Black Snake Moan

Movie review, movie trailer and interview.

Theatrical Release Date: March 2, 2007

Starring: Samuel L. Jackson, Christina Ricci, Justin Timberlake, S. Epatha Merkerson. Directed by Craig Brewer. Written by Craig Brewer. Produced by John Singleton and Stephanie Allain. A Paramount release.

Comedy, Drama. Rating: R. Run Time: 115 minutes.

Lazarus (Samuel L. Jackson) is a God-fearing, middle-aged man who finds a half naked and beaten unconscious woman (Christina Ricci) left for dead on the side of the road. As he nurses her back to health by using unusual methods, he keeps her presence a secret from the residents of the small Tennessee town where they live.

I enjoyed how this movie manages to be part drama, part comedy and even part documentary on small town southern life in the 21st century. There are many surprises as well as great acting performances by Samuel Jackson and Christina Ricci.

Grade: B+
