Let me cut to the chase- just buy a ticket and go. I LOVE YOU, ALLWAYS is an absolute blast and you need to see it.
The film is a a portrait the Allways Lounge in New Orleans Seventh Ward. Run by an ex-dance the place has drag & burlesque performances and a grand cast of characters who help the place survive changing laws, rising rent and natural disasters.
If this film was a person I would a hug it. This film is a glorious celebration of a bunch of people who are doing what they do because they have to. I love everyone on screen.
The film charts the lounge's life over time. We watch as covid closes them, storms do damage and the landlord wants more money. Its a battle that rocks them but which they ride because they have such good company.
This film will delight you. Go see it when it plays at the Brooklyn Film Festival
