Moviemakers always try to do Cajun or southern backwoods for New Orleans. They know nothing about Cajuns and southern backwoods is not New Orleans at all. A New Orleans accent is about the same as any other big city. Television has just about ruined regional dialects. Cajuns reside mostly south of New Orleans. Justin Wilson was close with his accent but he was much too exaggerated. A true Cajun accent is absolutely a thing of beauty and I would love for someone to get it right on film. The movie wasn't all that bad, though. :) Yes, I cringed at the accents. Moviemakers always try to do Cajun or southern backwoods for New Orleans.
