a dw, learn salmon with reward winning offer is available language german has never been sent to the 30 years ago, a film debuted the change movies forever. it was a mash of trashy and classy cinema traditions that transformed how we make watch and talk about. so a movie who's impact continues to be felt across pop culture. that movie was pulled fiction. the,
8:31 am
the 2nd film from clinton parent tino was less of reinvention of cinema and a re mix of old tropes and a new style. but hit the movie world like a shock of address the v as anybody. everybody playing the wanted. yeah. who wouldn't pop? fiction, premiered in 1994. the felt a bit different than the other movies that can, that year the, they were mostly class a european or how square like birth by the sun, 3 colors red films supposedly about the real world about history, about politics,
8:32 am
about big ideas. pope fiction wasn't like that whole fiction felt like a movie and pretty trashing at that. it took recycled characters and story lines from a 1000 crime films we've already seen the. so we have the story of the to hit man on their final job fuels winfield and then some vague, the, the story of the mysterious, all powerful gangster, marcellus waltz. that's cry. pride. that god damn the story, the gangsters was the fence at all meal. was the
8:33 am
story, a book, a noble boxer who went through his fine sideboard and the story of a professional fixer who cleans. i've read this messy situations. here is how much some of the problems the actors in pulp fiction act as if their characters and a movie with snappy and instantly quotable movie lines. you know what they call a quarter pounder, with cheese. the metric system to chop a baby. said then did baby did this and
8:34 am
endless references to pop culture. nobody's going to hurt anybody. we're all going to be like 3 little find these here. and once finds the like the hi yolanda, watch bobby lights. cool. what cool with the window, and that's what we're going to be. we're going to be cool. hope fiction does not have a film score. instead, we have a series of needle drops, the movie the sometimes the songs play with in the world of the characters. and they even sing along the
8:35 am
sometimes the phones or outside the store used ironically to comment on a c, the, the violence in pulp fiction is both extreme and often absurd. i mean, do you think that god came down from heaven and stopped the mentorship moment in the face to do that, i didn't mean to do as an accident by themselves. none of these elements were new. it was out here in tino re mixed these old styles, creating a movie world that is entirely self referential or artistic approach known as post modern pets which it wasn't the 1st post modern film. but it was the film that will bring this artistic move to the
8:36 am
movie main street. the post modern is them is a rebellious idea that comes from french philosopher, it's likely jones plus why little top? and john boldly. yeah. and from american critics like frederick james, post modernism in art, means challenging the concept that there's one reality or one big story to explain the world. post modern artist can make art of anything. a pike, a urinal, even a dead sharp. they see no distinction between high art and pop culture and they see their own work as inseparably intertwined with the art of their past. a perfect example is the beatles sergeant pepper album covers the band stands before a crowd of their inspirations, artistic, historic, and political. marilyn monroe and bob dylan, marlon, brando, karl marx,
8:37 am
the beatles are saying they are involved reinterpreting what came before. even reinterpreting, previous iterations of themselves as pop artists to make art that will itself become grist for the cultural middle of the future. that's post modern fiction is post modern cinema from tip to tell, instead of one grand story to tell multiple narratives from different perspectives, even from different movies on the gangster film, the musical romance before moving it copies directly from the center of the past. the going briefcase seen echoes and almost identical image from fifty's. the wire used to be definitely the street crossing double take you folks have similar shot from alfred hitchcock's classic psych
8:38 am
fingers and the daunted square sight gag. come straight from old cartoons. let's watch what we see christopher walk in, playing a vietnam that talking to bush about is that that sacrifice to watch. it's on you daddy's wrist and it was shut down. anyway, we think last about the vietnam war, then about the vietnam war, movies like the dear 100, also starring christopher walken. this is what post modernist called hyper reality, art, imitation of artistic reality. the copy of a copy can feel more real than the thing itself. maybe the most post modern thing about pulp fiction. the one thing everyone notices is it's non linear story. ok. pay attention. here's the plot, the pulp fiction. we start medina, pumpkin and honey bunny plan the robbery. and then we meet philosophical hit that vincent and joules the cheeseburgers and killed the thieves. we sold the bosses
8:39 am
blowing briefcase at the bar. marcellus tells box of which to throw his expert vincent, bice heroin. before taking me out for a date, a dance and a $5.00 milkshake. back home t overdose is on his hair one but is saved by a shot of adrenalin to the heart. we flash back to purchase a kid hearing the story of his dad's gold watch, butcher wins his bike retrieves his dad's gold watch from his apartment, but there he surprises vincent and kills escaping. he and marcellus are captured by sadistic hillbillies, but bush and his samurai sword save them. marcellus forgives booked for not throwing the spice and butch and his girlfriend right off on said stroppy. then we go back to the pre k. c. vincent and jewels for 5 being shot. driving home, they mess up the car with a dead body and the width is called to clean things up. later having breakfast, the car and the pumpkin. honey bunny, robbery. known good shot. and they leave roll credits. but chronologically,
