“Memory is a selection of images, some elusive, others imprinted indelibly in the brain. The summer I killed my father, I was ten years old.”
Exploring the Layers of Eve's Bayou

With her moody directorial debut Eve's Bayou, independent filmmaker Kasi Lemmons immerses us in a vividly realized Louisiana bayou community in the 1960s. Through the eyes of daughter Eve Batiste, we witness the complexity of her affluent African-American family as simmering secrets threaten to tear them apart. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we kick off our series looking at the 1998 NAACP Image Awards Outstanding Lead Actress in a Motion Picture Nominees with a fascinating discussion about Lemmons’ 1997 film Eve's Bayou.

Capturing the Complexities of Family

At its core, Eve's Bayou is a film about the intricacies of family - both its warmth and its darkness. We analyze the exceptional performances, particularly from Lynn Whitfield as the dignified matriarch and Debbi Morgan as the insightful aunt. The perspective from daughter Eve gives an intimate viewpoint on the shifting family dynamics.

More to Explore in Eve’s Bayou

  • Samuel L. Jackson's conflicted performance as the philandering patriarch
  • The talented young cast, especially lead Jurnee Smollett
  • Themes of adultery, legacy, memory and morality
  • Magical realism elements with voodoo and psychic powers

Eve's Bayou offers no easy answers, only thoughtful examination of family bonds tested by adversity. We thoroughly enjoy analyzing this beautifully crafted and moving film. Check it out then tune in! When the movie ends, our conversation begins!
