Jackie Brown
Rating: ***
Date Seen: 1997-12-30
This movie bears Quentin Tarantino's
wonderful flare for film making. The
cast did an excellent job. Samuel L
Jackson played the role of the gun
dealer with his usual flare. Robert
De Niro did well as his sidekick. Bridget
Fonda, also a great performance.
I was paritcularly surprised to see
Michael Keaton's nicely done performance
as an ATF agent. It's been a long time
since Batman. Pam Grier, previously
unknown to me, did a marvelous job as
Jackie Brown, the flight attandant and
money runner. The dialog, as
expected in a Tarantino film, was
spellbinding. Lots of unconventional
camera angles and high emphasis on
the soundtrack give Jackie Brown an
edge unique to Tarantino films. This
was a movie well worth seeing.
