Leaving you aware that you have changed‚ and able to describe the change‚ you find yourself questioning the person you were previously. First thing you know you’re saluting. This story is a cleverly disorienting journey through a landscape of danger

    Pulp Fiction‚ is considered by many to be a key example of post modernist cinema. Its use of non-linear narration‚ copious references to other movies and its off beat dialogue‚ combined with Tarantino’s unique style make the viewer aware that there is something different about this movie from most Hollywood blockbusters.
