Pam Grier


And then God created Pam Grier. Does anyone else possess such female warrior power as this cinematic Amazon? And this girl has worked! Even in the 80's she did uncredited work in flicks such as Something Wicked This Way Comes (she plays the witch!), and she was Madonna's second choice (after Rosie) for the role of Mama Morton in a movie incarnation of Chicago that would have taken place in the mid-90's starring Madge herself.

"Long Time Woman" is featured on the Jackie Brown soundtrack, but originates from a grindhouse flick called The Big Doll House. The track is mono, and I was a little pissed off because I thought it originated from the Foxy Brown soundtrack. But now that I know it was true grindhouse, it makes the sound all the more authentic. We're talkin' reeeeal low-budget. Raw.
