Life Is Hot In Cracktown (2009)

Life Is Hot in Cracktown is a gritty 2009 ensemble drama tracing intersecting lives in a neighborhood consumed by addiction, and it features Kerry Washington in one of the boldest turns of her career. She goes fully nude in a raw, explicit performance worlds away from her polished network television image, and the 1 scene collected here shows exactly why fans still bring this film up. It's rough viewing by design, but essential for anyone charting Washington's most daring work.
