Elmore Leonard Tapestries
Description: Originally an author of westerns, Elmore Leonard became best known as a writer of crime fiction. The Elmore Leonard Design celebrates the distinguished career of one of the best known American writers and the author of such classics as Get Shorty, 3:10 To Yuma, Out of Sight and Raylan.
Description: Jackie Brown is a 1997 American crime film written and directed by Quentin Tarantino and starring Pam Grier in the title role, along with Samuel L. Jackson, Robert Forster, Bridget Fonda, Michael Keaton, and Robert De Niro in supporting roles. An adaptation of Elmore Leonard's 1992 novel Rum Punch, the film pays homage to 1970s blaxploitation films, particularly the films Coffy (1973) and Foxy Brown (1974), both of which also starred Grier in the title roles. As Tarantino's third directorial effort following Reservoir Dogs (1992) and Pulp Fiction (1994), it is the only feature-length film that Tarantino has adapted from a previous work.
