Chapter 810 810 Pulp Fiction
Similar to Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction begins with a dialogue at a dining table.
The little pumpkin and the little rabbit are like an ordinary couple, chatting while eating breakfast. The two chat about a very dangerous thing. The little pumpkin doesn't want to do this, but the little rabbit thinks they should do it. Little Pumpkin feels that even robbing a bank is easier than this, because "they have insurance, they are not afraid of being robbed, and they don't even need a gun."
This succinct opening, like the style of Quentin Tarantino's "reservoir dogs", has a strong black humor in the words, and he often uses dialogue to show wisdom and promote the plot - which seems very in line with the French People's aesthetic preferences, sure enough, the movie started less than 90 seconds before the audience laughed lightly, which was a good start.
After the conversation started, the audience was stunned to discover that the couple was actually planning a robbery, and after discussion, the two agreed that they were robbing the restaurant where they were eating and the many customers inside. So, the two of them did what they said they did, immediately drew their guns and started to act, stood up, tore off the comfortable and relaxed mask just now, and roared angrily at the entire restaurant.
There was no warning, a whim, and a sudden turn... Then, the picture stopped, the music cut in, the name of the production company, the names of the starring actors... The audience at the cinema opened their mouths slightly in fright.
After the subtitles of the movie fell, the little pumpkin and the little rabbit in the opening chapter did not appear. Instead, Hugo with neat and oily hair and Samuel with instant noodles and curly hair were replaced. The audience actually whistled at the scene. Made everyone laugh.
Vincent and Jules are driving down the streets of Los Angeles, Vincent is showing Jules his "magical" experience in Europe, showing the world he has seen, but he does not realize that this action It just makes him look more shallow. The two stopped the car near an apartment, then skillfully took out the pistol from the trunk, fully equipped, and apparently the two were on their way to their mission.
Jules and Vincent chatted about the anecdote of their boss Martha's wife, Mia. A man named Anton gave Mia a foot massage, but Martha sent him to throw him from the fourth floor. The two also argued seriously whether "foot massage" represented sex. Hint, after a lighthearted argument, they came to a room, ready to go on a mission.
There were three young people in the room having breakfast. They were very terrified by the appearance of Vincent and Jules. It turned out that the three led by Bright were doing business with Masha, but they embezzled a skin of Masha. The suitcase, Jules and Vincent came for the suitcase.
After Vincent found the box, he opened it and found that the inside was glittering with gold, which made him very satisfied. Obviously this was his goal.
Jules first killed one of the young men without warning, causing panic in everyone's room. Then Jules played with Brett like a cat and mouse, and made Brett scared to the ground. Jules He said casually, "There is a passage of the 'Bible' that should be very appropriate to read now. Ezekiel, chapter 25, verse 17," but at this time Bright, who was shot in the shoulder, was too frightened to speak. When the words came, I could only look at Jules with a sad face and pleading, but Jules continued to say:
"The path of righteousness, surrounded by tyrannical wicked men, guides the weak in the name of mercy and goodwill. Blessed is he who passes through the path of darkness, because he takes care of his companions and finds the lamb that has gone astray. Those who dare to harm and poison my companions, I will Take revenge on them! Then they will know that I am the Lord!"
With Jules' more and more emotional chanting voice, the atmosphere in the movie theater was gradually pushed to a climax. At this time, the audience finally understood why Samuel in the poster was holding a Bible in his hand. - And a pistol.
After Jules finished reading, he and Vincent raised their pistols one after the other, and Brett's blood splashed with the sound of "bang bang bang".
I have to say that Quentin's rendering of violent scenes is very artistic. One moment Vincent and Jules are still bickering and chatting, and the next one kills life ruthlessly in cold blood. This strong contrast was pushed to its peak during the reading of the "Bible". Although the movie is only twenty minutes into the beginning, the audience is already fascinated by the storyline.
It's just that Pumpkin and Rabbit, Vincent and Jules, these people don't seem to have any connection with each other. And after this episode ended, black subtitles appeared on the screen, "Vincent and Marsha's wife", and when the picture reappeared, the main character became Bruce Willis again.
This made the audience confused, but at the same time they focused their attention, hoping that they could pay attention to every detail and understand the movie.
In a secluded bar, Marsha is talking to boxer Butch, asking him to intentionally lose to his opponent in his next fight so that he can get a decent amount of money. Butch used to be a famous boxer, but now he was old and considered weak, so Marsha made his opponent famous by asking him to lose the fight. After hesitating, Butch nodded in agreement.
