James Lee Burke’s detective comes to DVD

Adapted from James Lee Burke’s best-selling crime novel In the Electric Mist with Confederate Dead, the film stars Tommy Lee Jones, Peter Sarsgaard, Mary Steenburgen and John Goodman. Like many of the New Iberia resident’s stories, this one features gritty detective Dave Robicheaux. And who better for Robicheaux than Jones, who faces a surreal series of old forgotten soldiers in this exciting tale. This is the third of Burke’s films to make it on screen, and by far the most high profile. Electric Mist was filmed in New Orleans, St. Martinville and at Albania Plantation in Jeanerette. Rated R.
