Why You Should Watch Pulp Fiction

Pulp Fiction was a groundbreaking in more ways than one. The movie grossed over $200 million worldwide against a budget of just $8 million, making it one of the highest-grossing independent films of all time, and won numerous awards, including the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival and Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. That massive audience numbers the movie pulled combined with its success in the awards circut helped shine a spotlight on indie films and establish the ’90s the as a great period for indie cinema.

The film was also distinct in its time for distancing itself from traditional linear storytelling, instead relying on a fragmented timeline and interwoven, non-chronological events to spin an enthralling tale of crime in Los Angeles. The movie’s non-linear plot makes it easy and entertaining to rewatch time and time again. Pulp Fiction, certified fresh on Rotten Tomatoes with a 92% critics’ score and 96% audience score, was also a cultural phenomenon thanks to a great soundtrack, iconic scenes, and quotable dialogue that is still buzzed about today.
