Pulp Fiction	comment	Describe what Pulp Fiction looks like!Pulp Fiction is a 1994 black comedy crime drama film directed and written by Quentin Tarantino, told in Tarantino's trademark nonlinear fashion. It covers three stories, all interconnected.The first is about two hitmen, Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson) and Vincent Vega (John Travolta), who are out to retrieve a briefcase stolen from their employer, Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames). This leads into two subplots, one about Vincent being ordered to also take Marsellus's wife Mia Wallace (Uma Thurman) out for a night on the town while Wallace is out of town doing business, and another about Jules and Vincent accidentally shooting a guy named Marvin in the face and trying to clean it up.The second is about an aging boxer named Butch Coolidge (Bruce Willis) who is paid by Wallace to throw a fight. Instead, Butch bets on himself and wins (the other boxer drops dead of a heart attack during the fight in the process), making swift plans to leave the country straight after. But before he can do this, he has to recover a certain gold watch that belonged to his father, which promptly leads into the weirdest day of his life, involving Marsellus and a pair of seriously nasty hillbillies.The third story, which bookends the film, is about a pair of robbers called Pumpkin and Honey Bunny (Tim Roth and Amanda Plummer) who spontaneously hold up a restaurant â€” a restaurant that Jules and Vincent are eating in.Pulp Fiction is generally regarded as being the film that put John Travolta back on the map as an A-lister after years of slumming it in bomb after bomb, as well as finally breaking Samuel L. Jackson out of being simply a "that guy" character actor and making him a household name. Additionally, Bruce Willis was able to officially put to rest the rumors that him playing John McClane was just a one-off fluke from someone primarily known for comedic roles and gave him the juice he needed to continue on the path of what would eventually become a storied reputation as one of Hollywood's premier action stars.The film is also somewhat infamous for the controversy over proper writing credits. The "Gold Watch" chapter originated as an original script by Roger Avary. Tarantino bought the script with the intention of adapting it, as one would do a novel. In the final credits, Avary is given a "story by" listing.Other actors in the All-Star Cast include Harvey Keitel as the Wolf, a crime-scene cleanup specialist; Eric Stoltz as Lance, a drug dealer who helps out Vince in a moment of crisis; Rosanna Arquette as Jody, Lance's girlfriend with a fondness for body piercings; Christopher Walken as Captain Koons, who went to a lot of trouble to deliver a family heirloom to young Butch; and Frank Whaley as Brett, a young punk who tries to double-cross Marsellus.Not to be confused with actual pulp fiction as a genre (an influence for the film), which is found under Pulp Magazine.

Pulp Fiction / int_10134c97	type	Artistic License â€“ Gun Safety
Pulp Fiction / int_10134c97	comment	Artistic License â€“ Gun Safety: Vincent shooting Marvin in the face is an example of "don't point guns at things you don't want dead" and "keep your finger off the trigger". Justified, as he's a) almost certainly fucked up on heroin at the time and b) an idiot to begin with, and ignorance of basic gun safety principles is extremely in character for him. Marsellus Wallace is guilty as well, leaving a loaded gun unattended while he steps out to get breakfast as Vincent is waiting for an assassination target, resulting in the target returning, finding the unattended gun, and realizing someone's in the apartment quickly enough to use it on him.

Pulp Fiction / int_2439b588	comment	As the Good Book Says...: Jules Winnfield is fond of quoting what he claims is Ezekiel 25:17 before executing someone. He explains to one character that he "always thought it was some cold blooded shit to say to a motherfucker before I popped a cap in his ass," but then he started to think seriously about what it means. The speech is actually lifted almost directly from a Badass Boast in the Sonny Chiba film Karate Kiba, with only the final lines, "And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger [...] And you will know My name is the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon thee," actually taken from the aforementioned passage — though some phrases from the speech such as "the paths of the righteous", "brother's keeper" and "valley of darkness" are Biblical.

Pulp Fiction / int_3ed23024	type	Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
Pulp Fiction / int_3ed23024	comment	Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Vincent names a trope by accidentally shooting Marvin in the face during a car ride. While Vincent claims the car went over a bump, he was holding a loaded gun with his finger on the trigger. It was only a matter of time before the gun went off. The immediate shouting by both Jules and Vincent afterwards show that Vincent didn't meant to shoot Marvin, and the subsequent scenes also go into detail about how messy cleaning up a crime scene is and the little things that can cause such a cover-up to unravel. Upon seeing Marsellus out in the street, Butch tries to run Marsellus over with his car. Butch hits and injures Marsellus, but not much, since he barely had any room to punch the gas. Also, Butch injures himself in the collision because he wasn't wearing a seat belt. Marsellus pulls out a gun and shoots at Butch, but his aim is awful thanks to being in a large amount of pain, as can be expected from someone who was just hit by a car. As a result, one of the bullets Marsellus fires hits a random woman in the leg. The woman had nothing at all to do with the conflict; she was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Firing a large-caliber gun under extreme stress and with no attempt at accuracy is just going to result in an empty weapon and your targets emerging unscathed. This gets a friend of Brett's killed when he emerges from the bathroom firing a huge handgun wildly, with Jules and Vincent standing in place yet still coming out unscathed. The uncomfortable silence that follows shows that even they can't believe they got out of that unhurt, to the point that Jules has a Heel Realization when he came that close to death.

