Season 3, Ep. 3: Jackie Brown

Reel Poppycock's love for "Jackie Brown" and Pam Grier is cranked to the MAX; as we CHERRY pick some of our favorite scenes, songs, and performances to analyze from the 1997 film. This is the third and final installment of our 3 film unit on director Quentin Tarantino. Ed says "they don't make em like that anymore" when talking about the classic track "Across 110th St." by Bobby Womack, and KC replies "I don't think they're allowed to. It's like a state law." The soundtrack for this film is phenomenal, with diegetic use of sound when cassette tapes of The Brothers Johnson and The Delfonics are popped into the rides of Samuel L. Jackson's Ordell Robbie, and Robert Forster's Max Cherry respectively. Trevor delves into some of the Hollywood royalty family history of Bridget Fonda, and lays out some of the classic performances of Robert DeNiro's storied career in the Reel Basic Facts. Lots of laughs, and little Poppycock, in this episode; unless you want to count the reasoning for Max Cherry making his final decision in regards to Jackie Brown in the climax of the film. So stand ten toes down with us one last time for Tarantino, and enjoy this episode of Reel Poppycock!   00:01:45 Reel Basic Facts 00:20:24 "Across 110th St." / Summary 00:29:44 Machine Gun Funk 00:45:07 "Strawberry Letter 23"  01:05:41 *Cherry* picking The Delfonics / Further Film Analysis 01:48:16 Poppycock Round-Up 02:02:18 Outro / Spooky Season Teaser   {credit to all respective artists for song clips used in this episode and all rights reserved} - "Across 110th St." by Bobby Womack - "Strawberry Letter 23" by The Brothers Johnson - "Didn't I (Blow Your Mind This Time)" by The Delfonics       Instagram: @reelpoppycock YouTube: Reel Poppycock  Host K.C. @dangerbrewer on Instagram  Host Ed Lanier @edlaniermusic on Instagram Host Trevor Boland (He is old, find him on Facebook)
