Jackie Brown

I love this movie. Pam Grier at her finest (yes, both connotations apply). As an aging flight attendant trying to get herself one last piece of the pie, or die trying, Jackie Brown is as ambitious as she is crafty. Killer cast: Robert Deniro, Bridget Fonda, Samuel Jackson, and Robert Forster. And of course with Tarantino, the soundtrack is a must have. This movie came out in 1997 with lukewarm attendance and reviews, but
over a decade later, I still find it to be an excellent heist film with a heart.
