Pulp Fiction

Oh where to start with this one...Pulp Fiction, is probably my second-favorite movie of all times after Forrest Gump, and with good reason... I don't even wanna get into what a mastermind Quentin Tarantino is because that's a rant that will go on for days... But this movie specifically is a great piece of work, because it has such a unprecedented plot and the distorted chronology of the narrative. The dialogue is true to the vernacular  culture.

Each of the characters are so different than each other and cause a great comparison of the different types of people we might be faced to deal with in life, even if our life is not so wild. 

For years though, I wondered what "pulp fiction" is and I have recently found the perfect explanation. According to vintagelibrary.com, the term refers to the huge amount of creative writing available to the American public in the early nineteen-hundreds. Termed "pulp magazines" because of the low quality paper used between the covers, these publications proliferated in the nineteen-thirties and nineteen-forties to the point where they blanketed newsstands in just about every popular fiction genre of the time.

So there you go, another reason to appreciate the awesomeness of this movie, as if the music the realness, the characters and the dialogue isn't enough.

The movie was nominated for eight Oscars in 1995 and won the award for Best Screenplay.
