The Spirit Remains
This home video contains the entire fourth episode in the acclaimed Louisiana Public Broadcasting series of cultural specials. Take to the road across Louisiana to explore landmarks and institutions that are gone but not forgotten including a tribute to an overlooked Franklin storekeeper, the tremendous talents of Shreveport’s “Leadbelly,” the emotional demolition of Thibodaux’s Grand Theater, a lesson in humanity as told by Ruston’s P.O.W Camp, the demise of LSU’s Free Speech Alley and the vanishing landmarks captured by a wise sketch artist. “Lost Louisiana: The Spirit Remains” is an impassioned eulogy for our vanishing way of life.
