Description
Dana and Tom with returning guest Adam Freed (moviearcher.com) revisit Pulp Fiction (1994): written and directed by Quentin Tarantino, starring John Travolta, Samuel L. Jackson, Ving Rhames, Bruce Willis, and Uma Thurman. Plot Summary: Pulp Fiction unravels like a jigsaw puzzle soaked in bourbon and blood. It's a dark, gritty L.A., where bad men and worse women cross paths in a labyrinth of crime and fate. Vincent Vega, a hitman with a penchant for dance floors and bad decisions, is partnered with the philosophical Jules Winnfield, who quotes the Bible before squeezing the trigger. Their boss, Marsellus Wallace, a kingpin with a soft spot for his wife, Mia, tasks Vincent with keeping her entertained; a simple job that spirals into a night of adrenaline-fueled chaos. Meanwhile, Butch Coolidge, a boxer past his prime, refuses to take a dive for Wallace igniting a deadly game of cat and mouse. In a world where conversations drip with menace and every decision has a bullet attached, the characters' lives intersect with a bang. It's a world where the wrong move means a one-way ticket to the morgue, and redemption is as elusive as the briefcase everyone’s chasing.
