I was watched Pulp Fiction today. I have to say, that’s one messed up movie. People were dying left and right, with nobody particularly caring about anything or anybody at all except themselves. That’s not to say I didn’t like the movie. It is, perhaps, one of my favorite movies of all time. The way the story is told is just so unique, that characters so dysfunctional that it makes for one of the most interesting yet horrific movies I’ve ever seen.
There is one thing about Pulp Fiction that really stood out to me. Pretty much every main character at one point in the movie goes to the bathroom. Vincent (John Travolta) goes three times during the course of the movie, Jules (Samuel L. Jackson) goes once, Mia (good ‘ol Uma Therman) goes (granted, it was only to snort coke, but still…) and several times some of the more minor characters go to the bathroom. I found that mildly entertaining, considering that in most movies the characters appear to be devoid of the need to ever have to release their bodily waste.
Anyway, if you haven’t already seen it, see it. Now. Because I said to.
