The film was nominated for seven Oscars, including Best Picture; Tarantino and Avary won for Best Original Screenplay. It was also awarded the Palme d'Or at the 1994 Cannes Film Festival. A major critical and commercial success, it revitalized the career of its leading man, John Travolta, who received an Academy Award nomination, as did costars Samuel L. Jackson and Uma Thurman. Also starring Bruce Willis, Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Amanda Plummer, Maria de Medeiros, Ving Rhames, Eric Stoltz, Rosanna Arquette and Christopher Walken.




Pulp Fiction? What is it?
The film's title refers to the pulp magazines and hardboiled crime novels popular during the mid-20th century, known for their graphic violence and punchy dialogue. Pulp Fiction is self-referential from its opening moments, beginning with a title card that gives two dictionary definitions of "pulp". The plot, in keeping with most of Tarantino's other works, is presented out of chronological sequence.

About the Scene:

This is towards the beginning of the film, when Jules Winnfield (Samuel Jackson) and Vincent Vega (John Travolta) goes to get the briefcase from the "kids", as they work for Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames) - the gang leader.

The dialogs of this scene play a main role here, with the menacing act from Samuel Jackson. The scene falls so so naturally, with john Travolta searching for the briefcase in the kitchen. This is one of the best scenes in the movie, one of the most viewed videos on youtube.com.

This movie should be your favorite collection. If you havent watched this yet, you better watch it today. Otherwise, you are wasting your life.
