Buena Vista Jackie Brown (Collector's Edition-Dts)

Written and directed by Quentin Tarantino and based on Elmore Leonard's bestseller Rum Punch, Jackie Brown is at once a comic crime caper and a story of real people who step over the line of legality from time to time. Five charismatic characters are chasing a half million dollars cash, and there's only one question: who's playing who. Jackie (Pam Grier) supplements her meager income as a stewardess by smuggling cash into the for U.S. gunrunner Ordell Robbie (Samuel L. Jackson)--until the day an ATF agent (Michael Keaton) and an L.A. cop (Michael Bowen) bust her at the airport. The cops pressure her to help them bring down Ordell, threatening prison if she refuses. With a sympathetic bailbondsman (Robert Forster), who understands her restlessness only too well, Jackie arrives at a bold almost foolhardy plan to play off these opposing forces against each other. Matters are complicated by Ordell's confederates, Louis Gara (Robert De Niro) and Melanie Ralston (Bridget Fonda) who have agendas of their own. By appearing to cooperate with both sides, Jackie attempts to outfox them both and walk away with a half million dollar payday. Combining an explosive mix of intense action and edgy humor, Quentin Tarantino scores again with the entertaining Jackie Brown!
