VENICE, Sept 1: American actress Patricia Clarkson has revealed her private family anguish after Hurricane Katrina devastated her home city of New Orleans, where her politician mother has remained working, holed up in a city hotel.
“But she’s safe and the whole family’s safe, otherwise obviously I wouldn’t be here,” Clarkson told a news conference at the Venice film festival to promote George Clooney’s “Good Night and Good Luck”, in which she stars.
“Her mother is with the mayor on the 12th floor of the Hyatt Hotel,” Clooney said, placing a comforting hand on Clarkson’s shoulder. —AFP
