The Year in Film & Music: Bowl Cuts, Dicks & Day-Lewis
'Best of' observations on the year in movies
Best unabashedly wack studio release: Craig Brewer´s Black Snake Moan comes on like a scuzzy, Southern-fried Tennessee Williams melodrama and rarely lets up. Teetering on the edge of complete outrageousness but never less than sincere, this far-out fable is a strangely tender exploration of religious salvation and the redemptive powers of Blues music. And while it doesn´t completely work, I admire Brewer´s audacity.
