Jackie Brown (1997) Jackie Brown (1997) I. Handlung Nach Pulp Fiction stellt Tarantino sich einer besonderen Heraus- forderung und realisiertmit Jackie Brown seine bislang einzige Romanverfilmung. Grundlage für den Film ist RumPunch (1992) vonElmoreLeonard, dessen Hauptfigur den Namen Jackie Burke trägt. Tarantino nennt sie Jackie Brown, eine vonder Schauspiele- rin PamGrier inspirierte Figur,denn diese spielt die Hauptrolle in Jack Hills Blaxploitation-Film Foxy Brown (1974). DieAnspielung ist auch an dem sehr ähnlichen Schrifttyp mit geschwungenen Ober- und Unterlängen zu erkennen, den Tarantino für das Film- plakat gewählt hat. Damit wirdseine Leonard-Adaption zugleich zu einem Grier-Film, allerdings nicht im üblichen Blaxploitation- Stil. Jackie Brown spielt 1995 in Los Angeles und handelt vonder 44-jährigen Stewardess Jacqueline Brown, die beruflich für eine mexikanische Airline und nebenher für den Waffenschmuggler Ordell Robbie als Geldkurier tätig ist. Dieser beauftragt den Kau- tionsagenten MaxCherrydamit, einen seiner Mitarbeiter,Beau- mont Livingston, der gerade ins Gefängnis gekommen ist und somit seinen Auftraggeber möglicherweise verpfeifen könnte, frei- zukaufen, damit er ihn erschießen kann. Da Beaumont aber,bevor er getötet wird, bereits einen Teil sei- nes Wissens preisgegeben hat, wirdJackie am Flughafen wegen Schwarzgeld und Kokain im Gepäck festgenommen. Sieschlägt das Angebot, mit der Polizei zu kooperieren, zunächst aus und muss wegen illegalen Drogenhandels ins Gefängnis. Ordell plant erneut eine Freilassung auf Kaution mit anschließendem Mord. Maxholt Jackie jedoch vomGefängnis ab und warnt sie. Darauf- hin entwendet sie seinen Revolver,mit dessen Hilfe sie Ordell, als er sie töten will, zu einem Handel nötigt: Siewerde der Polizei nur scheinbar helfen, in Wirklichkeit aber eine halbe Million Dollar für Ordell vonMexiko nach Los Angeles schmuggeln. Ordell be- zieht weitereHelfer in den Plan ein, während Jackie heimlich mit F6069-Kaul_Palmier.indd 67 15.03.16 07:01 68 Jackie Brown Max’ Hilfe sowohl Ordell als auch die Polizei hinters Licht führt, um das Geld selbst einzukassieren. Nach der Geldübergabe in einem Einkaufskomplex wirdOrdell voneinem der Polizisten erschossen und Jackie kann mit einer knappen halben Million Dollar nach Spa- nien ausreisen, weil sie der Polizei einen Schmuggel-Betrag vonnur 50 000 Dollar genannt hat. II. Produktion und Rezeption Jackie Brown wirdimSommer 1997 in Los Angeles gedreht, etwa ein Jahr nach Beginn der Arbeit am Drehbuch, und zwar teilweise am Flughafen LAX, größtenteils jedoch in der Gegend vonSouth Bay. DieDrehzeit beträgt etwa zehn Wochen. Weihnachten 1997 hat der Film in den USA Premiere. DieKosten belaufen sich auf zwölf Millionen Dollar.Die Idee, einen Roman vonElmoreLeo- nardzuverfilmen, besteht schon lange vorder Drehzeit: „I had always wanted to do an ElmoreLeonardnovel (he was the first novelist Iread as akid that really spoke to me) and it was aquestion of trying to find the right one.“1 Tarantino hat mehrereRomane vonLeonardimAuge (beispielsweise Freaky Deaky und Killshot), entscheidet sich dann aber für RumPunch,nachdem er ihn noch einmal gelesen hat. Leonardgibt ihm freie Hand, seinen eigenen Film daraus zu machen.2 Tarantino hält sich im Wesentlichen an die Vorlage, lässt aber einige Nebenhandlungen aus und verlagert den Schauplatz vonFlorida nach Kalifornien, wo er sich besser aus- kennt. Außerdem entscheidet er sich mit der Besetzung Jackies durch PamGrier dafür,aus der weißen Hauptfigur Jackie Burke die Afro-Amerikanerin Jackie Brownzumachen. DerName wird zum Titel gewählt, wodurch der Fokus auf die Figur Jackie ver- schoben wird, während er bei Leonarddurch den Titel RumPunch auf dem Handel zwischen Ordell und den Kolumbianern liegt. Jackie taucht im Roman erst im vierten Kapitel auf.DaTarantino großen Wert auf die Geschichte und deren Charakterelegt, ver- zichtet er auf einige Schießereien, die sich im Roman ereignen. Allerdings kürzt er auch die Ehe- beziehungsweise Scheidungsge- schichte vonMax Cherryheraus. Dessen Charakter erscheint im F6069-Kaul_Palmier.indd 68 15.03.16 07:01.

