It's all about LOVE this week as we tackle two true romances. One's a rom-com about falling in love with music and your best friend at the very same time. The other's a thrilling modern-day classic about love at first sight, the art of the con, and the pursuit of a better way of life—featuring some of the finest performances committed to celluloid in the second half of the 20th century. Is Jackie Brown Quentin Tarantino’s best film? Does it perhaps feature Robert De Niro’s best acting? Is Mos Def a top 5 most charming human?! Prepare to have your mind blown this time with JACKIE BROWN SUGAR!
