S4E49: Jackie Brown

The third film by Quentin Tarantino, Jackie Brown is an homage to the blaxploitation movies of the 70s and 80s- specifically those starring Pam Grier, who stars as an airline hostess out of luck and out of time, who plays the cops (Michael Keaton) off against an arms dealer (Samuel L Jackson) in pursuit of half a million simoleons. I don't know what happened in this one. Maybe Diabolik released some Exhilarating Gas into the recording studio before we began or something. ----- FREE PALESTINE My friend Ahmed still needs to feed his family and afford medicine.
