Description by OLDIES.com:

"Jackie Brown" is a 1997 American crime film written and directed by Quentin Tarantino, adapted from Elmore Leonard's 1992 novel, Rum Punch. The film stars Pam Grier in the titular role of Jackie Brown, a resourceful flight attendant who becomes embroiled in smuggling money between the United States and Mexico. Alongside Grier, the ensemble cast includes Samuel L. Jackson, Robert Forster, Bridget Fonda, Michael Keaton, and Robert De Niro in supporting roles.

Tarantino's "Jackie Brown" pays homage to 1970s blaxploitation cinema, particularly drawing inspiration from films like Coffy and Foxy Brown, both of which featured Grier in leading roles. Notably, "Jackie Brown" is the sole feature-length film in Tarantino's repertoire that is based on pre-existing material.

Upon its release on December 25, 1997, by Miramax, "Jackie Brown" garnered positive reviews and achieved commercial success, grossing $74.7 million worldwide against a $12 million budget. The film received acclaim for its nuanced characters, intricate plot, and stylish direction. Additionally, it revitalized the careers of Pam Grier and Robert Forster, both of whom earned critical acclaim and award nominations for their performances. Forster received an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor, while Jackson and Grier garnered Golden Globe Award nominations.
