She is aware she raised more than a few eyebrows with her music, and that fans might be even more bewildered by her film 'The Human Contract.' The film stars Paz Vega, Jason Clarke and Idris Elba in a story about a troubled advertising executive who becomes involved with a beautiful but mysterious woman. In addition to scenes of rough sex and explosive violence, all of the characters are in emotional crises. 'Art should never be limited -- the beauty of art is that it gives us the freedom to go places where we wouldn't go to in our normal lives,' said Smith. 'Inside, I'm just so many different people. I go from the pretty girl on the red carpet to the singer at Ozzfest, spitting in the crowd. That's Jada.' Told that the film could be called 'kinky and twisted,' Smith almost jumped from her seat with glee -- ' `Kinky and twisted' -- I LOVE IT!' Although she would have liked for the film to have received a theatrical release, she is fine with it going straight to DVD. 'It was bad timing for that,' she said. 'Because of the economic climate, there's just less movies being released. And it's an extreme movie. In this emotional climate, there's only certain types of movies people want to see.' In fact it's hard to think of a project more diametrically opposed to 'HawthoRNe' and its warm, idealistic central character. 'I like unconventional stories,' said Smith. 'But I realize that I need to get a greater understanding of the universal mind if I want to develop my storytelling skills. It's about striking those emotional chords so that no matter what, no matter where you tell the story, the emotion penetrates the human soul. My husband is really good at gauging that pulse of an audience. I am not, and I have to get in touch with that.'
