My favourite part of this film is when Max Cherry sees Jackie Brown for the first time. Tarantino perfectly captures the true feeling of "love at first sight" in that moment, and Robert Forster and Pam Grier have such beautiful chemistry together.

This was Forster’s career resurgence, something that Tarantino does with has-been actors such as revitalizing Travolta’s career with Pulp Fiction. Forster went on to star as Ed the vacuum salesman in both the last season of Breaking Bad and follow up movie El Camino, which coincidentally was released on the day he died in 2019.

As a straight ahead crime thriller, Jackie Brown has a very different feel from most of Tarantino's other films. For good reason -- rather than a fully original screenplay, this one is based on a novel by noted crime author Elmore Leonard. Leonard has had numerous movies based on his novels and short stories (Get Shorty, for example) and one of my favorites that often gets overlooked is Out of Sight, with George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez, directed by Steven Soderbergh. Highly recommended. LOVE this movie. Thanks again for picking such a great one!

I personally think it's his best. Certainly the best acting. In many ways it doesn't try to be clever it just is what it is. The actors are able to play things slowly and subtly which makes the characters very believable. The sex and action scenes are ugly, raw and disappointing as they should be, crime isn't as fun and rewarding as films typically try to portray it. Pam Grier and Robert Forster are brilliant actors and their relationship in plotting people against each other is just beautiful.

If you possess a quantity of a drug greater than a certain amount, the law presumes it's more than one person can consume on his or her own, so they figure you must intend to distribute it to others.

FYI: In the United States, if you are arrested and charged with a crime, there was several ways for you to released from jail while you are waiting for your court proceedings to being. If you are charged with minor crimes and/or you have no history of committing crimes, the Judge may release you on your own recognizance. That means no money is required and the Judge is going to trust you to show up for your court proceedings. If you are charged with more serious crimes, the Judge can either 1 - Deny you bail. This means that you will be held in jail until your court proceedings begin. 2 - The Judge can require a Cash Bond. The seriousness of the crime determines the amount of the Bond. This means that you must deposit the FULL amount of the Cash Bond with the court. The advantage of a Cash Bond is if you can afford the Cash Bond and show up for all your court dates, the Court will return the entire amount of the Cash Bond to you. The amount is either determined by the Judge or it can be determined by the laws in the state. For example, State Law may state that those charged with murdering a policeman are ineligible for either a Cash Bond or a Surety Bond. 3 - The Judge can require a Surety Bond. A Surety Bond involves a 3rd Party like Bail Bondsman Max Cherry. You pay the Bondsman 10% of the full amount of the Surety Bond. The Bondsman issues a document to the Court pledging to pay the full amount of the Surety Bond. If the Defendant flees the jurisdiction while free on Bond, there are laws that permit either the Bondsman or his authorized agent (e.g. a Bounty Hunter) to track down the Defendant and return them to the Court's jurisdiction. In this way, the Bondsman frees himself of paying the full amount of the Bond. The 10% charge is nonrefundable except in certain circumstances. It depends on the fine print in the legal agreement.

Won't lie, of all the films Tarantino has done I think I enjoy this one the best of all for three reasons: ( a ) He adapted the plot of someone else's novel to get this script, and ( b ) It's a heist film told from many different perspectives, sometimes out of chronological order. Tarantino of course was no stranger to these tropes (and neither was the film industry) but he has rarely done a film as potentially confusing as this in such a straightforward manner. You could watch this several times and still be noticing new details, but you'll always understand what the main action is; and ( c ) While other Tarantino films have way more stars on the cast, this one is the best casting against type for most of the supporting cast and that's what makes it fun in my mind. Famously, Sam Jackson found a role in practically every Tarantino film since "Jackie Brown" with only 1 or 2 exceptions; this is the only Tarantino film with DeNiro, though. Bonus points if you recognize Tiny Lister AKA "Zeus" (Wrestling character), also the guy who played the character of the President in "The Fifth Element".

I had to jet, Dawn, so I couldn't finish watching your reaction. But Pam Grier up to this point had more B-movie action roles than a bag of groceries...To see her get a lead role like this and do so great made me realize she was a better actress than the industry gave her credit for, and props to Tarentino for casting her in this underrated gem.

I know that three minutes is a ridiculously long time, but you don't have to sound that surprised about it.

Marie: "He just shot him for no reason, he just shot him, he did absolutely nothing wrong..." Me: He shot Melanie, He lost 1 million dollars, he began to threaten him... 😂

Oh yes 👍👍 I'm excited to see Dawn's reaction to this. In my honest opinion it's Tarantino's best movie ever ! 👏👏👏. It's got everything crime, a heist, humor, and romance. I think the main thing that makes it so good is that Tarantino didn't write it. Adapted from the novel rum punch by the great Elmore Leonard. And it's the most believable Tarantino film. I mean Pulp is great but so much of it is so far fetched. Enjoy it Dawn.

I think if everyone watched every Tarantino movie they’d likely find something they like. I’m a pretty big fan - I don’t absolutely love everything of everything but he has a few that I just never get sick of. On my Letterbox 😂😂 recently put into it by my daughter - I was like “1 Tarantino movie only in my 4” there’s currently 2. The first was Jackie Brown. I think it’s my favourite Tarantino movie. I like the fact that while it is violent as hell - it’s not sort of “constant” or kinda not out of nowhere. Something like Pulp Fiction where everything is calm and then BAM! Like a lunch in the face shits happening. In Jackie Brown you can kinda see Ordell gonna kill Beaumont. You can kinda see he is gonna kill Louis. You can kinda see Ordell is waking into a trap at the end. The performances in this movie drive it. Everyone is perfectly cast & everyone plays it perfectly. Doesn’t hurt that I’m a huge Michael Keaton fan. Pam Grier was made for this shit. Couldn’t have been played any better by anyone else. Sexy too goddamn she was like 47-49 or something here I think? Yeah I couldn’t not have this and Pulp Fiction in my top 4. I only just found out somewhere too - I’m pretty sure the woman who’s working the register when Jackie buys the suits - she was 1 of the girls at the start of From Dusk Til Dawn in the liquor store 🤷♂️

I am not a Quentin Tarantino fan. Frankly, I think his movies are hit-or-miss. But this one is definitley a direct HIT! Probably his second best, second to "Reservoir Dogs." Indeed, this, "Dogs" are "Django," which is a distant third, are his only three that I think are better than mediocre. I'm glad you enjoyed it...

Hey Dawn Marie, Oh boy you did a great job on this movie I haven't laughed so hard in months ( been going thru tragedy) This movie you need to see more than once cause I guarantee you'll miss a lot. Melanie the surfer girl stays rent free at the beach house which I don't blame her Ordell takes care of her. Mr Walker the name referenced is I believe is the drug lord thats down in Mexico. The coke in Jackie's bag was put there by Melanie as a gift for Mr Walker. Ordell helped start Mr Walker out. Jackie was working both sides. So yes its quite confusing.