  • Elmore Leonard, 1925-2013
    ELMORE LEONARD, 1925-2013 Elmore Leonard was born October 11, 1925 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Due to his father’s position working for General Motors, Leonard’s family moved numerous times during his childhood, before finally settling in Detroit, MI in 1934. Leonard went on to graduate high school in Detroit in 1943, and joined the Navy, serving in the legendary Seabees military construction unit in the Pacific theater of operations before returning home in 1946. Leonard then attended the University of Detroit, majoring in English and Philosophy. Plans to assist his father in running an auto dealership fell through on his father’s early death, and after graduating, Leonard took a job writing for an ad agency. He married (for the first of three times) in 1949. While working his day job in the advertising world, Leonard wrote constantly, submitting mainly western stories to the pulp and/or mens’ magazines, where he was establishing himself with a strong reputation. His stories also occasionally caught the eye of the entertainment industry and were often optioned for films or television adaptation. In 1961, Leonard attempted to concentrate on writing full-time, with only occasional free- lance ad work. With the western market drying up, Leonard broke into the mainstream suspense field with his first non-western novel, The Big Bounce in 1969. From that point on, his publishing success continued to increase – with both critical and fan response to his works helping his novels to appear on bestseller lists. His 1983 novel La Brava won the Edgar Award for best mystery novel of the year.

  • Looking Back: Elmore Leonard Elmore Leonard (B. Oct. 11, 1925
    Looking Back: Elmore Leonard Elmore Leonard (b. Oct. 11, 1925), American novelist & screenwriter, died on August 20. – Aug. 20, Leonard was best known for writing crime fiction: fast-paced novels about ex-cons, aspiring kidnappers, gun dealers and loan sharks, and the world-weary lawmen who chase them, often as not shaking their heads over how damned dumb criminals can be. For more about Leonard, his style, and best stuff, follow the link. Leonard was born in New Orleans, but his family moved frequently. In 1934, they settled in Detroit, which remained his home for the rest of his life. After serving in World War Two, he began his writing career while working with an advertising agency. His earliest novels were Westerns, but he went on to specialize in crime fiction and suspense thrillers. He became known as the Dickens of Detroit for the use of that locale in his stories. His best-known works include Get Shorty, Out of Sight, Rum Punch, Glitz, Cuba Libre and Mr. Majestyk. His western stories include ones that became the films Hombre and 3:10 to Yuma. In an article called ‘Why Elmore Leonard Matters,” Laura Williams said “his novels were always expertly plotted and sardonically funny” but what made it “impossible to forget about anything Elmore Leonard ever wrote was his voice.” His writing was short on description but filled with dialogue that “sounds exactly like the way people speak.” Like Mark Twain, Leonard believed he could “tell his readers everything worth knowing about Americans by showing them how we talk. In a 2001 essay, Leonard advised aspiring writers to “go easy on the adverbs” and skip the “hooptedoodle.

