Review of Black Snake Moan (2006) by Michael Phillips for Chicago Tribune — 20 Aug 2015
Black Snake Moan strikes me as hogwash. It fundamentally does not work; its consciously far-fetched, out-there notions of the things damaged people do in the name of love are reductive and go only so far.
It's as if the premise were tethered to a radiator or something.
