Little Chenier (2006) Reviews
Excellent Movie
Very good movie. I just wish that it would have been shown more times, and at more theater's then what it was, so more people could have seen it. I thought that it could have been rated PG-13. I am from Louisiana and I think that the area where the film was shot was shown in a very realistic form. There were a few twists to the movie that kept your attention. The ending of the movie will surprise most people who watch it. I think there needs to be more movies like this about people from Louisiana living on the Bayou. This was the best movie of this type that I have seen about Louisiana. Again I wish that I had another opportunity to see this movie again. I can't wait until the DVD come out so I can go and buy it.
Authentic and Captivating
There is rarely a movie that accurately portrays Louisiana, a feat that "Little Chenier" achieved with charm and respect. The story is one of great love, responsibility, patience, and loyalty with songs that are sure to stir you. And if the music doesn't conjure up any emotions in you, the story certainly will with an ending that has viewers leaving the theater in awe. I think this was a beautiful story and that the characters were very believable in their roles. The dialect was authentic in conjunction with the captivating scenery. It was able to truly represent many of the areas treasured by southern Louisiana locals. It is great to have these landmarks that were destroyed by Hurricane Rita preserved on film.
Little Chenier's big in my heart
I was born and raised in Lafayette Louisiana and still am here and I was lucky enough to have viewed this amazing film at the Films on the Bayou Film Festival this past spring. The movie was very touching and funny and moving at times, and although, yes, some of the acting and accents were questionable, you could tell that Bethany put her heart and soul into this movie. It's one of the few movies out there that doesn't make fun of Cajuns, and it's very refreshing to see one, so props for that. The film pushed and pulled people in there seats. The crowd was very responsive, even after waiting the hour or more to view it since they had one role of film for the 5 packed theaters that were showing it simultaneously. If you get a chance to see it, please take the time, it's worth it.
True to Life
Finally! A movie that portrays Cajuns realistically without fake accents and over-the-top stupidity. This movie shows the soul of the Cajun people and the beauty of the land in which they live.Although the story takes place in the bayous of Louisiana the theme of jealousy is universal and everyone can relate to it no matter where this movie is shown. The music is not your typical "Jolie Blond" french music heard in every Louisiana film. It's french, but beautiful and haunting and helps to unify the film bringing the characters, bayou setting, and music together into one of the best films I've enjoyed in the past months. Bravo!
solid drama with a nice ending
well done non-Hollywood movie which seem to be so rare these days. it is a story about two brothers, one with a mental problem, the other one with a big heart and the will to do anything to protect his handicapped brother. the scenery is really beautiful and i hope the environment can catch up after the horrible impact of hurricane Katrina. the portray of the Cajun people and culture was very interesting to watch on screen. the final scene is excellent and left me speechless for a minute. i hope this movie does well on DVD, because it deserves it.
