The Story
Tarantino provides a solid homage to the blaxploitation films of the 1970's with Jackie Brown. The film centers around a flight attendant (Pam Grier) who is stuck in the middle of a sting operation between the feds and an arms dealer (Samuel L. Jackson). Struggling with her career, she tries to play all sides to emerge with a financial farewell present.
