About this item

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Quentin Tarantino presents the premiere of the JACKIE BROWN COLLECTORS SERIES DVD, complete with your favorite award-winning movie, all-star cast, and never-before-seen footage. What do a sexy stewardess (Pam Grier) , a street-tough gun runner (Samuel L. Jackson) , a lonely bail bondsman (Academy Award®-nominee Robert Forster) , a shifty ex-con (Robert DeNiro) , an earnest federal agent (Michael Keaton) , and a stoned-out beach bunny (Bridget Fonda) have in common? Theyre six players on the trail of a half million dollars in cash! The only questions are ... whos getting played ... and whos gonna make the big score! Combining an explosive mix of intense action and edgy humor, Tarantino scores again with the entertaining JACKIE BROWN! SET CONTAINS: The documentary Jackie Brown: How It Went Down is basically a vacuous cast-and-crew lovefest, but their enthusiasm is genuine, and the other bonus features are consistently worthwhile. A 54-minute interview with Quentin Tarantino seems excessive until you fully appreciate the writer-directors passionate devotion to movies and movie knowledge; film students are advised to listen attentively. The gem of the bunch, however, is the complete "Chicks with Guns" infomercial thats partially seen in Jackie Brown; its like the NRA meets the Snap-on tools calendar girls! For those seeking pop-cultural perspective, trailers for films starring Robert Forster and Pam Grier demonstrate the rigors of survival in Hollywood, making their Jackie Brown comebacks even more gratifying. At least one deleted scene is a classic, as Grier cracks up Michael Keaton with an improvised zinger. Digging deeper, theres a well-chosen archive of reviews and articles, and DVD-ROM features allowing movie playback with informative text and trivia or side by side with the complete screenplay. --Jeff Shannon
