Great actress. I love Jackie Brown and it wouldn’t work without her great performance. Might be my favorite Tarantino film and it has a lot to do with Pam Grier.

My favorite Tarantino movie as well, for the same reason. The scene where Max Cherry bonds her out of jail and sees her for the first time is fantastic.

I’m right there with you. And I was thinking today earlier when I saw this thread, that Max cherry maybe one of my favorite supporting characters in any film. They both work so well off each other

I don't know, man, I guess some black women are into that sort of submission/domination power dynamic. To me, it's just racist and bizarre, with a whole bunch of sluttiness and low self esteem. I've only ever been with one black chick. In the twenty-four years we've been together, she's never suggested any sort of roleplaying like that. If I did, which I wouldn't, she'd probably stab me. It ain't that kind of party.

A lot of black girls are into the kinky shite with white dudes because many of the black men won't play along with them and do some of the more perverted/kinky stuff like the white guys will.

Many black men won't even...um...'pleasure' their girl because they say it makes them less of a man or some shite like that.

The one darker skinned girl I ever had an encounter with a freak show, though, who would have probably been Into just about anything. It's just didn't last longer than a couple times. She was also a stripper in a former life.... So.... Um.. She probably heard about everything.

Probably the most loaded Oscar acting year of the last 4 decades and I still think Forster had the best performance out of all the 'supporting' actors (even though he's really the male lead).

No doubt. Grier and Forster playing off each other was special. Next level chemistry. Looking on that list of Oscar nominees, it was loaded that year. I really thought Duvall should have won for the Apostle. I love Nicholson but that should have been Duvall’s year.

Well, not too many black girls actually date white guys, so "a lot" of them being into race play is an impossibility.

That used to be true. White guys just didn't pursue them. There was a stereotype that black women were strong and aggressive, which men (of all flavors) found generally undesirable. I find that the narrative is generally bogus. . .with the women that perpetuate it, doing so as a defensive technique. Even black men with a degree of success, and/or capability, would pursue outside their race.

Black Women Voted Most Undesirable Women To Date

But in the modern era, tons of black female/white male couples. The old prejudices have begun falling away due to increased contact and less possibility for racial isolation.

And ftr, the "aggressive black woman" trope is only superficially true. Two of the girls I dated would have fit that mold. After a bit of realizing I wasn't going to hit her or take her money, they were as "reasonably" even tempered as any other woman I have dated.
