CrossRoads - 1986 (Legba scene)

Escena en donde Willie Brown es enviado por su amigo, Robert Johnson, a encontrarse con Legba en la Encrucijada para firmar el pacto en donde Legba le enseñará a Brown a tocar blues a cambio de su alma.

Taking his last 2 dollars is very symbolic. The devil takes everything from you that he possibly can, even your bottom dollar, leave you destitute with nothing and vanish with it like he was never there. In the end you end up soulless with nothing, the devil drains every bit of life from you.

This film is a bit of a masterpiece, imo, and gets better with age. The climax of the guitar duel is just the icing on the cake. Steve Vai & Ry Cooder battling it out -- what could be better?

Originally the script was written so that you didn't know if he was dealing with the devil or not, it would be up to the viewer to decide. There is a leftover fragment from the original script in this scene, he tells him he'll be taught every Saturday how to play instead of just granting him his wish, that way at the end you would still have doubt that he actually sold his soul or not. And the finale was to take place in an old warehouse, they weren't transported to hell originally...

*Crossroads* (1986) Guy Killum as _Young Willie Brown_ Joe Morton as _Scratch's Assistant_ Robert Johnson (born May 8, 1911 - died August 16, 1938) was a Blues guitarist who supposedly sold his soul to the Devil in exchange for mastery of the guitar. His career only lasted from 1932 to 1938 and he had only achieved fame 7 months before his death but he is considered one of the greatest Delta Blues musicians.

I love the mystique of this old tale of selling your soul to master the blues. But as I got older, I always wondered "how" the devil taught him the blues.

The irritation on my guitar teachers face as I fumbled on my guitar, hit the wrong note, and played the shit repetitively. Lol

[@Movierebel3]

I remember when I lived in Mississippi, I was told that Robert Johnson gave the Devil his guitar, and the Devil tuned it. And once he did that, Robert could play anything on it. So, it wasn't even about giving the victim the talent -- it was the guitar itself that was enchanted.

[@edwardreese976]

Not to get "too deep" or "spiritual" with it... But the most likely answer is the person being possessed either constantly or when it's time to play. Musicians, actors and sports figures are typically idolized by "common" people. Evil spirits and fallen angels crave worship and to be made known into the physical realm. This is one way to do so. Remember Jesus said, What does it profit a man to gain the whole world yet lose his soul? The devil tempted Jesus the same...bow to him and receive all the kingdoms of the world.

[@BrookeMichaela1]

Papa Legba does not serve in this devilish manner that Hollywood portrays. He determines who comes and goes in this life. He can appear as an old man or a young boy. He is also who you pray to if you want opportunities. He is the door opener. He can open doors to new beginnings (new job, new relationship, etc). He can be labeled as the “trickster” but I would like to see it more as “be cautious and careful what you wish for” because you will get it.

Legba's got absolutely nothing to do with abrahamic religion's concept of a devil. Legba is a road opener, you go through him to get to the other Lwa. He's a friend not an adversary which is what the actual translation of Satan means. And he certainly doesn't take souls. He can be a trickster. but never in a negative way. There is always a lesson he wishes to teach you about the choices you make. he's all about possibilities. He's closer to Ganesh than any devil.

[@sigmaK9]

+mochawitch In this movie, Legba's just another name for Satanas (el diablo). Which is why he had no problem whatsoever changing his name to "Old Scratch" later on. One of his many ways of keeping people off balance. And like the Abrahamic devil, THIS Legba (aka Satanas) is not all interested in teaching lessons to humanity.
