Jackie Brown**  
(US 1997)                                     
Miramax/A Band Apart/Mighty Mighty Afrodite. 154m.

A California air hostess gets her revenge on her racketeer boss by playing off between him and FBI agents.
One of the best of the Tarantino cycle, a smooth blend of his style and the author's together with added homages to Spaghetti Westerns and the blaxploitation era. Long but perfectly paced with a leisurely soundtrack and an impressive cast.
