God I just sit there with the biggest grin on my face from start to finish with this thing. For some reason, watching it this time I found myself really paying attention to Robert DeNiro, and it struck me - is this the last time this man has acted? Like, created a character that's not Robert DeNiro? He's really very good here, totally scary in a benign sort-of-useless way.Jason Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18254334131909339157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19295440.post-1170683727439352992007-02-06T00:55:00.000+11:002007-02-06T00:55:00.000+11:00Definitelt one of my preferred QT films.

They just do and go on there way, but here they need to think and work stuff out. So good.Glenn Dunkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05424659636310160482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19295440.post-1170482752404896832007-02-03T17:05:00.000+11:002007-02-03T17:05:00.000+11:00I really dig Jackie Brown.

What I find really interesting about the film are the moments of normalcy that are discussed. I mean, the conversation Jackie and Robert Forster's character have about getting old while they're sitting at her kitchen table ... You just don't see that in films. The whole mall set-up is so well-crafted too.Fanboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16689739089464311987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19295440.post-1170466904044880122007-02-03T12:41:00.000+11:002007-02-03T12:41:00.000+11:00Ja, agreed.

I really really really like <I>Pulp Fiction</I>, but always felt there was some stuff that just wasn't as 10/10 as a lot of the rest is. <BR/><BR/>I always have that problem with movies that have multiple stories. THere's usually one that lets the side down in the long run.<BR/><BR/><I>Jackie Brown</I> on the other hand... wow. The scene at the mall with the multiple points of view? That's some crazy movie-making of the highest order.Glenn Dunkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05424659636310160482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19295440.post-1170457756150896542007-02-03T10:09:00.000+11:002007-02-03T10:09:00.000+11:00that's some jackie brown love if i've ever read so...that's some jackie brown love if i've ever read some.RChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11340006144797496514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19295440.post-1170427737990590162007-02-03T01:48:00.000+11:002007-02-03T01:48:00.000+11:00WORD WORD WORD.

I mean, I appreciated it for it's style and Q's as-always perfect script, but I never <I>loved</I> it. (Well, the scenes with Uma are pretty golden.) But right outta the gate I fell head over heels with <I>JB</I>. It's prob in my top 5 movies of the 90's. <BR/><BR/>Robert Forster's actually from my hometown. I was working at the local indy movie theater in town during college when JB came out, and we had a premiere for the movie with Forster there, so I got to meet him; he was a super nice guy.Jason Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18254334131909339157noreply@blogger.com
