Quentin Tarantino on Pulp Fiction's Influence

I watch Pulp Fiction once or twice each year. And to me it's one of those movies that leaves you thoughtful every time. And as I've aged.. I'm now 31 years old, the movie, or the message of the movie changes with me. And I pick up something new almost every time I see it. It's one of my absolute favorite movies of all time, and I never get sick of it.

Yes, and for what it's worth we appreciated the comforts of reruns in the afternoons and sought the certain episodes. We engaged with what shows were available to us for entertainment before the boom of cable TV. By happenstance we became the reference makers.

[@jaydubya3698]

I'm the same age and thought exactly the same thing. What he didn't mention, but could have, were all the reruns of stupid sitcoms like Giiligan's Island, Hogan's Heroes, the Munsters, Beverly Hillbillies, and Green Acres. Heck, my brother and I still pull random quotes from these shows once in a while: "I know....nothing!!!' "Well, Granny, I'm going out to the ceeement pond...." "Feed Spot...he's hungry." "Miiiiister Douglas!!!"

[@te9591]

@586KING i personally dont feel the gimp scene had to be about race. If you put a big white guy in there it would have shocked just as much. Presenting that scene so brutally put you in both of the captives shoes and showed you how sick and twisted those gun shop owners were. And it also presents a hidden evil with ownership and zed as a police man. That scene would typically be associated with a violent gang but instead it was literally the underside of the establishment.

Once our generation grows up, what common cultural experiences will we have that will keep us glued? 9/11 and Trump? Social media culture? Two random baby boomers who have never met before could sit down at a nursing home and talk about the 60s counterculture, Elvis, the Beatles, Vietnam, the Cuban Missile crisis, what it was like having ww2 vets as dads etc, and they'd be able to relate to each other.

[@foleynj86]

I don't know if I would take a 9 year old to see Pulp Fiction but not for the reasons one might think. I was 9 when it came out and obviously my mom didn't let me watch it. But that was because of the violence and language. I don't know think a 9 year old would understand a lot of the themes and motifs in this movie. For example, the scene with the gimp and the attempted rape of Marcellus, the non linear storytelling which jumps around which may be confusing, the adrenaline 💉 along with drug usage and the somewhat liberal use of the N word.

[@MarklovesAngels]

@H Advertising is based on the fact that people can be swayed by what they see. Laws were passed not allowing a TV kids show host to hawk a product for example. If the media can sway people's minds, imagine a movie with rape and killing. NOT saying that'd make someone a rapist and murderer. But how exactly does a young mind without other life experiences slot those images correctly in their psyche? There's such a thing as age appropriateness.

When they tried to copy his style, they thought it was about throwing in random dialog about films or everyday conversation, but what they mostly never got was that those lines only felt random, but they never were random. Every single apparent random dialog line gave information to advance the plot or to present a character. If you watch the initial breakfast scene in Reservoir Dogs, the dialogue seems random but in the end, each character and how they approached things was presented. Tarantino never was random, he's been a precise perfectionist.

Different art I guess. Jamie fox is an amazing story teller and it seems he uses his acting traits to enhance his stories

[@TenThumbsProductions]

@@seanhickey1999 I was mostly just joking but there was a small element of truth in there. It kind of goes to show you that to be a good story teller takes more than just telling a good story. Timing, delivery, confidence, voice, Morgan Freeman can make anything sound good for example! Again, mostly joking but there is a little truth to it.

[@TauricornA]

That's pretty cool as an observation. He's a visual story teller. Describing through word is a lot more work than showing someone a picture of something.

[@TenThumbsProductions]

@@TauricornA Yes! You articulated my own idea better than I did. There are many ways to tell a story, visually, musically, orally, and the art of sitting down and telling a story is very different than the art of telling a story through film, as evident by this interview.

Quentin is one of those guys whose comfort with his subject reminds you "oh, that's right, he's a fucking genius." No one is everyone's cup of tea, but Tarantino created a world that we can visit, an alternate Earth full of compelling stories and adjusted to his own desires.

Only Christ’s righteousness covering us can reconcile us (depraved sinners) to a Holy and Righteous and good God. Repent. Turn away from this sin and believe in Jesus Christ. He, God incarnate lived a perfect and sinless life. He died on the cross as a substitute for us and faced the wrath of God for us. He died but resurrected as death had no power over Him.
