FORTY SHADES OF BLUE tells the story
of Laura (Dina Korzun), a young Russian
woman living in Memphis with a much
older music legend (Rip Torn), and the
personal awakening she experiences in
the wake of her unfortunate affair with
his estranged son.
Alan James is a legend in Memphis, a
white man who produced black music
back in the 60’s and 70’s, the heyday of
Memphis Soul. Now in his later years, he’s
still living the high life in a comfortable
house in the right part of town. |

Alan lives with his girlfriend, Laura, a Russian beauty whom he met on tour in Moscow. Laura spends most of her time alone, raising their three-year-old son, Sam. A stranger in Memphis, she lives an comfortable but alienated life.
Alan also has a grown-up son, Michael, with whom he has a complicated relationship fueled by
jealousy, disappointment and anger. When Michael returns home for the first time in many years
the initial hostility he radiates towards his father's 'girl' develops into something much more, and
a messy, dangerous affair ensues.
In the bars and bedrooms of this very contemporary city, a love triangle forms, illuminating the
hearts and souls of these three tangled lives.
