Research Into Thrillers

Pulp Fiction (1994) - Quentin Tarantino- Miramax Films


'The lives of two mob hit men, a boxer, a gangster's wife, and a pair of diner bandits intertwine in four tales of violence and redemption.'

This thriller, directed by Quentin Tarantino, stars many well known actors such as John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Samuel L. Jackson and Bruce Willis. The Oscar-winning script by Tarantino and Roger Avary intertwines three stories, making this film unique and incredibly interesting, with Tarantinos fantastic directing and natural talent of making films, there is no way this motion picture would not be a hit, even to this day, almost ten years after it was released it is still being viewed and enjoyed by younger generations.

Review from Rotten Tomatoes,  94%, 9/10, said to be 'One of the most influential films of the 1990s, Pulp Fiction is a delirious post-modern mix of neo-noir thrills, pitch-black humor, and pop-culture touchstones'.
