Pulp Fiction Question

:-)

Odd, I was just thinking about that this weekend. I always thought it was Marcellus' soul, but someone else told me that that doesn't synch with the timeline of the film. I was going to watch again last night, but Paradise beckoned. Here's a link I came across this weekend:

Perhaps, but the bandaid also foreshadows the rape scene, I think. Remember that the first shot we see of Marsellus is from the rear.

I love a good exegesis as much as the next guy, but. . .


I read somewhere (so it must be true) that Tarantino slapped the band-aid on at the last second because Ving Rames has a scar on the back of his neck. QT didn't want us obsessing on the scar, so, now we obsess about the band-aid!


Murray Who loves PF to death. And who firmly believes that Samuel L Jackson should have won best actor, not just been nominated for best-supporting.

Murray,


It's not just the bandaid but the first shot of Marsellus, along with many of the subsequent shots, which show him from the rear. Agree on Jackson, and many of the other actors give fine performances.


John

PF is a classic. Can't wait for "Vega brothers" sometime next year i heard.


Adam.

Vega Brothers? You mean QT is filming a new flick featuring V and V? God, now I can't think of anything else until I see it. (I still get all goofy over the opening scene, beginning of music, of Pulp Fiction. Boy do I love that movie.


Adam, any plans to play with your old pals at the HI? Lots of new blood/action/insanity.


Murray

Hey Murray,


No plans to come downtown anytime soon. Bought a house out in Maple Ridge and stay pretty close to home and computer! Plan on buying a pick-up truck with a gun rack very soon...


Good luck at Hi,


Adam.

Maple Ridge? Jesus, that's in Alberta, isn't it?


Congrats on the house (and the wife, of course). And I'll be pleased as punch not to see you at the HI!


all the best,


Murray

No one mentioned the reference to the Robert Aldrich flick. Seemed obvious to me.


(I also knew we were just never gonna see what's inside! Bravo, maestro.)
