''Slow Burn'' is an American drama thriller film starring Ray Liotta, Jolene Blalock and LL Cool J, which is notable for the extended period between production and eventual release. A crime drama, the film was produced in 2003, was finally given a showing at the 2005 Toronto Film Festival, and finally got a proper theatrical release in 2007. ==Plot== The movie begins with Nora Timmer (Jolene Blalock), a biracial (African and European) woman, being questioned by Ford Cole (Ray Liotta), the District Attorney. Nora, who also happens to be the Assistant District Attorney, claims to have been raped by Issac Duparde (Mekhi Phifer), prior to shooting him in the head in self-defense. Ty Trippin (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a journalist interviews Ford in his car; Ford anticipating both his first and second questions, surprises Ty by stating them to him before he asks Ford himself. Nora narrates her version of the story to Ford, meeting Issac at a music store, where he came on to her, asking to give her a ride on the rainy night they had first met about a week ago. Nora politely rebuffs his advances, but is left with no other option then to accept his ride in his car, when left stranded in the rain with no cab to respond to her calls. Issac locks the door to his car when Nora tries to leave his vehicle upon reaching her home, only to give her a music cassette as a ''compliment''. Nora tells Ford that Issac waited for her in her house one night, and grabbed her from behind, and he raped her. The plot thickens when Luther Pinks (LL Cool J), claiming to be an associate of the deceased Issac, shows up to meet Ford and narrates his version of the story to Ford, stating that Issac's death was not manslaughter, but murder. He states that Nora had seduced Issac into falling in love with her, and ultimately becoming obsessed with her. He tells Ford about an 'African violet flower' tattoo on Nora's backside to support his claims. Ford initially believes him, as he himself had seen it, making it evident that Nora had two lovers. Things get more complicated when Isaac's home is set a blaze and Ford receives an odd voicemail from the deceased suggestion a conspiracy involving Nora and 5am. Later Luther tells Ford of a deal Timmer supposedly offered Issac for his cousin who was recently booked on drug charges: if his aunt agrees to sell her home to an interested party his cousin will walk. Luther also reveals Nora's dirty little secret. That she isn't actually biracial at all, but instead is using being a minority to benefit not only her career but satisfy some strange obsession with being black.
