Pulp Fiction (30th Anniversary Screening!)

Just because you are a character doesn't mean you have character.

“Zed’s Dead.”

Quentin Tarantino’s endlessly stylish, non-linear and infinitely quotable PULP FICTION is a modern masterpiece, featuring a killer soundtrack and an all-star cast whose characters have become practically ingrained into contemporary culture. I mean, who doesn’t love a Big Kahuna Burger or a $5 milkshake? The film is one of, if not the, definitive movie of the 1990’s. Starring John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Samuel L. Jackson, Christopher Walken, Bruce Willis, Tim Roth, Amanda Plummer, Ving Rhames, Maria de Medeiros, Eric Stoltz, and Harvey Keitel. Oh, and Kathy Griffin. (As herself.)

“One of the most influential films of the 1990s, Pulp Fiction is a delirious post-modern mix of neo-noir thrills, pitch-black humor, and pop-culture touchstones.” (Rotten Tomatoes)

“Unmissable.” (The Guardian)

“The talk is dirty and funny, the violence always waiting just around the corner.” (The New Yorker)
