Blog Pick Week #8

   You would be hard pressed to find someone that never heard of Quentin Tarantino. The Writer/Director, burst onto the scene with his crime drama "Reservoir Dogs" in the early 1990's. Followed by his Oscar winning, and critically acclaimed "Pulp Fiction". Known for writing great dialogue in his films, Quentin has a cult following that seems to be growing everyday. His characters that he creates in each of his films, leave lasting impressions in the minds of audiences everywhere. This could not be more evident in our pick for this week, the third film by Quentin Tarantino, a movie called "Jackie Brown".
   "Jackie Brown", is about a gunrunner named Ordell Robbie, played by Samuel L. Jackson, who is using a flight attendant friend Jackie Brown, played by Pam Grier, to transport his half million dollars he has in Mexico back to the States. In the process an ex-con, beach bunny, bail bondsman, and two ATF agents try and get there hands on the loot. Who will get all that money? Loaded with great actors, Tarantino's stellar dialogue and script, make Jackie Brown a great movie. Throughout the film, you get the perspective of each characters point of view and you see how each sub plot intersects with the main plot.
   "Jackie Brown", may unfortunately find itself in the shadows of his other films like "Pulp Fiction" or "Kill Bill", great films themselves, but "Jackie Brown" is just as good. If you liked any other movie Quentin Tarantino did, or are looking for a good movie to see, then certainly check this weeks pick out. Until next time happy viewing.
