The Saturn Bar, NOLA

Saw this film, by chance, one lazy Saturday afternoon, while just "couch-potatoing/channel surfing"...glad I was...

Being from The Big EZ, it peaked my interest, not to mention the very colorful array of characters! Now... here's the thing: There was a scene in this movie, where Lily & Mulate meet up at a bar, called "The Saturn Bar"; I happen to know exactly where this bar is located within the 7th Ward of New Orleans.

What I want to know is if that scene was actually filmed at that location, or was it simply a shot from the outside and filmed another location? Does anyone know? Just curious.

Aside from that, I think I'll purchase the DVD to add to my New Orleans Colllection of videos. Really steamy and intriguing..

OH.. & P.S.: It held my attention, surprisingly, all the way to the end! It was Good.
