FOXY BROWN (1974)
Director: Jack Hill. Cast: Pam Grier,
Antonio Fargas, Kathryn Loder, Sid Haig
Don’t mess around with Foxy Brown. She’s the meanest chick in town – especially if you’re one of the drug dealers who killed her boyfriend. Blaxploitation queen Pam Grier hits the revenge trail (again) and whitey’s ass gets one hell of a kicking in this action-packed entertainment that features excellent 70’s fashion statements, a great soundtrack, lots of violence, car stunts, punch ups and, of course, boobs. Pam is in great form, infiltrating a call girl ring, brawling in a lesbian bar and running down the bad guys with a plane, all the while sporting an Afro that could block out the sun. Kathryn Loder is fearsomely camp as the villain and there’s a finale you’ll never forget – especially if you’re a guy. Nearly everyone is dead at the end.
