Christina Ricci is still bitter over the promotional images her 2007 film "Black Snake Moan" used, saying that it "exploited" women.
The 28-year-old actress says that although she enjoyed making the film, the movie poster, in which she appears scantily-clad at the end of a chain held by co-star Samuel L. Jackson, is one of the most "disappointing and upsetting things" that has happened to her showbiz career.
She is quoted by showbizspy.com, "The way that movie was marketed was probably one of the most disappointing and upsetting things that's ever happened to me in my career. I have no interest in exploiting women any further than they've already been exploited."
"The whole reason I made that movie was to say, 'Oh yeah, that girl you called a slut probably went through this, so you might not want to use her and throw her away or judge her."
"All they [marketing bosses] cared about was college-age boys going to see it."
Ricci played a young nymphomaniac in the film, who was held by Jackson's character to "heal" her of her sinful ways. Justin Timberlake also starred in the film.
