"Tropical Depression" is a screwball romantic comedy set days before a hurricane in rural Louisiana. A runaway housewife and her gorgeous but chauvinistic Tulane professor get lost with her out of control, adolescent son and a cast of lowlife characters including a wise porter with the mind of a wizard. The couple must escape forbidden entanglements as a hurricane approaches behind them.Tropical Depression captures upper-class New Orleans society, kind of a Gone with the Wind gone awry; privileged characters on the verge of decadence and violence struggling to find honor in an environment in quicksand. I show you a world rarely viewed by outsiders, the New Orleans top drawer, in all their defiant and jaded sensuality, ordering iced coffee while their lives collapse.
