"Underrated" doesn't even begin to describe the tragedy that is the general public knowledge of this film. The acting, the music, and direction, the visuals... they're all superb, and this film is never mentioned amongst the classics of cinema as it should be.

In Haitian Vodou, *Papa Legba* is the loa who serves as the intermediary between the loa and humanity. He stands at a spiritual crossroads and gives (or denies) permission to speak with the spirits of Guinee, and is believed to speak all human languages. In Haiti, he is the great elocutioner. Legba facilitates communication, speech, and understanding.

@semperterra3235
@semperterra3235 6 жыл бұрын
Maybe you are right Pickle Jar, it would explain something about this film that puzzled me: Why is Eugene such a fucking moron? Let me elaborate. Eugene & Willy B go to the Crossroads. A man turns up asking "you lookin for me Willy Brown?", Willy confirms that he is and proceeds to try and undo the deal he made as an unusually stupid teenager with short time preferences and a poor grasp of theology. The Devil tells him to piss off, but makes a counter off to play double or quits for Eugene’s immortal soul. Eugene, being even dumber than Willy at the same age casually agrees to this deal with the words "sure, I don’t believe in any of this shit anyway". Yup nothing at all unusual about this situation, I’m sure it happens very frequently in the rural south. Eugene doesn’t seem to find it at all strange that this guy has just turned up talking about deals done and seems to know old Willy. I mean wouldn’t he just find that a little bit worthy of contemplation? Even if he just thought old Willy was playing a practically based joke on him? But maybe Eugene is a tool of the divine, rather than just a tool.

Joe Seneca -- always a first class actor. He appeared after this film in the remake of "The Blob" as a government scientist who comes to contain it. Even in that silly remake his performance was excellent. One of his finest moments was in the Paul Newman movie "The Verdict." He was also a blues singer & songwriter in an earlier career. I met him briefly while working on the TV movie "Terrible Joe Moran," -- a great little movie -- which starred legendary actor James Cagney and Art Carney in the late 70's. Joe played Pittsburgh Pete. (A movie worth finding).

The movie as a whole, is pretty good. This scene is dynamite, in my opinion one of the best devil/temptation scenes ever! They refer to him as Legba, but to be historically correct, the man in the suit is the devil. When most films seem to make Devil scenes to over done or somewhat cheesy, this scene relies on the strength of the actors abilities, and the setting.This fim was shot in the eighties, when drama had such a more direct approach and delivery. I cant watch this scene enough. Even the little special effect at the end is tasteful.

They refer to him correctly. Scratch, Legba, and papa Labas are the various names, used in Voodoo for the Devil. It is historically accurate. If you understand the legend of Robert Johnson you would know that. Interesting fun fact. Like Morrison Hendrix and Joplin, how old do you think Robert Johnson lived to be? Yep 27. Just like so many others. It's what happens when you cut deals at the crossroads. BTW that's also why they hung witches at the crossroads. To send them back to the devil.

Perhaps you could answer me a question then. If your God is all-powerful, then why does he allow the Devil to do mischief? Either He is not all-powerful, as surely He would then be able to stop the mischief; or, if He allows it, then He isn't good. As a pagan I have always wanted to hear what the answer to this seeming conundrum would be as it's not my place to do so.

I studied both Old and New Testaments in depth as well as pre-Biblical formative works, and I have my own opinions however I thought it would be nice if someone who is a Christian could give me their own viewpoint on the subject. In pagan belief systems, such as where Papa Legba is venerated, we do not view the goddesses and gods of our Ancestors as being evil, or associated with the Biblical Devil, who seems to have been given a lot of power over the lives of people. Legba is an indigenous African Spirit who is known as the Trickster. The Trickster Deities are not experienced as evil, nor are they all-powerful , but their mythos is related to natural events such as seasonal changes, times of plenty and times of drought. They are nature Deities and therefore do not fall into a dichotomy of absolute evil vs, absolute good. Pagan spirituality centers around the worship of Nature, and the Deities also personify certain natural forces. Such as the sun - many pagans view Jesus as a Sun god, in line with other Sun gods such as Osiris or Bel. I suppose it all depends on your frame of reference, but if this Devil chappie came near to the Furies they would probably give him a sound whipping for his troubles and keep him tame from thereon in.

Going to the Cross roads to sell your soul to the Devil in order to be great at something is symbolic and in its symbolism its real enough. The Cross roads is the Crossroads in your life. You can choose to go one way in your life or you can choose to go another way. "Selling your Soul" is symbolic of deciding that nothing else or no one else in your life matters more. Its this one path that you are committing to completely and you are going to be great or your going to fail trying. Everything else in your life is expendable.

Watch this scene in HD if you can. Check out the devil's teeth. He's got one old yellow jagged tooth longer than the others. Looks like an old fang that' worn down from use. It just adds to the "evil" characterization. "I come to see ya, tell ya the deal's off.""Oh no, accordin' to this here piece of paper the deal's still on.""You can tear that up and give me some peace."Smiling, the devil replied;"Now why would I want to do that?"
