My biggest thing with it is that in spots it makes the city seem more together,'back' than it actually was just three months after.At least where I was located over on the West bank.Have to remember that it is broken into Parishes here and some gaps in differences are huge.As far as cultural portrayals its DEF on point.Ive never lived over on the East bank which is where the main breech occurred but to this day you would swear it was the day after the storm...only difference being the streets are dry.In some areas they will NEVER come back as before.Hate to say it stands a huge chance to repeat on any given season as far as Levees are concerned.They are a joke!
