When you live near Chalmette, chose a day to visit the battlefield not by the calendar day but by the foggy weather. No one else will be there, and the feel of the place is better (no levee, no factories) just fog.
Something else to see in context is the Florida Battery over in Pensacola. There was one upriver from where the battlefield is, and it would have worked back then.
And if you are coming down from Tennessee Alabama or Mississippi, take Natchez Trace parkway.

The fact that it hasnt been made into a movie is a huge indictment of Hollywood on multiple fronts
---It was, 1938 and 1958
And Johnny Horton's #1 song in 1959

I’m not sure someone making a movie 88 years ago in black and white really still counts but you are technically correct haha.

It has, twice. Movies can be in black n white. The 1950s version was in color.

Lived down the street from a guy that had a beagle named Packingham after the British general that was killed in this battle.
