Patricia Clarkson’s mom steals the show at her movie premiere

Patricia Clarkson has her legions of fans, but it was the actress’ mom who brought down the house at Wednesday night’s Cinema Society premiere of her film “Last Weekend.”

Jackie Clarkson, 79, once a member of the Louisiana House of Representatives and former president of the New Orleans City Council, tore up the dance floor at new restaurant Washington Market Tavern, jitterbugging with Clarkson’s castmates until well after midnight.

Clarkson also joined in the dancing to guests’ delight.