An instant after Vincent accidentally fires his gun at Marvin, the scene cuts to just behind the car and a huge splatter of blood covers the rear windshield; the body itself does not appear on camera until much later, when it's thrown in the trunk.

If the way Maynard drops the N-word when pointing his shotgun at Butch isn't a clear enough indication he is not just trying to prevent a murder - he might just be kind of racist, after all - then the phone call about how "the spider just caught a couple of flies" certainly is.

In reality, she almost certainly would have died unless 911 was called. The epinephrine may have restarted her stopped heart, but it would do nothing about the heroin still in her system, and she'd probably be tachycardic from the epi. The primary cause of death in a heroin overdose is respiratory failure; the heart only stops when the brain dies due to the lack of oxygen. In real life, one of the primary treatments for heroin OD is a large injection of naloxone, which temporarily reverses respiratory failure caused by opioid overdose. But, like epi, you slam naloxone into a vein or a large peripheral muscle, and very much not into the heart.

And Marsellus Wallace does not like to be fucked by anybody except Missus Wallace." Before the confrontation at Brett's apartment, Vincent mentions to Jules that one of the men in the apartment is "our guy." Marvin is the only person not killed at the apartment, suggesting he was the spy Vincent was talking about. Near the beginning of Butch's story when Esmerelda asks him what it feels like to kill a man, he can't answer because he didn't do it knowingly. Two corpses later by the end of Butch's story, he can probably describe the feeling in detail. The conversation about Marsellus Wallace's apparent Disproportionate Retribution to the man that allegedly gave Mrs. Wallace a foot massage serves to build up the tension for the temptation and nervousness that Vince feels when he has to take Mia out for the evening. The foot massage conversation also ends up establishing that while Jules works for Marsellus, he doesn't fear him. He openly questions the extremity of the punishment and says with complete confidence that anybody who'd try that shit with him would have hell to pay. This comes into play later, as sure enough, Jules isn't worried at all about Marsellus's reactions to him demanding help with Marvin's body and handing in his resignation. When he wakes up Marsellus and Butch, Maynard tells them "No one kills anyone in my place of business, except me or Zed." That's exactly what happens.

Of course, Jules has made it expressly clear that if it were any other day, he'd have just popped them both and finished his coffee, but he's making a conscious effort to change his ways.

The look on Vincent's face when he emerges from the bathroom to see Butch pointing a gun at him. Doubly so given that in their earlier meeting, Vincent went out of his way to antagonize Butch. The moment Butch stops at the light and notices the man crossing in front of him is Marsellus. In the Imagine Spot in "The Bonnie Situation", this is the look on Jules, Vincent, and Jimmie's faces when Jimmie's wife walks in on them trying to dispose of Marvin's body in the living room. During the confrontation between Jules, Vincent, Brett, and Roger, Roger looks visibly frightened the entire time.

