  • Rumor has it the original ending involved Justin Timberlake's character shooting Samuel L. Jackson in the back of the head during the scene where Christina Ricci sings "This Little Light of Mine". Director Craig Brewer decided, however, that it would be better to make the film happy, and with a very positive ending.
  • The title of the film derives from the Blind Lemon Jefferson song recorded in 1927.
  • Samuel L. Jackson learned to play the guitar for this film, while completing production of Snakes on a Plane (2006). This film was the other of two films released the same year that Jackson starred in with the word "snake" in the title.
  • Christina Ricci wore an actual forty pound chain during filming. Craig Brewer brought various different chains on the set and told Ricci to choose the one that suited her best.
  • The electric guitar that Lazarus plays is a Gibson ES-335.
