The Ups and Downs of the Great Flood of 2016 is a raw look into the aftermath of a disaster that really shook southern Louisiana. It’s not your typical documentary; it feels more like a heartfelt conversation. The late Mary Ellen Payne shares her story with such emotional weight, bringing a personal touch that’s often missing in larger documentaries. The pacing is slow, almost contemplative, which allows for real reflection on loss and resilience. The way it captures the stark reality of the devastation is something to note—practical effects are non-existent, but the authenticity is palpable. It's a bit uneven in places but that just adds to the realness of it all. You can feel the struggle in her voice. Worth checking out for sure.
