About this product

Product Information

Director Craig Brewer follows up his unexpectedly well-received pimp drama, HUSTLE AND FLOW, with this stylish tale of the unlikely connections that are forged when a lost soul attempts to cure a young nymphomaniac of her wicked ways. Set deep down south in a small Tennessee town, the film is titled after and largely driven by the force of blues music. Pulsating with colour and bold cinematography, the story forms a visual counterpart to a blues ballad. When divorced ex-musician Lazarus (Samuel L. Jackson) finds Rae (Christina Ricci) badly beaten by the side of the road, he brings her to his house and chains her to his radiator. Rae has been a wreck since her boyfriend (Justin Timberlake) went off to war, and has spent her time getting into fights and being taken advantage of by just about every man in town. Rae appears to be afflicted with a physical need for sex that no one can cure. As Lazarus watches Rae twitching with pain on his couch, he sees that the young womanÆs only chance at redemption is in his hands. While the premise is outlandish, and the film opens itself up for much moral criticism, BLACK SNAKE MOAN has its merits. Deliciously colourful, the film aches with rhythm and dances visually with its subjects. Whether fetishising Christina RicciÆs emaciated body, or making Samuel L. Jackson look years older than he is in real life, the cameras do their job well. Both Ricci and Jackson offer strong performances that mark turning points in their careers. BLACK SNAKE MOAN seems less concerned with how it will be judged than with embodying the sexuality and passion of blues music. No matter how many viewers the film may offend, it succeeds in creating a world that vibrates with desire and raw energy.

Reviews
Film Comment - Ricci is the white-hot focal point of Brewster's loud, brash, encompassing vision of the soul's dark night survived, peering into the dawn, Box Office - It's a film filled with sly pleasures....It marks Brewer as a much more interesting filmmaker..., Premiere - The blues here plays the role of an elemental force that can summon our deepest fears and rankest desires....[A] provocative picture...

Black Snake Moan - A totally unique story!
In a small Tennessee town, two unlikely souls are about to be lured together at the sticky crossroads between rage and love. Found lying on the side of the road, beaten and nearly dead, is Rae (Christina Ricci), a 22-year-old who has developed a reputation around town for having an insatiable "itch" for sex. Her rescuer is Lazarus (Samuel L. Jackson), an ex-blues guitarist who has grown used to life’s relentless strains of trouble and sorrow. Desperate for a change himself, Lazarus holds Rae prisoner, and sets out to "cure" her of her wicked ways. But to get to the deep, dark bottom of Rae’s mystery, Lazarus will first have to face the demons that reside in both their hearts, especially when Rae’s one true love Ronnie (Justin Timberlake), a Guardsman who was supposed to be headed for Iraq, comes looking for her. Basically you have a film with Samuel and Chrisina ricci in chains! ____________________________________________________________________________ POST SYNOPSIS I recently watched this film and I was very surprised by how good it actually was. My initial reason for watching it was much like most peoples would have been. However behind the sex and Christina Ricci permanently walking around in minimal clothing (Which the film does delivery on). It is a deeply emotional and engrossing story which reflects on common problems in modern society. Samuel Jackson as always pulls off a great performance and his character delivers some soul inspiring blues on his guitar. The films negative aspects for me consist of its religious rantings, but again I t cannot be criticized because it reflects so accurately society and the need for something to turn too in times of need. I came away from this film with a myriad of emotions an I expect others to get different things from it because it has a lot to offer. All in all a gripping story and engrossing watch. **** 4 STARSRead full review

Another excellent movie by Craig Brewer - Hustle & Flow
Ok, I hold my hands up! I bought this because I saw the poster of Samuel L Jackson holding a very scantily clad Christina Ricci in chains! I mean what red blooded male would not want to see that movie! And if all you want is a couple of hours of scantily clad Christina Ricci then you are gonna love this movie to bits!!! That said, once I'd got about a 3rd of the way through it and my pulse had slowed down a enough to think straight I began to enjoy it for completely different reasons. The plot is a recently divored, very bitter, very religious ex blues guitarist (guess who plays that part) rescues a young girl. When he finds out she is the town bike he tries to make her 'see the error of her ways' and 'smite the evil within her'. Craig Brewer again delivers the 'South' into our living rooms in a way that feels honest and real It has humour, pathos and sexuality and understanding. He manages to deal with subjects such as race, sexual abuse, Promiscuouity and poverty without pushing. Whether you want to see plenty of Christina or an excellently crafted film with superb acting, Either way, I recommend itRead full review

Excellent a must see movie
Christina Ritchi at her best with Justin Timerbake supplying the eye candy. Well worth a view, a gripping tale of a young girl who has been abused through the years and only thinks that men are after one thing. She gets beaten up and left for dead to be saved by a kindly man who helps her to get back on the right path. Excellent.
