We filmed in City Park of New Orleans, La. and we were dressed in such small and tight clothing and it was all wool and we were sweating our butts off to death. We were filming from 6am up until 7PM! There was some slight breeze for part of the day but it was a hot one. Wearing all wool in the South in April? What were they thinking! Everyone was complaining of how hot it was and all the standing we had to do, but the crew told us that would happen so we could not react to it because we were well prepared. I got a chance to meet Anthony Mackie and Mary E. Winstead and Benjamin Walker. They looked old but they had to to be Abe Lincoln and Winstead plays his wife in the movie and Mackie is Abe's right hand man. Pics were not allowed because the production does not want pics getting out before the film is released but you know people will take pics on the sly and we did! It is just a habit! All in all, the shot went great and I had a wonderful time! I was thinking about movies such as old Country Westerns, Titanic because of how the girls hair was, The Color Purple, Roots, all those old classics and Walker Texas Ranger! I was literally brought back to Earth when I was wearing my own clothes! I felt like I was dressed to pick cotton, be a slave, no segregation, etc! Oh man!
