Film: Pulp Fiction

Year: 1994

Time: 154min

Rating: 9.0/10

A revolutionary film, perfect in every detail. Tarantino giving the world one of the best films ever made, and an excellent tribute to literature "pulp" of the 40s, mixing violence, gangsters, drugs and many expletives.

It is the narrative where several stories are told, unfolding simultaneously, and need not be necessarily a link between them. This type of narrative requires much knowledge of how to make and not very common because of the difficulty.

Mixing heavy themes such as drug trafficking and mafia gangsters, the script written by Tarantino himself mainly shows the daily lives of several characters: two hit men, a boxer and his girlfriend from the mafia boss that although we are not presented in order chronologically, are all interconnected and make us realize that violence seems to be so routine that became part of the day-to-day characters, who have already adopted the brutality as a way of life constant, and that killing people is no longer something painful to be just an order fulfilled.

As an independent production, winning numerous awards around the world, including the Palme d'Or at Cannes, Best Film at the MTV Movie Awards, the Golden Globe for Best Screenplay and several BAFTA nominations. Quentin Tarantino has been proven definitively by this film, becoming known and respected throughout the film. At the time, geniliadade director earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Director and his fantastic script full of nuances and situations fabulous writer Tarantino also took the stage to receive the Oscar statuette for Best Original Screenplay.

Personal comment:

One part I like best about this film is the classic scene where the character Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson), is a biblical quote. Simply a masterpiece of cinema cult:

"You read the bible Brett? Well, there's a passage I have memorized, and that fits well on this occasion: Ezekiel 25:17 ... The path of the righteous is surrounded on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil . Blessed is he who in the name of charity and good will lead the weak through the valley of death, because he truly is the guardian and protector of children perdidos.E I will make them angry repreensõessobre with great vengeance those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And know that I am the Lord when shall lay my vengeance upon them. "
