Pulp Fiction (Quentin Tarantino, 1994)

‘Pulp Fiction’ is the second feature-length film from the American filmmaker Quentin Tarantino and was released in 1994. The film comprises of multiple narrative threads which are shown out of order, but are all inter-connected. It follows two hitmen (Vincent Vega and Jules Winnfield), a boxer (Butch Coolidge), a gangster and his wife (Marsellus and Mia Wallace), and a couple of bandits (only known as Pumpkin and Honey Bunny). The film, similar to Tarantino’s other films, has an above average script length. This has to do with the fact that the film is very dialogue heavy, with the majority of scenes just being characters talking, often about seemingly meaningless topics. There are also quite a few scenes of excessive violence, another staple of Tarantino’s films.
