Pulp Fiction (1994)
Erik Guzman April 24th, 2007
On this premiere edition of Watching Theology, the hosts of Watching The Directors spend a few minutes covering the ground rules. Then we dive in to Quentin Tarantino's 1994 breakthrough, Pulp Fiction. Join us as we look at this strange, foul universe that has created some of cinema's most memorable lines, scenes and songs. Rather than talk about the artistic merit, the technical ability or even the societal impact, we turn our narrow focus onto the theology and philosophy of Tarantino's story. Where is God in all this violence? Is there a moral code and does it have authority over characters? Did Jules undergo a religious conversion?
Watching The Directors next edition: May 1 – Alfred Hitchcock
Next WT edition: May 8 – Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat (1944)
