PULP FICTION (1994 - R) A hamburger-afficionado hit man (Travolta), his meditative partner (Jackson), a gangster's squeeze (Thurman) and a has-been boxer (Willis) are just some of the colorful characters on display in Quentin Tarantino's freewheeling and intensely quirky 1994 crime comedy that memorably throws traditional linear narrative out the window. Digressive and lurid, its hard sometimes to see the points to the four story threads winding through it, but they're so richly textured and entertaining you end up not caring. The journey is the reward. Perhaps the best crime drama ever. The sparkling cast includes: John Travolta, Samuel L. Jackson, Bruce Willis, Uma Thurman, Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Amanda Plummer, Maria de Medeiros, Ving Rhames, Eric Stoltz, Rosanna Arquette, and Christopher Walken. #95 on the AFI Top 100. PULP FICTION was nominated for the Best Picture award. Director Quentin Tarantino's, "Pulp Fiction," is a lurid, profane and highly entertaining look at both pop culture and societies' low-lifes. Tarantino received a nomination for best directing.
