Nonpopulist Movies: Black Snake Moan

I saw Black Snake Moan recently, and I was impressed. It is the 2nd movie from filmmaker Craig Brewer. His first was Hustle and Flow. On the basis of Hustle and Flow alone I wanted to see Black Snake Moan. Christina Ricci looked great and gave a great performance. A lot of people make fun of Samuel L. Jackson for his choice in movies. Say what you like, he was good in this movie. My only regret is that I waited so long to see this movie. Put it in your Netflix queue posthaste!
