Always for Pleasure is a 1978 documentary film by Les Blank about social traditions in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Les Blank: Always for Pleasure. An uncompromisingly independent filmmaker, Les Blank made documentaries for nearly fifty years, elegantly disappearing with his camera into cultural spots rarely seen on-screen—mostly on the peripheries of the United States, but also occasionally abroad.
