About this product

Product Information

Quentin Tarantino returns to the crime genre once again with this adaptation of Elmore Leonard's RUM PUNCH. Transplanting Leonard's crime story from Miami to Tarantino's city of choice, Los Angeles, JACKIE BROWN cruises along smoothly, much like the film's 1970s soul soundtrack. The film follows Jackie Brown (Pam Grier), a flight attendant who makes extra cash by running drugs and cash for sleazebag Ordell Robbie (Samuel L. Jackson). When Jackie sees the opportunity to make off with a large chunk of change, she begins to play everyone around her, including two detectives who are threatening her with jail time if she doesn't rat out Ordell, and a sympathetic bail bondsman (Robert Forster) who finds himself falling for Jackie. Tarantino sets a pace that is laid back and groovy, building to an eventual climax that determines whether or not Jackie walks away with the booty. In much the same way that Tarantino resuscitated John Travolta's career with PULP FICTION, he does the same thing here with Grier and Forster. Overall, JACKIE BROWN is a less in-your-face effort than Tarantino's previous films, but it's this downshift in gears that makes it so refreshing.

  • Underrated Indeed

    Out of all the Quentin Tarantino films, this is the one that is least talked about. And why? It may be based on a Elmore Leonard story but it features Pam Grier as the title character as well as Bridget Fonda, Robert De Niro, Robert Forster and Samuel L. "The Man" Jackson. Not to mention, many Blaxploitation movies and some 70's movies are paid tribute here. The action is choice and the plans set forth before the end of the climax are plausible. Perhaps, a little change of status for it is in order.