  • Djibouti / Elmore Leonard Marketing QA
    A Q&A With Elmore Leonard Djibouti is a mad mix of pirates, terrorists, and iconoclastic Americans, including a wealthy playboy, an ambitious documentary filmmaker, and a terrorist. How did you get the idea for the story? I make it up as I go along. I seldom begin writing a novel with a fixed story in mind. I had an interest in the Malaccan Straits pirates, but then shifted to Somalia where the real pirate action was taking place. A focus on terrorism was the next logical step. I then thought, wouldn’t it be interesting to see such a story unfold through the eyes of a documentary filmmaker. As for the wealthy playboy, I always have a guy like that ready to use when I need him. Have you visited Djibouti and did you meet any modern day pirates like those in the book? No on both accounts. But I know Djibouti very well from my research. Your main character, Dara, sympathizes with the Somali pirates. Why? What's your take on contemporary piracy? She sees them initially as what they are or at least were: Somali fisherman battling big foreign interests depleting their fishing waters. Piracy was payback. She also thought they were a fun loving bunch. The young American terrorist Jama is a calculating badass. Would you offer some insight into his character and motivations? He’s a man on a mission to destroy. What’s the mission of any home grown Al Qaeda? To serve Allah or make a name for one’s self. Dara and her companion Xavier speculate on which actors would star in an action feature based on the making of her pirate documentary.

  • ABSTRACT TRUE CRIME DOES PAY: NARRATIVES of WRONGDOING in FILM and LITERATURE Andrew Burt, Ph.D. Department of English Norther
    ABSTRACT TRUE CRIME DOES PAY: NARRATIVES OF WRONGDOING IN FILM AND LITERATURE Andrew Burt, Ph.D. Department of English Northern Illinois University, 2017 Scott Balcerzak, Director This dissertation examines true crime’s ubiquitous influence on literature, film, and culture. It dissects how true-crime narratives affect crime fiction and film, questioning how America’s continual obsession with crime underscores the interplay between true crime narratives and their fictional equivalents. Throughout the 20th century, these stories represent key political and social undercurrents such as movements in religious conservatism, issues of ethnic and racial identity, and developing discourses of psychology. While generally underexplored in discussions of true crime and crime fiction, these currents show consistent shifts from a liberal rehabilitative to a conservative punitive form of crime prevention and provide a new way to consider these undercurrents as culturally-engaged genre directives. I track these histories through representative, seminal texts, such as Theodore Dreiser’s An American Tragedy (1925), W.R. Burnett’s Little Caesar (1929, Jim Thompson’s The Killer Inside Me (1952), and Barry Michael Cooper’s 1980s new journalism pieces on the crack epidemic and early hip hop for the Village Voice, examining how basic crime narratives develop through cultural changes. In turn, this dissertation examines film adaptations of these narratives as well, including George Stevens’ A Place in the Sun (1951), Larry Cohen’s Black Caesar (1972), Michael Winterbottom’s The Killer Inside Me (2010), and Mario Van Peeble’s New Jack City (1991), accounting for how the medium changes the crime narrative. In doing so, I examine true crime’s enduring resonance on crime narratives by charting the influence of commonly overlooked early narratives, such as execution sermons and murder ballads.

  • Raylan by Elmore Leonard
    Raylan by Elmore Leonard Few people get a NY Times obit on the front page. Elmore Leonard did, after a long and distinguished career as a writer. He died on August 20. Some sixty years ago, Leonard began writing Westerns, five of which became movies. Hombre, named by the Western Writers of America one of the best 25 Westerns ever written, became a movie starring Paul Newman. Then Leonard turned to writing crime novels. Many became movies, notably Get Shorty, with John Travolta as the unforgettable Chili Palmer, a Florida loan shark who goes to Hollywood to collect a debt and ends up making a movie. Leonards’s last novel, Raylan, features Raylan Givens, a fascinating figure from two previous novels and from the current FX television series Raylan. Givens, a laconic US marshal operating in Harlan County, Kentucky, is fully equal to the body part snatchers, hillfolk drug dealers, grifters who populate the novel. For me, the addicting qualities of Leonard’s work are his dialogue, his characters, and his imaginative, fully realized settings. The settings are the grittier parts of large cities like Detroit and Miami, Florida, Djibouti, Harlan County. Leonard’s characters are mobsters, low lifers, cops, people on the make. The dialogue is colorful, evocative, memorable, spare. In 1995 British writer Martin Ames described Leonard’s traits as a writer as “gifts—of ear and eye, of timing and phrasing—that even the most indolent and snobbish masters of the mainstream must vigorously covet.” Raylan the novel is among his best and is a fitting close to a wonderful writing career.
