*Dirty Dogs* is a powerful documentary that sheds light on decades of corruption between the city of New Orleans and the famed Lucky Dog hot dog carts. Beneath the nostalgic image of the street vendor lies a troubling history of exploitation and shady dealings, which the film meticulously unravels. The evidence of collusion between the city and Lucky Dog is damning, revealing a system that has long operated above the law, much to the detriment of its workers.

At the heart of the documentary is the lawyer who tirelessly fought to expose these injustices. His journey adds a deeply personal and emotional dimension to the film, transforming it from a mere exposé into an inspiring story of perseverance and hope. His efforts to seek justice resonate strongly and bring a real heart to the narrative.

Though the narrator's lack of experience is a slight distraction, with her performance occasionally feeling out of place, the film's core message remains clear and compelling. *Dirty Dogs* is a must-watch for anyone interested in uncovering the truth behind corporate corruption and the fight for fairness in the face of overwhelming odds.

This is truly unwatchable garbage. I can't FATHOM that someone would have made this and thought it was anything but the worst documentary in the history of time. Avoid at all costs. The sound is so poorly mixed that it goes beyond amateurs, the camera work is comical at best, the film misses BASIC legal issues that they're trying to push, such as confusing Lucky Dog with the City of New Orleans, taking statements out of contact and selectively editing them into scenes not remotely containing the subject being talked about, the on camera interviewer is truly unbearable to listen to, and leads the questioning trying to get a specific answer from the interviewee. Everyone involved should be ashamed of themselves.

What do hotdog carts have to do with politics and the US legal system? Plenty, as it turns out. This entertaining and thought-provoking documentary film introduces viewers to the political aspects of commercial licensing in the French Quarter of New Orleans, but it could take place in any city in the US, - New York, L. A., or Milwaukee, Chicago, etc. - where tourism and entertainment are part of the local economy. Beginning with a SCOTUS decision that effectively granted a foodcart monopoly to a mediocre hotdog vendor in the NOLA French Quarter and working its way through the decades to reach the legislation that opened the Quater to a variety of gourmet foodcart choices, this independent film provides viewers with an eye-opening introduction to the inner workings of our governmental and judicial operations. No, it's not just about hotdogs. The foodcart is merely the vehicle to insights into the power structure.
