Her family is descended from a slave, also named Eve, who saved her master's life and was rewarded with her freedom and with 16 children. In 1962, the Batistes are the premiere family in their district, living in a big old mansion surrounded by rivers and swampland. Eve's father Louis (Samuel L. Jackson) is the local doctor.
Eve's Bayou has a Southern Fried feel mixed with a jazzy New Orleans groove. The cinematography is gorgeous, and the landscape truly is a central character in the film. Kasi Lemmons' directing is near-flawless, and Amy Vincent's cinematography deserved an Oscar nomination. The star has to be Jurnee Smollett's Eve. As she acts way above her years.
