* BlackJezebelStereotype: On the one hand, Foxy Brown has the motive of enacting brutal revenge for the murder of her boyfriend and takes on a drug syndicate single-handedly. On the other hand, her fight scenes are filmed with gratuitous MaleGaze, with Foxy receiving [[MsFanservice sexualized]] ClothingDamage. Even scenes of Foxy being brutalized were sexualized to such an extent that critics described it as borderline soft-pornographic.

'''''Foxy Brown''''' is a 1974 {{Blaxploitation}} film, one of the first to feature a strong female lead--specifically, Creator/PamGrier, the ''original'' ActionGirl. Following the success of its [[SpiritualSuccessor spiritual predecessor]], ''Film/{{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 [[ExecutiveMeddling 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.
