    I know QT thinks it’s a failure now but I think Jackie Brown is one of his best films. And it’s because of the sentimentality. His movies are always interesting and have these interesting characters but there’s something about the character of Jackie that’s refreshing to me because she’s so real.And I might be biased because she’s a black woman like me, but I like how grounded this movie and protagonist is as much as I like how outlandish and surreal Inglorious Basterds is. The hardcore Tarantino fans who overlook Jackie Brown don’t know good cinema imo. It’s about more than ‘cool shots’ and ‘badass moments’. It’s about story and character and I love it. It really warms me whenever I watch it or hear that Delfonics song.

      @@TheTrueMasterOfTheFisthey. There’s some gems still being made. It’s rare but they’re out there. Great writing. Direction. Cinematography. Acting. There’s still a decent amount of gems that are relatively modern. Within the last 20-30 years. One of the most important pieces for me of the many many many that create the masterpieces is the music composition. Ennio morricone blessed us with a lot in the last few decades before his death. 😢.
      Quentin Tarantino still alive The coen brothers are still alive. Wes Anderson, Ridley Scott. Steven Spielberg.
      John Williams is still alive. Zimmerman. Sam Raimi. There’s still a lot of potential out there. And new master directors actors and composers as well are coming one day or already amongst us. Sometimes it’s indie films. Sometimes we get lucky and it becomes main stream. Either way I still have hope for them. Do you know what sounds good right now? Either a band of Brothers style mini series or a movie that uses a little bit of historical accuracy, but still enough fiction and plot armor to keep it interesting like fury. But instead it a B-17 flying Fortress crew story.

    Great interview for a great movie. I'd say Jackie Brown is maybe #2 (for me) in my rank of Tarantino movies, with Pulp Fiction at #1 ... oh, but, Reservoir Dogs... anyway. AWESOME role, epic role. Pam Grier has always been a queen and goddess whose altar I would kneel before. Ohh she's great. Pam's reclaiming her own fame and her own career was and is the main reason why I like the movie. Plus, it is a damn good movie.
    The soundtrack is also perfect! Oh yeah! It's my favorite Tarantino soundtrack, BECAUSE of Pam Grier, walking away, then driving that car, "Up on 110th Street" blasting! OH that ending, Pam's face; she owns the movie. Tarantino really was at his best here and so was she. Heck, the entire cast (and crew, and all who worked on this movie) were excellent. Pam Grier deserves all honors for her work in the title role. Quentin Tarantino deserves his props for writing the role, having the vision to do so, and for all of this, too.
    It is beyond entertainment; the movie Jackie Brown is way beyond just some show you put on the TV. I liked Bridget Fonda, as an actor, too; she was also fantastic. Everyone was good in this movie. Samuel L Jackson was so slick. Superb screenplay,; perfect 1997 time capsule, with all the actors at their best.
    PAM Grier though! Her look on her drive away from the drama was so satisfying to me, who'd found 1991's Thelma and Louise drive away to be not as pleasing for so many years, until I got to groove to Jackie Brown's determination and freedom as she made her epic escape. It was like, daaaaamn.

    It's really bad how our collective unconscious biases just write certain films with Black performances out of history - even when we enjoyed them at the time. People forget Jackie Brown in the Quentin Tarantino filmography just like they forget one of Denzel Washington's most important performances, Malcolm X. It's like a White balance in our heads. I think Jackie Brown is among the very best of QT's films and it's a shame it's never translated into a Pam Grier renaissance.

      The fact that it was never a hit is partly about race. It’s weird that you changed what I said to make it sound like I pretended this was a big film when it’s one of the least talked about of Tarantino’s works. As it stands, it is a truly excellent Elmore Leonard adaptation while still retaining QT’s unmistakable voice.

      Don’t know about that. Jamie Foxx has been due a major career bounce for a while and he certainly earns it in Django - alas it didn’t really happen. All the attention went to Christoph Waltz from what I recall.

    That film is a masterpiece. Just rewatched yesterday for the 4th time after a decade. I only recently maybe because im older and an adult now that the first times I’ve seen it, the emotions in the eyes of the characters are so moving in those key moments. Samuel L Jackson and Robert Forster In that scene towards the end, in the car when they arrive to the office to meet Jackie. That exchange is all in the eyes and in Sam you see the humanity in Ordell when, in a strange way, he’s been the terrorizer, but becomes vulnerable because he knows maybe this might be the end for him but max looks him straight in the eye, empathetic eyes reassuring him that nothing shady is going on. Its like the role’s switch. Even when after Micheal Keaton shoots him in there and the close up on ordell dead, he still had that look of vulnerability and surprise, you almost feel sorry for him, even though he wpuld have had no pb killing them all in there for his money. Ofc last scene Pam grier in the car singing along to across 110th street with tears in her eyes as she leaves max. Iconic ❤

      Paul Staker well actually Charlie Rose had Quentin as a guest for an hour, and then came Pam for the 15min. That’s why he said at the beginning we talked enough about him, now you.

    “Jackie Brown” endeared both Pam Grier and Quentin Tarantino to me - I felt like she brought bravery to a movie that QT wrote without gratuitous violence usually a part of his “spaghetti western” styled films. Pam Grier is also beautiful.
