Saw it after catching Pulp Fiction when it came out in theaters. I was personally disappointed with it. I'm more of a realist & Keitel's character, being a seasoned pro,never would've done what he did in real life. It's great if you're watching Tarantino in order, friend. Best way to appreciate them. I then caught his next flick after Pulp Fiction, " Jackie Brown" & is my all-time fave of his. I lost interest in Tarantino after Grindhouse. Waste of talent to me but I'm in the minority & all must-sees. Don't forget "Four Rooms"! Tarantino only did one "room" but is a must see comedy starring Tim Roth & Bruce Willis among others. See ya! ✌🌎❤

I definitely wouldn't call this a comedy, but Tarantino is good at writing in funny moments that break up the tension. Even here in one of his earliest scripts, he masterfully weaves in humorous situations and comments in order to keep things from being too bleak. That balance of tension and comedy is something he continues to exploit going forward, and one of the big reasons why so many people (including myself) love his writing.

We only see the lead up to it and the aftermath... and yet it doesn't feel like the movie is missing anything. That's brilliant writing.

I’m kind of Stuck in the middle of the movie with that scene thanks to that song. Oh boy. And you’re right. We don’t see the robbery. We see breakfast and we see running from the police, but that’s it. The rest is just dialogue and story- but nothings missing.
@claremanion6523 Жыл бұрын
So I've been thinking about this for quite a while today... this film is about a robbery without showing the robbery, and Pulp Fiction (in many parts) is about what's in that suitcase without ever showing it. In both cases, the stolen diamonds and glowing whatever are in themselves irrelevant. The "MacGuffin." But what sets Tarantino apart is his refusal to show the MacGuffin, where other (less bold) filmmakers would. He's highlighting how much that 'thing' doesn't matter in comparison to the relationship-based and/or emotional story he's telling... Does that make sense? What do you think?

"Relax. Have a cigarette." "I quit." "Alright." "Why, you got one?" Fun Fact: Quentin Tarantino said he was proud the movie is often on top ten heist movies, even though you never actually see the heist. Medical Fact: During filming, a paramedic was kept on the set to make sure that Mr. Orange's (Tim Roth) amount of blood loss was kept consistent and realistic to that of a real gunshot victim. Music Enthusiast Fact: Madonna, who is the main topic of the opening conversation, really liked the film, but refuted Quentin Tarantino's Like A Virgin (1992) interpretation. She gave him a copy of her Erotica (1992) album, signed: "To Quentin. It's not about dick, it's about love. Madonna." Pacifist Panic Fact: Michael Madsen had difficulty filming the torture scenes, due to his strong aversion to violence of any kind, and was particularly reluctant when he was required to hit Kirk Baltz. When Baltz ad-libbed a line that his character has a child at home, Madsen, who had just become a new father himself, was so disturbed by the idea of leaving a child fatherless that he almost couldn't finish the scene.

Tarantino is a master with dialogue. And there are a number of tells that seem to distiguish every movie. You'll hear a lot of them like his fetish for feet and his obsession for graphic violence. But the one constant I've noticed in almost all of his movies is his obsession to not only portray cold blooded murder but also to justify it. And in this movie it occurs when the undercover cop (Mr. Orange) shoots the woman in the car who was merely trying to defend herself. Did you notice that Tim Roth (Mr Orange), Steve Buscemi (Mr Pink) and Harvey Keitel (Mr White) were also in PULP FICTION. And although Michael Madsen (Mr. Blond) was not in that film he will show up in three other Tarantino movies. He is one of several actors that Tarantino seems to go to when he is casting a new movie. TRUE ROMANCE would be a good choice for your next reaction in this category. I think you will be blown away by the cast when you do.

Subtle hint about the ending, the dynamic they present about the tips in the opening scene. Mr. Pink was only one who was didn't want to tip whilst everyone else pretty much threw in immediately. Despite tipping in away, Mr. Pink would be the only survivor, although he gets wounded and arrested. The story presents Pink like he is a total asshole and 100% would have been the logical option to be the rat, however, he was the only smart one in the group. He followed the rules Joe gave, he didn't pick sides other than his own. Joe and Eddie trusted Blonde too much and looked past his psychotic tendencies. White trusted Orange too much even though Orange would be the rat. Brown and Blue were the only exceptions as they were very, very minor characters.

Actually, if you listen closely, before the cops come in and kill Mr. White, you can actually hear Mr. Pink's altercation with the cops, and no, he doesn't get killed You can hear him trying to start a car, like you can hear him trying to crank it up, and then he police arrive as he's attempting to leave, and he gets into a shootout with them, and you can actually hear Mr. Pink's voice, and he says "Don't shoot, I've been shot goddamnit!", and he gets arrested before the police barge into the warehouse. Now yes its possible the cops shot Pink anyway, but given that we can actually hear the interaction outside the warehouse, I'm pretty sure he got arrested, and since he was the most professional/smartest of the crooks, he deserves to have only gotten arrested, he was too smart for that group Now, there is also a theory, one in which I firmly believe, is that Mr. Pink eventually gets released from prison or is out on parole, and becomes the Buddy Holly Waiter from Pulp Fiction, idk if you remember but in Pulp Fiction when Vincent & Mia go to the Jack Rabbit Slims restaurant, their waiter is a Buddy Holly impersonator who is played by Steve Buscemi, the same actor for Pink. I love to think that after prison and having a record, Mr. Pink could only get a waiting job, that runs off of tips to get by, and Vincent says "I don't think Buddy Holly's much of a waiter", and clearly he was very monotone and dispassionate about his job which just fuels the theory, and given him not being a very good waiter, he may not receive many tips

Is the movie Four Rooms on your Tarantino list? He wrote and directed one of the four segments.

It’s on the list, forward the back after I do all the directed films I’ll loop back around and hit that one with true romance, natural born killers, and I think from dusk til dawn.

A reservoir dog is a rat. It's a slang term for one who snitches to the police, or is an undercover police officer themselves. Origin comes from the great size of rats living in and around reservoirs.

It’s actually some interviews that led me to watch his films. I’ll definitely be watching more as I go through his movies.

So, is this a bad time to tell you that there's a little bit of killing in this movie? Just an FYI.

Just buy the damn thing, tipping is just unnecessarily throwing away money, don't matter how good they do it, they get paid fair and square. That's how we do it in NZ, like Mr Pink

👌I would agree If servers were paid fair and square. Here they make less than minimum wage and tips are expected to provide their wages. I do NOT tip in places that are paid full wages.
