Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction leaving Netflix soon

Quentin Tarantino’s acclaimed second film, Pulp Fiction, received the prestigious Palme d’Or at the 1994 Cannes Film Festival and an Oscar for Best Screenplay. The crime thriller, featuring a star-studded cast including John Travolta, Samuel L Jackson, Uma Thurman, and many more, garnered both critical acclaim and box office success. If you have yet to watch this iconic film or would like to revisit it, please make sure to do so before Pulp Fiction exits Netflix on June 14th.

Ezekiel 25:17, as recited by Samuel Jackson, does not exist in the Bible. He says, “The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and goodwill, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.” Have you ever observed the book that Vincent Vega (played by Travolta), a substance-abusing hitman, reads in the washroom? The book is titled Modesty Blaise, a spy novel by Peter O’Donnell. It is known that Tarantino is a great admirer of this novel.

Uma Thurman was not initially selected to portray Mia Wallace. Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jennifer Aniston, Michelle Pfeiffer, and French actress Catherine Deneuve were all considered for the role. Tarantino had initially envisioned Matt Dillon as Butch Coolidge, an aging boxer, but Dillon was not satisfied with the script. Eventually, the filmmaker approached Willis, a more prominent actor than Dillon, and the rest is now part of cinematic history.
