The Kingdom Of Zydeco
1994 : 1 hour 11 minutes
This video is only available with Night Flight+.
Director: Robert Mugge
synopsis
"THE KINGDOM OF ZYDECO is both a cunning little comedy of manners and a sweet-tempered celebration of American roots music. The Chavis-Jocque tussle is prototypical American status buffoonery painted in folk-miniature. Both these men kick out the jams in thrilling performances filmed with blissful authority by Mugge, a specialist in roots music documentaries." - Gene Seymour, New York Newsday
