The cast of Black Sails in a promo for Season 3
The Big Picture When we look at it through a certain lens, Black Sails is a show that is all about power. First and foremost, of course, the series concerns itself with the power of a great story. Its ending, in particular, is entirely dedicated to how art shapes our perception of history and how, when push comes to shove, all we have is a bunch of disjointed tales that may or may not be true and a flag that says a lot more than a few words.
Black Sails AdventureDramaFantasyHistory Follows Captain Flint and his pirates twenty years prior to Robert Louis Stevenson's classic novel "Treasure Island." And, indeed, after the infamous slapping scene, Max becomes a favorite in the eyes of Jack Rackham, the new owner of the deceased Noonan's brothel, and is eventually promoted to madam. As such, she gains control of the flow of secrets that runs through Nassau, for every pirate on every ship blabbers to her girls about what prize their captain is planning on taking next.
Now, one has to understand a simple thing about Max: if she does what she does, it is not out of cruelty or vengeance. In the end, what she wants is what she considers the best for Nassau. With a tragic past as an enslaved child who witnessed her father give a life of privilege to his legitimate daughter while she was treated like cattle, Max wants a world in which she can have access to all that she was once denied.
