Continuity mistake: Pay attention in the beginning of the movie, when Ordell is showing some "girls with guns" to De Niro. While he suggests to run fast the tape, he presses the REWIND key. The expected one would be the FF key. (00:04:25)
Jackie Brown (1997)
Plot summary
Directed by: Quentin Tarantino
Starring: Samuel L. Jackson, Robert De Niro, Michael Keaton, Bridget Fonda, Robert Forster, Pam Grier
44 year old flight attendant Jackie Brown (Grier) gets caught with gun dealer Ordell Robbie's (Jackson) money and to get the ATF off her back she sets up Ordell with her new friend, a bail bondsman named Max Cherry (Forster). But what the ATF doesn't know, is that they are part of her wild plan to get Ordell's half million dollars and get off scott free. However, she has to do it under the noses of both Ordell, the ATF man and a local cop. What she doesn't know is Ordell's blonde beach bunny (Fonda) wants the money for herself as does Ordell's ex-con friend (DeNiro).
Ordell Robbie: See, that shit works my nerves, you being all buddy-buddy with that motherfucker.
Jackie Brown: If I wasn't so buddy-buddy with that motherfucker, none of this would work.
Trivia: The white Honda Civic that Jackie Brown uses in the movie is a left over from Pulp Fiction - it was going to be used as a second to the car that Butch crashes into Marcellus Wallace but the stunt went right the first time, and it was never used.
