Not an AKA obviously, but I saw a Conan w/ Ricci, and she indicated it was about a promiscuous and generally troubled southern girl who makes friends w/ Samuel L. They were talking about how the cover was misleading, because it makes her look like she's his sexslave or something, while in actuality he's somewhat of a mentor figure to her. I dunno if this is accurate, but its what I gathered.

From the preview I saw I think he does chain her up to keep her from going *somewhere* whether that's back to an abusive boyfriend, or to her drunken/drugged/sex-crazed life I dunno. I think it was more than just handcuffs but it's been a while. But yeah, no sex-slave or anything.

i saw the commercial for the first time last night. Ricci was in her underwear (a tank top maybe?) and chained up and Samuel J. was yelling (as usual).

weird beyond words.

I watched the trailer for the movie on MySpace and he finds her near his house naked laying on the ground...I guess he chains her up to keep her from her wicked ways, drugs, sex, whatever...he sings blues or something to her and looks very sweaty and stinky throughout the trailer...Samuel L. has a knack for looking very sweaty quite often... it looks like a very strange movie...

What surprises me is that it's being produced by John Singleton and Stephanie Allain, both AfAm.

Same thing I heard..

I saw an interview where the actress said something to the effect that Samuel L. Jackson's character is like a best-friend of her character and he chains her up to keep her from going out to do drugs. The trailers are misleading. I might check it out.

Controversy generates buzz, which generates moviegoers, which equates to (usually) cha-ching ($$$$)!




I don't know what you all are talking about. I'm going to find this trailer.

Found it:

http://www.moanmovie.com/

The title? It's different, but I'm not going to say a porn title. The poster is pushing it.

I've seen worse. John and 'em ARE pushing the envelope. It could become a cult classic. :shrug:

I've seen some interviews and the trailer as well. I'm intrigued enough to go see it...provided that it actually makes its way down here to the 5th Circle of Hell (b.k.a. Monroe).
