‘Black Snake Moan’ Posters
It must be freakin' 'Happy Poster' day or something here on Solace, either that or just a lot of posters have been released today. CHUD have just dropped a couple of posters for 'Black Snake Moan' the second film from Craig Brewer after his debut 'Hustle and Flow'. I really like Hustle and Flow reminded me of the kind of films I used to rent on video when I was 14, knowingly trashy, but enjoyable all the same. It'll be interesting to see what Brewer turns out for 'the difficult second film'
The story for 'Black Snake Moan' is as follows…
A blues guitarist abandoned by his wife tries to redeem the soul of a girl addicted to sex in a rural town.
Mmmm complicated.
More news as it arises…
[...] Black Snake Moan: „A blues guitarist abandoned by his wife tries to redeem the soul of a girl addicted to sex in a rural town.“ Mit Samuel L. Jackson, Christina Ricci und Justin Timberlake. Hier die Poster, nettes Photoshopping bei der Ricci btw: [...]
This weird grind house styling they seem to be applying to a lot of posters recently is pretty cool. looks like the Tarantino, Rodriguez flicks…
Hustle and flow ws cool, not enough naked girls though
[...] Let’s declare today “No Snakes Day”, allowing an exception for discussion regarding another Samuel L. Jackson joint: Black Snake Moan, with Christina Ricci. Directed by Craig Brewer after his debut film Hustle and Flow, Lazurus (Jackson) plays a farmer and blues musician that discovers Mae (Ricci) badly beaten, on the side of the road, after her self-imposed sex spree. Mae spends a lot of screen time chained to a radiator, half naked, under house-arrest as Lazurus seeks to “rehabilitate” her from her self-destructive ways. Knowing this, and looking at the Ricci-In-Chains posters from Black Snake Moan, along with the ones from the Tarantino/Rodriguez helmed Grindhouse, you’d think that 2007 might mark the return of the 70’s style exploitation flick. Michel Gondry’s next film (following The Science of Sleep), Be Kind Rewind now has Mos Def, Melonie Diaz, Mia Farrow and Danny Glover officially attatched to join Jack Black. Roger Ebert released an statement on his website about his slower than expected recovery. [...]
[...] a little uneasy. They’re marketing it with an exploitation kind of look (just take a peak at the posters, and to the left) but that doesn’t appear to reflect the film much, it feels quite realistic [...]