8:40 am
the film is all out of order. the dyna robbery actually happens in the middle, the suitcases, then the walls and the clean up row before them. after the cafe robbery, marcellus tells bush to throw his bike in somebody's drugs and goes out on his day with me. on that same night butchery calls his dad's watch story and wins this fight. the next day, which goes to his apartment, kills vincent stays. marcellus gets the girl and rides off into the sunset instead of one straight story pulp. fiction is a postmodern cook, coughing, a multiple timelines and multiple perspectives. major characters in one tale are just big players in other field undermines the whole idea that there is one big story. one big narrative that can explain everything which is most famous. post modern remax training, old culture into something new,
8:41 am
comes in the movies iconic, dancing the to the dance is pure. a post modernist. here in keynote, is stealing from classic sentiment and pop culture. to create a newly iconic moment. a movie magic director says he drew inspiration from disney cartoons and from his only guitar, making no distinction between high and low culture. some of the scenes dance who's come directly from an old episode of the batman t v series, others from police classic film 8 and a half the but the public option. dance is a mattress and ultimate re max of all the culture that's impacted and inspire. quinton guarantee, you know, the
8:42 am
old this is taking place inside jack rabbit slipped a themed restaurant where all the employees are copies of pop culture icons from marilyn monroe and buddy holly to james the the even casting john travolta as been some vega is post modern since watching travel to dance, pulls up cultural memories of the actor. it his most famous movie roles is if parents, he noticing, we also women, this pop culture, ocean. and the best way to understand this world is by re mixing and reinterpreting, the pop culture that made us fiction was and remains controversial as much for what parenting or says as for the
8:43 am
company to keep the the critics of pulp fiction, see a movie with no original ideas, just cut and paste job a films that came before what some post modernist, called influence, or inspiration. others think is just plain stealing one and that back. because many of the films, parents you know, chooses to grow from our black split patient movies of the 1970s films like shak super fly and coffee parents, you know, has also been accused of cultural appropriation. it hasn't health that his character is often leaned heavily on the n word. did you notice a sign up in front of my house? he said, good storage, jimmy, you've seen that remains hard to watch parenting to cast himself reading the main black character with a stream of racial courses. you know why you didn't see that side? what does it mean there to story? are they my business?
8:44 am
that's why this isn't just the pulp fiction thing guarantee uses the n word 38 times in jackie brown. and a john dropping a $110.00 times in his black, western jango and change the spike lee, another giant of independent cinema colo parenting for his use of the racial slurs the but samuel l. jackson, who is worked with both directors defense guarantee, you know, saying he writes intelligent and complex black characters. the another problem for many in pulp fiction is how the film depicts violence. it's not just that there's so much of that. it's a violence is often played for laughs for me to sing cool guarantee those arguments
8:45 am
. a very post modernist argument, is that on screen violence has nothing to do with real movie violence in care. and he knows you is not much different than a dance sequence. it's just another set amount of technique designed to dazzle the shock porter to take the one aspect of pulp fiction is legacy is harder to dismiss producer harvey weinstein parenting a work for years with weinstein. on 8 movies all that time. it was an open secret that weinstein was allegedly assaulting and sexually harassing women, many of them actresses in his own movements. one scene was found guilty of abuse in 2 separate trials, but he has appealed, and one of jesus is now being retried. parents, you know,
8:46 am
now says he knew about some of the abuse allegations at the time and that he should have spoken out the love it or hate it. you can't argue with pulp fiction success. it wasn't in the blockbuster to transform the movie business. there were american indian films before care and tina directors like jim germ loose colon brothers or david lynch were creating weird movie worlds with multiple story lines and post modern sensibilities. long before karen tino picked up his camera. but before karen, tino indeed films were more or less a niche business for a tiny audience. have sent a fine fiction turn caught movies the big business. it was the 1st old in the blockbuster made for just over $8000000.00. pulp fiction gross more than
8:47 am