While Butch took the money and left, Jules and Vincent, who had completed the mission, came back to meet Martha with their suitcases, but what was confusing was that 30 seconds ago, the two were still in suits, but now Wearing a t-shirt and casual clothes - and a very funny t-shirt, is it yesterday that the two of them completed the task?
Butch came to the bar and had a brief contact with Vincent. Vincent obviously looked down on Butch very much and humiliated Butch, but Marsha's call interrupted Butch's counterattack. Vincent walked towards Marsha, and Butch could only turn and leave.
Since Marsha has something to go to Florida, he gave Vincent a new task and asked him to spend one night with his wife Mia. Jules seems to gloat, thinking that this is the beginning of Vincent's disaster, which makes Vincent very helpless.
After leaving Masha, it is poisonous. Addicted Vincent went to the drug dealer Lance to buy a pack of sea. Lo. Because of this, he chose the most expensive, cool and fierce one. Vincent complained to Lance that his car was stolen, which made him angry and wanted to teach the damn thief a good lesson, but all the depression was injected into the sea. Lo. Because it disappeared after that, Vincent was completely high, and everything became better.
In the evening, Vincent went to Marsha's house to pick up Mia, which was undoubtedly the most amorous part after the movie started.
After Vincent entered Marsha's house, he never saw Mia, only the vinyl record was slowly turning, and then Mia's voice came from all directions on the walkie-talkie, full of mystery, Mia asked Vincent Free, while she hides in the room and sucks. poison. Afterwards, a pair of bare feet appeared in the camera, walked into the hall, and said, "Let's go!"
Although Mia did not show her front from the beginning to the end, it was a voice, a red lips, and a pair of bare feet, but it was full of infinite style and made people imagine, so when she was wearing a white shirt, black suit jacket, matching Egyptian With the usual hairstyle of a queen, Mia was only on stage, which made many audiences make amazing voices.
Mia brought Vincent to a restaurant in the style of the 1960s. The strong retro atmosphere makes the restaurant full of chic taste.
Mia always looked at Vincent with a hint of provocation, but Vincent remained vigilant - he didn't want to be another Anton, which made the two fall into an awkward silence ; But the mission request Vincent received was to make Mia happy, so in desperation, Vincent could only bite the bullet and chat with Mia.
During the chat, Vincent found that Anton's affairs were nothing at all, and the loneliness in Mia's eyes touched Vincent a little.
At this time, the twist dance competition in the restaurant just started, but no one wanted to come on stage to participate in the competition. Mia wanted the trophy, and she asked Vincent to accompany her to the competition. In desperation, Vincent could only agree.
On the spacious stage, Vincent and Mia stood barefoot facing each other, and then the song "You can never predict" rang, and the two began to twist, this kind of twist with a strong 1960s style. Twist dance, in an instant, all the audiences in the cinema have been replaced by the most brilliant era of jazz, blues, and rock.
Although it was just a simple dance, before I knew it, it became the most resonant scene since the movie began. Watching Vincent and Mia coming and going, Mia approached Vincent, Vincent stepped back awkwardly, and then Mia called for Vincent's cooperation, Vincent slowly matched the rhythm , This back and forth makes that kind of slightly ambiguous. The cheerful atmosphere of ignorance slowly flowed out. And Vincent's slightly awkward body language made many people chuckle softly.
In many cases, classics are often created inadvertently. This section is full of memories, full of interaction, full of tension, full of provocation, full of ambiguous. The most important thing is to recall the retro scene, which has become the most impressive scene in "Pulp Fiction". If Quentin saw the contented smiles on the faces of moviegoers at this time, he would be surprised.
In the end, Mia and Vincent still relied on tacit cooperation, won the final championship, won the trophy, and set foot on the road home with satisfaction.
When the two of them got home, they danced all the way into the house, Mia also turned on the jukebox, and wanted to continue dancing, and the atmosphere seemed a little warm. Unclear, Vincent fled to the toilet, hoping to calm down. Although it is now known that Anton's matter has nothing to do with Mia, Vincent also believes that if something happened to him and Mia, Masha will definitely not let him go, so he kept letting him go in the toilet. Calm yourself.
But Mia, who stayed in the hall, accidentally found the bag of sea in Vincent's coat. Lo. Because of this, she started smoking. But Mia is obviously against this poison. I don't know the strength of the product - and she had already smoked twice before today. Once she overdose, she immediately had nosebleeds, rolled her eyes and passed out.
