Part of the facts

There is no modern movie with more obvious themes and intentions than this film. It even writes clearly what it wants to express in its name.

Fiction: The film’s narrative technique can be said to be extremely common in modern novels. The "circular" and "multi-angle" that make people worship, if it is considered "pioneer" and "experimental", it can only be seventy. Pioneer and experimentation years ago. When Quentin wrote this story, he must have had such an idea that he would follow through-what you will see is more inclined to a normal novel than a general movie. As for the people who watched it because of its narrative, if they were amazed, amazed, or impressed, then either the people who watched it had a problem, or the previous movie had a problem.

Pulp: At the beginning of the movie, the explanation of this word was greatly punched on the screen, and the white text on the black background was clear. Yes, this is a novel, and it is a vulgar and inferior novel.

This is more blatant than running naked in broad daylight. Quentin said that we just want to show the people what is vulgar, what is inferior, and what is mess.

The protagonist can burp at any time; the underworld boss can be pushed into the back door; and his wife has a very charming personality and unique style, but it's just an expression of being too excited after taking drugs.

How can the story of the dignified fighter continue? Ordinary movies, how can they smash ten cars, ruin half of the street, let him rebirth from the blood and the corpse, complete a character tragedy, or a heroic happy ending. No, in vulgar novels, he got away in jaw-dropping opportunities and extremely awkward scenes, but rode a terminator-like motorcycle. Even he himself didn’t know what to look like or how to give him. The explanation of the wives who are jerky and crooked, who do not have the potential to be a heroic spouse at all.

The curly-haired Jules Shinto always feels that God manifested and inspired him, but don't forget the treasure chest he escorted, the password is 666, so even if something really manifests its spirit, it is not God but the devil. Moreover, the devil’s wishful thinking is that it not only protects the safety of the treasure chest, but also allows the young couple who later robbed the restaurant to escape safely-after all, it takes so much effort to argue, analyze, summarize, and have the ability to act. There are not many couples!

Therefore, the awe-inspiring ending of this seemingly religious requiem full of redemption and self-redemption is basically an anti-religious joke. And if Jules really took the right path later, it was not the angel who guided him, but the old man Lucifer Satan.

There are also lines. At the beginning, Vincent and Jules talked so much about whether Marsellus should throw people out for a foot massage. Both of them were logically rigorous and thoughtful, and the discussions were serious. But then Mia told everyone that there is no such thing as a foot massage. The argument for the robbery of the husband and wife, as well as the quotation, turned out that Jules's plan was ruined with a gun. However, what Marsellus said about dignity finally became reality. People who don't care about dignity were taken off their pants and completely lost their dignity.

In other words, so many well-designed lines are actually nonsense, complete nonsense. Of course, fans of the line can say that writing nonsense like this is also the ultimate.

Quentin has spent such a lot of thought and effort to make this story vulgar, vulgar, vulgar to immortality. The immortal vulgarity is essentially different from the general vulgarity. There is no violence and no pornography in the immortal vulgarity-pour two bottles of tomato ketchup and apply a little red paint, which is not bloody, and if two people move their fists on the ground a little, it is not violence. If you don't believe me, you can see that when Marvin was headshot lying in the trunk, his head was intact. Isn't it bloody and violent?

The eternal theme of immortal vulgarity is deconstruction, ridicule, mockery and cynicism. It is not noble, it dismembers noble; it is not elegant, it is violent and elegant. Vincent and Marsellus's Wife, what a good beginning of an erotic story: The gangster is responsible for taking care of the boss's wife, and she takes the initiative to flatter him frequently. In the end, passion is just drugs and flirting is just excitement. A big needle sticks down, and the person who likes erotic stories wakes up. The last Catch up joke that Mia told is so fucking cold...

There is also Mr. Wolf, who is obviously a godfather. When everyone mentions him, he has a bizarre and respectful tone, but he is just a troublesome handler, making some trivial arrangements, thinking that he is saving the world, and finally holding on to the broken car yard. The boss's daughter drove and walked.

Was Marvin's death unexpected? There are many unexplained deaths in this world. Vincent's death is also quite logical, the protagonist? The earth is so big, who is the protagonist? Is the protagonist of the movie worthy of favor?

As for the whole nonsense, it’s better to say that it’s the part closest to life. Everyone is talking, and most of them are nonsense. Of course, there is not so much vulgarity. What we say is meaningless, because life is not what we can do. Those who are in control are often slapped by reality after we finish talking. Just because it said it was gone, no one cared. If it can be saved, then 90% will be labeled as "nonsense".

Well, this is a vulgar novel. It is not the truth of life, it is just a part of the facts, but with this part, its immortality can be achieved. Because most people who make movies have not yet figured out what the truth is.
