专辑介绍
Jim White的故事拼图，像是精选了一些荒芜的情绪，但又是围坐在一起的民谣歌会。
Upon hearing the debut album by alt-country singer-songwriter Jim White, The Mysterious Tale of How I Shouted Wrong-Eyed Jesus, British commercials director Andrew Douglas contacted Jim and the two set out to make Douglas’ feature film debut by exploring the deep South.
"The resulting ary," says Variety, "reps a very European look at quintessentially American milieu, a marriage exemplified by its cool, painterly visuals and southern gothic cast of characters." Searching For The Wrong-Eyed Jesus is a thought-provoking road trip through the American south - a world of churches; prison; coalmines; truck stops; juke joints; swamps; and mountains.
Along the way the viewer encounters various musicians, including the Handsome Family, Johnny Dowd, 16 Horsepower and David Johansen; old time banjo player Lee Sexton, rockabilly and mountain Gospel churches and novelist Harry Crews telling grisly stories down a dirt track.
The film is a collage of stories and testimonies, almost invariably of sudden death, sin or redemption: heaven or hell, with no middle ground. And all the while, a strange southern Jesus looms in the background. The music in Searching For The Wrong-Eyed Jesus adds a haunting melody to the already unforgettable imagery on screen. This collection of songs is a wonderfully eclectic soundtrack of blues, Gospel, and "sadcore" indie tunes.
