Jackie Brown (1997)
Manage episode 459739810 series 3597335
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! For the very first Spineless episode of 2025, Brennan and Nick do a deep dive on Quentin Tarantino's most underrated film: Jackie Brown. A stacked cast, including Rochester native Robert Forster! An expertly orchestrated heist-esque sequence! Countless throwbacks to 70s Blaxploitation films, including Jackie Brown herself, THE Pam Grier! It's all here in QT's third feature, folks, and we talk about all that and more as we fantasize about a Criterion release. No tangents to be heard, especially not an extended one about an actor who isn't even in Jackie Brown. That would be insane.
