Long before Criterion box set Always for Pleasure, Les Blank’s J'ai été au bal/I Went to the Dance (1989) was my first introduction to not only the documentarian’s work but to cajun and zydeco music.

Now they are releasing the film in restored 5K at IFC Center on 9/1. If you want to brighten up your day and enjoy some great music, please go see it.

This is my short reaction watching I Went to the Dance in 2012. http://www.dustinchang.com/2012/03/fiddle-and-accordion.html?m=1
