Bourbon Street Blues
overview
Bourbon Street Blues is made after Tennessee Williams' play The Lady Larkspur Lotion.
"In a rundown French Quarter boarding house, Mrs Hardwick-Moore, a faded beauty in an alcoholic tailspin, chooses to remain blanketed in her delusional dream world, despite its conflict with the reality presented to her by a brusque landlady. This brief, yet intensely evocative, character study is widely considered to be a preparatory sketch for Blanche DuBois in A Streetcar Named Desire.”
