Pulp Fiction

This is absolutely one of the most influential films of the 1990s. It is Tarantino’s post-modern mix of film noir, dark humor and what has now become pop-culture icons.

The story is about a over this hill boxer named Butch (played by Bruce Willis) who decides to cheat a local mob boss who wants him to throw a fight. Because of this, Vincent and Jules (two career killers played by John Travolta and Samuel Jackson) hunt him down.

The movie unfolds through several almost mini-movies that intersect with each other, in a method that has you seeing some characters enter after you have already seen them die.

For me, this is the perfect DVD to keep in my car. Since it is essentially several smaller movies inside of a 154 minute movie, it is great popping in whenever I want to kill a little time over a lunch break downtown.

 

One of my favorite scenes is when Christopher Walken’s character delivers a war momento to Bruce Willis’ character (as a child) from his deceased father. Touching and disturbing all at once…