200000000 at the box office worldwide. more than any are rated in the film before the traditionally in the movies in america will release slowly, starting in a few theaters and adding screens as word of mouth and critical support spread. pulp fiction, what's the big fast it was released on more than a 1000 theaters, a nationwide like a studio temple at work. whatever you think of pulp fiction? it's success created a new market for weird american films. helping directors who came before him find a broader audience and bigger box office? no, no, no, no i i sold the or the wave
8:48 am
assembly is one of the media. and it is best to dash, shooting has the give me advice. i want that fight, reach the out the there's a high speed for so ends here and then this execution type deal. yeah, i'd be very surprised by suspect was from breeders the with pulp fiction guarantee no more than just revive the hollywood career of john
8:49 am
travolta. the blockbuster success of his trashy little film helped open away for filmmakers as diverse as wes anderson and spike jones, christopher nolan and paul thomas anderson. top. they are weird. visions enter the main street. today there is no denying pope fictions in the movies. impact is seen every the pope fiction may have started as an india alternative film, but the movies iconic imagery has long since entered the main stream. they are part of the fabric of modern pop culture. referenced in cartoons and tv shows, cited ironically or not by artist high and low. the ninety's, so we've of pulp fiction imitators for summer. good. some were bad and some
8:50 am
were very, very ugly. they would use the same pallet of hip dialogue, jumbled story chronology, and nasty stylized violence to tell their stories on screen. his style has become so influential in 2018. the oxford english dictionary added the word parents, you know, ask to, it's lexicon. the whole sections influence with global mixed and drama. morris perils uses tarantino s techniques including multiple strand storytelling and non linear narrative shows the gulf who be doing this for you are doing it for me. so you need to know, you know, because you need to see one of those on a need to know basis things as
8:51 am
a like one of those james bond sales guy ritchie gave guarantee, knows slick pump savvy dialogue and over the talk movie violence, a british accent cut on this, thank you to come in to get one to name. i don't know what's called meeting us together. this taught that comes on i needed to speak and pulp fiction. got a german translation via action comedy knocking on having the store with both kitchen parenting to cross reference and put, noted the movies and tv culture of his child, only to see his movie become a cinematic lexicon. so the directors who came after him well, now living in the post modern universe made possible by quentin tarantino as pulp fiction. but some filmmakers are trying to look beyond the
8:52 am
30 years after pulp fiction post. modern self referential movies are everywhere. to have marvel blockbusters filled with superheroes exchanging movie references on what my, who, who told you that star trek terminator time comp time after time quantum leap wrinkled in time, somewhere in time. a tough time is hot, top time sheets bill and ted's excellent adventure, basically any movie that deals with time travel diehards. now as i was, this is known. kids animation is full of movie references. even though the audience, the kids we have often are not seeing the movies being quoted. the reason i know what you're thinking, he is the least qualified person to lead us. and you are right. the most successful female lead movie ever is a deconstruction of a pop culture consumerist icon. hey, barbara, you can't get more post modern, and i'm not sure. i don't have anything they plan just a giant blow out party with all the parties and plant choreography and of his focus
8:53 am
on this stuff. all right, so cool. this is, if we are all now evincing vague, walking through jack rabbit slims, surrounded by xerox versions of the stories that came before them within this postmodern image saturated copy of a copy culture. some filmmakers are trying to find a new way forward. mine usually died at 1st glance. 2023. oscar winter. everything everywhere. all at once seems to plain disabled postmodern gains. as pulp fiction. it puts pop culture referencing into overdrive zapping between films on or is like a hyper active kid surfing the, entered into much things. can you believe in a ticket through the sentiment at the heart of the film. however, it can you hear all the we can see you
8:54 am
spec subscriber, and you we are suppose to take these character seriously as real people, even as they are saturated, nearly drowning in outside media influence. the way the british director, joanna hall, takes a similar if far less hectic approach in her film, the souvenir part to read in it, you recount was the story of her real life. and from the ordinary, one of my favorite clothes, he's about us like a truly nothing seems to me he was quite dark, said to the extremely traumatic. oh, if it's a life in this deception this filtering at all to the cinematic means that cog as the director is using to process these buildings use many of the same tricks as parent tino but you'd never call
8:55 am
them tarantino at particular instead they are using post modernist methods to more accurately capture the felt experience of life for many of us at this moment, where all of us are struggling, defined reading from within our own personal digital information overload. you can call this modern isn't, or hyper modernism, or even post post. but whatever shape cinema is in now, whatever stories the next generation of directors once to tell and whatever forms they decide to use to tell by any search for the origin of today's movie, metal rooms must inevitably lead back to a scrappy little in detail. the premier then can 30 years of the,
