Synopsis
Pulp Fiction (1994) is Quentin Tarantino's crime comedy, and you can watch online on iFILM. Los Angeles diners, long talks about nothing, and gunfire that erupts mid-sentence between jokes about burgers.
Tarantino braids several stories together and shuffles their order, so one character dies in the first hour and walks back in near the end. Hitmen Vincent Vega (John Travolta) and Jules (Samuel L. Jackson) drive across town to collect a briefcase for crime boss Marsellus Wallace. Boxer Butch (Bruce Willis) is paid to throw a fight and refuses. And when Vincent is asked to entertain the boss's wife, Mia (Uma Thurman), a single night out nearly turns lethal. The dialogue sticks in your head, and the brutality keeps bumping into deadpan farce.
The film won the Palme d'Or at Cannes and an Oscar for its original screenplay, revived Travolta's career, and set the template for nineties independent cinema. Made for just eight million dollars, it still gets rewatched line by line. Stream Pulp Fiction (1994) online on iFILM.
