Maybe they did lay that on too heavy, but remember the real history:
New Orleans really was besieged physically and mentally. The suicide
rate in the year after Katrina shot through the roof. Some said New
Orleans got what they deserved by God's wrath. Others said it should
be bulldozed, not resurrected. Reaction to all that was the heart of
the Goodman character. BTW, Goodman is now at least a part-time
local. He really does love New Orleans.
