Black Snake Moan

Question: What is the significance of Rae repeating what Lazarus's ex wife said at the beginning of the film, "See if I give a s**t about all you people"? Is this to suggest that the two met or what? I don't get it. Could someone explain it to me?

Answer: No, it's just a phrase they both blurt out when they are angry. However, for the audience watching (us), it foreshadows the similarities between Rae's and Lazarus' lives that makes them connect so well.

Continuity mistake: The marks on Rae's face change. When she is in the truck with Lazarus outside the stores, the marks on her face are almost gone. Just a few minutes later when she is talking to he mother the marks are worse.
