepy beauty inherent in rural South Louisiana well.

Anyway, I don't think it's playing in many theaters around the country, but I wanted to pass the word nonetheless. Here's the trailer...
