Disenchanted with the movie industry, Chili Palmer (John Travolta) tries the music industry, meeting and romancing a widow of a music exec (Uma Thurman) on the way.
Supreme hip crime fiction craftsman Elmore Leonard's droll humor, wry dialogue and waggish characters made their smoothest transitions to screen in Jackie Brown, Out of Sight and Get Shorty. Fronted -- hot on the heels of Pulp Fiction -- by a dazzlingly confident John Travolta, Get Shorty, about an underworld shylock out to conquer Hollywood, oozed cool from every scene.
