Take a sharp turn into the unknown with this series featuring genre faves, cult classics, unsung gems and more.Hell hath no fury like Pam Grier scorned in Quentin Tarantino’s exceptional ode to ‘70s crime films!
Jackie Brown (Pam Grier) supplements her meager income as a stewardess by smuggling cash into the U.S. for gun runner Ordell Robbie (Samuel L. Jackson) — until the day an ATF agent and an L.A. cop bust her at the airport. The cops pressure her to help them bring down Ordell, threatening prison if she refuses.
With a sympathetic bail bondsman (Robert Forster), Jackie arrives at a bold plan to play the opposing forces against each other. Matters get complicated by Ordell’s confederates, Louis Gara (Robert De Niro) and Melanie Ralston (Bridget Fonda), who have agendas of their own. By appearing to co-operate with both sides, Jackie attempts to outfox them both and walk away with a half million dollar payday.
Don’t miss this rare screening of one of Tarantino’s best!