Pulp Fiction / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: Duchess from The Aristocats inspired Uma Thurman's dance. Tarantino has stated that the briefcase was originally meant to be the same MacGuffin suitcase of diamonds from Reservoir Dogs until they changed it to a glowing object instead. The scene where Butch stops at a crosswalk and Marsellus walks by is very similar to a scene in Psycho. Jules's expanded version of Ezekiel 25:17 directly quotes the Sonny Chiba film Karate Kiba (released in the West as The Bodyguard — with "and you will know My name is THE LORD" (one of the few bits actually from Ezekiel) replacing "and they shall know that I am Chiba the Bodyguard". A lot of the original speech is cannibalised from famous Biblical verses, though — "the path of the righteous man" from Isaiah 26:7, "[my] brother's keeper" from Cain and Abel (Genesis 4:9), "through the valley of darkness" from Psalm 23, among others. Charley Varrick: In that film, Boyle tells Young that their bosses will most likely go to work on Young with "a pair of pliers and a blowtorch" for failure on the job and possible betrayal. Jules's blue shirt has a monochromatic version of the current page image for Krazy Kat. Vincent wears a UC Santa Cruz T-shirt. While trying to placate Jimmy, Jules says, "That's Kool and the Gang," referencing a funk band whose "Jungle Boogie" also appears on the soundtrack. A character mentioned several times is called Tony Rocky Horror. When Jules eats Brett's Big Kahuna Burger, moments before shooting him and his fellow dealers sans Marvin (who is implied to be a mole). It's a clear shout out to The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, where Angel Eyes does the same thing to Stevens. The entire sequence at Jackrabbit Slim's is naturally full of references to '50s pop culture, not all of them explained. The Douglas Sirk Steak, named after a director famous for his melodramatic style with no half measures, can be ordered "burnt to a crisp or bloody as hell," and the milkshakes come in Amos and Andy or Martin and Lewis, two famous comedy duos, the former performing as black characters and the latter white. The dwarf maitre d' dressed as a bellhop quotes an old Philip Morris cigarette commercial. Jackrabbit Slim's itself is named after an album by singer/songwriter Steve Forbert, although he wasn't recording during The '50s. The adrenaline shot scene is taken almost verbatim from an anecdote told by Steven Prince in the Martin Scorsese documentary American Boy: A Profile of Steven Prince. Details including a woman overdosing, using an adrenaline shot to revive her, arguing over who will do it, referencing a medical dictionary, using a "stabbing motion", and marking the target with a magic marker are all taken from Prince's story. Jules references Happy Days in the diner scene when telling Yolanda/Honey Bunny that "We're gonna be like three Fonzies." And what's Fonzie like? "He's cool." In a scene from the shooting script that was not used for the film, Mia gives Vincent a personality test she made up by giving him pairs of choices — Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie, The Brady Bunch and The Partridge Family, Betty and Veronica, etc.

He hesitates at the front door, and then goes back to rescue the man who wants him dead. The DVD commentary states that Butch was reminded of Captain Koons' words from when he was a boy: "When two men are in a situation like me and your dad were for as long as we were, you take on certain responsibilities of the other."

The Magic Bullets scene leads to an argument between Jules and Vincent regarding whether or not it was an act of God or pure luck (to be fair, there were bullet holes in the wall directly behind where they were standing, which helps convince Jules). The yellow flashes of light that are placed between cuts during the shooting might link the event to the glowing yellow contents of the briefcase.

Wolfe manages to be pretty even tempered in calling Vincent out for being difficult for no good reason and giving a rather snarky "please" to get past Vincent's objection.

After killing him, Jules and Vincent examine the bullet holes in the wall, which the camera cannot see until they step back, suggesting that the bullets should have passed through them. Lampshaded and arguably justified, as Jules points out that it couldn't possibly be anything but divine intervention, and Vincent has no better rebuttal than any other Flat-Earth Atheist. However, the commentary points out that some bullet holes were already in the wall when Vince and Jules went in.

Pulp Fiction / int_fbc1a522	comment	Woken Up at an Ungodly Hour: As Vincent races over to his drug dealer Lance's to save Mia from an accidental overdose, Lance and his girlfriend Jody do nothing but complain as it is 1:30 in the morning and they don't want to be bothered by people calling or knocking at their house at odd hours of the early morning. Once Vincent points out the severity of the situation if they don't save Mia (as she is his mob boss's wife, and if she dies Vincent is fucked), they agree to help and administer the adrenaline shot that saves Mia from an overdose.

Pulp Fiction / int_fe0330fb	type	Brick Joke
Pulp Fiction / int_fe0330fb	comment	Brick Joke: Does Marsellus Wallace look like a bitch? He does now. Though he certainly makes who did it to him pay. In The Bonnie Situation, Jules tries to (unsuccessfully) placate Jimmie by over-complimenting him on how good his coffee tastes. Later on, Jimmie makes a cup for Winston Wolfe, who upon tasting it is audibly impressed, smiles, and gives Jimmy a silent toast with the mug in approval. Evidently, the high quality of the coffee was no lie. On their way to interrogate Brett, Vincent tells Jules that the Quarter Pounder is called a "Royale with Cheese" in Paris. Jules later mentions this to Brett when they arrive at his apartment to find him having a cheeseburger for breakfast. A subtle one, but in the intro in the diner, Honey Bunny suggests that "you could cut down on the hero factor" by robbing a restaurant. Fast forward to the end of the film during that same incident, and Jules pulls his gun and intervenes.

Pulp Fiction / int_ffad4e9f	comment	Shown Their Work: Jules refers to his gun as "Mr. Nine Millimeter" to Ringo during the diner standoff; while the gun Jules uses appears to be a .45 caliber 1911 pistol, it's represented by a 9mm Star Model B clone. The only way to identify them at all is by the external extractor, a tiny strip of metal on the right side of the slide, and the lack of a grip safety, a button on the grip covered by the palm when held. Everything Vincent says about Amsterdam was true at the time of the movie's release. Not surprising, since Tarantino apparently spent some time there while writing the script.
