The Movie includes scenes from the 1955 Mardi Gras King Rex Parade.
This scene looks like it was filmed in The Court Of Two Sisters or Pat O'Brien's.
Good scene  with a panhandler and pickpocket who asks for a dollar for coffee. Then pulls out a roll when the man and woman leave. He acts drunk and asks for coffee money from the same couple again later.

I had a young white guy pull this on me at a 7-11 recently. He asked for a dollar for coffee inside the 7-11. I told him no and watched as he walked away past the coffee and went and got a large six pack of beer and took it to the counter to pay.
