Directed
by
Quentin
Tarantino
After
making
huge
waves
with
his
low
budget
cult
hit
Reservoir
Dogs,
the
ex-video
store
clerk
turned
movie
maverick
Quentin
Tarantino’s
second
effort
turned
into
one
hell
of
a
movie.
Co-written
with
James
Avery
(who
had
his
credit
bought
out
by
Tarantino),
the
film
walked
off
with
numerous
awards
at
both
Cannes
and
the
Oscars.
Several
storylines
involving
underworld
figures
linked
in
one
way
or
another
(or
crossing
one
another’s
paths)
intertwine
in
a
flurry
of
dialogue,
violence and cinematic flair.
From
the
hitman
who
seems
to
fall
for
the
boss’s
wife,
his
drug
dealer
and
his
enlightened
partner’s
decision
to
leave
the
business,
to
the
boxer
not
taking
the
dive,
and
the
couple
knocking
over
a
coffee
shop.
With
a
fantastic
soundtrack
selection
on
top
of
it,
Pulp
Fiction
is
already
a
legendary
film,
and
while
it
may
not
be
seen
as
a
Citizen
Kane,
it
certainly
set
the
template
for
thousands
of
imitations
to
follow.
Pulp
Fiction
not
only
pushed
Samuel
L.
Jackson’s
career
into
a
new
bracket,
but
also
resurrected
Travolta’s
floundering
one.
One of my favourite Tarantino flicks (although each of them have something special).
