Yeah, they filmed the recent movie (w/Jessica Simpson) around here so
there were dozens of Orange Chargers and scores of white police cars
on trailers being pulled around. They leased a closed car dealership
and stored/repaired them there. A friend of mine actually bumped into
Jessica when they were filming at LSU. At one point in the film the
car jumps from Baton Rouge to New Orleans. Not really but the take
off was shot in BR and the landing was shot in NO. Going around
circles in NO "dirt track style" (drifting) was impressive. I wish I
could drive like that and get away with it.
