Last night I was watching Wildcat, an
Ethan Hawke directed movie about Southern Gothic writer and Georgia native Flannery O'Connor, and I realized I
knew exactly where it was filmed. In this scene above the actor playing
Flannery is walking through my old neighborhood in Old Louisville. It is the exact same spot from Shadow's Gravity where Everett and I
walk after the bakery to the fountain. I was glad to see that the movie was filmed in Louisville as it is not a place often used in films unlike Georgia or California.
Anyway, it was a good movie.
I was completely unaware that Ethan had lived in Atlanta with his mother as a young boy for a short time. He is apparently a big fan of Flannery O'Connor.
My favorite quote from Flannery might be, "The truth does not change according to your ability to stomach it."
