The cars has power brakes that utilize engine vacuum for the power assist. At low engine speed, the vacuum is not as great. The power brake unit "stores" vacuum for these situations.
Check the hose that goes to the power brake unit. It could be dried up and cracked, it should be soft and flexible. Other possibilities are the check valve on the power brake unit that the hose connects to. The power brake unit itself could also be the problem.
