Femme Fatale of the Week

Pam Grier is no tragic femme-fatale goddess from yesteryear. She is very much alive and well, working, and she can thank Quentin Tarantino for that with his exuberant adaptation of an Elmore Leonard novel Rum Punch and changed it to suit his need and hers and called it Jackie Brown. The years have been more than kind. She is still a goddess. This is a woman that survived the blaxpoitation haunts she began her career with, dated the likes of Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Rchard Pryor and Freddie Prinze Sr. There is, and will never be, another bad-ass, funky mamma like the one-and-only Pam Grier.
