'''''Foxy Brown''''' is a 1974 [[Blaxploitation]] film, one of the first to feature a strong female lead--specifically, [[Pam Grier]], the ''original'' [[Action Girl]]. Following the success of its [[Spiritual Successor|spiritual predecessor]], ''[[Coffy]]'', writer/director Jack Hill wanted to create a sequel that would star Pam Grier reprising her famous role. The working script, titled ''Burn, Coffy, Burn'', was [[Executive Meddling|changed at the last minute when American-International Pictures decided they didn't want the movie to be a sequel]]. The script was quickly rewritten, and ''Foxy Brown'' was born.
 
Foxy Brown's boyfriend, Dalton Ford, recently worked undercover to expose a local crime ring. The movie opens shortly after he receives [[Magic Plastic Surgery|plastic surgery]], and he's all set to [[Retirony|retire]] under his new identity, Michael Anderson. Unfortunately, Link Brown, Foxy's drug dealing brother, recognizes Michael for who he is and exposes him to the mob in exchange for leniency regarding his own indescretions. The mob has Dalton/Michael murdered, and Foxy Brown poses as a [[High-Class Call Girl]] to [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge|get her revenge against]] and take down the [[Unholy Matrimony|creepy white couple]] who run everything.
