12:30 am
to do musicians who list beneath the panel of the size of film about the sounds of power and inspiring story of us divine music under the swastika may 25th on dw, the 30 years ago a film debuted, but the change movies forever. it was a mash of trashy and classy cinema traditions. transformed how we make watch and talk about so a movie whose impact continues to be felt across pop culture. that movie was called fiction. the,
12:31 am
the 2nd film from quinton parent tino was less of reinvention instead of the re max of old tropes and a new style. but it hit the movie world like a shock of address the of use anybody everybody playing the wanted. yeah. who, when pop, fixing premiered in 1994 that felt a bit different than the other movies that can, that year the, they were mostly class the european or how's fair like birth by the sun, 3 colors red films supposedly about the real world about history,
12:32 am
about the politics of a big ideas fiction wasn't like that whole fiction felt like a movie and pretty trashing as a back. it took recycled characters and story lines from a 1000 crime films we've already seen. so we have the story or 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 best, pri, pride, that god damn the story, the gangsters likes defense. a tall meal was the
12:33 am
story, a book, a noble box, or who didn't throw his bike. 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. what are they going to chop? a baby said then did baby did this and
12:34 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 what's finds the like. oh yolanda, what's bother like, what's 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, sometimes the songs play with in the world of the characters. and they even sing along the
12:35 am
sometimes the phones or outside the store used ironically, to comment. want to see the of the violence and pulp. fiction is both extreme and often absurd. i mean to 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 but themselves. none of these elements were new . it was out here and do you know, 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
12:36 am
artistic move to the movie main street. the post modernism is a rebellious idea that comes from french philosophers like these all plus while they are top. and john boldly. yeah. and from american critics like frederick jamison post modernism in art, means challenging the concept that there is 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 say no distinction between high are 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 cover. the band stands before a crowd of their inspirations, artistic, historic, and political. marilyn monroe and bob dylan, marlon, brando, karl marx,
12:37 am
the beatles are saying they are involved reinterpreting. what came before. even reinterpreting previous iterations of themselves as pop artists to make are that will, it will become brisk for the cultural mill of the future. that's post modern. pope 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, genres, the gangster film, the musical romance, the horror, movies. it copies directly from a sentiment of the past. the going briefcase seen echoes and almost identical image from fifty's. the wire gives me depth. the street crossing double take you folks a similar shot from alfred hitchcock's classic psych you
12:38 am
can just and the dotted square site gag come straight from old cartoons as much when we see christopher walk in playing a vietnam that talking to bush about is that dad sacrifice to watch sonya daddy's wrist and it was shut down. anyway, we think last about the vietnam war, then about vietnam war movies like the dear 100. also starting christopher walken. this is what post modernist called hyper reality, arts imitation of artistic reality. the copy of a copy can feel more real. the thing itself maybe the most post modern thing about pulp fiction. the one thing everyone notices is it's non linear story. okay, pay attention. here's the plot, the pulp fiction. we start in the diner pumpkin and honey bunny plan the robbery, and then we meet philosophical hit that vincent and jewels,
12:39 am
the cheeseburgers. i killed the thieves who stole the bosses flowing briefcase at the bar, marcellus tells box of which to throw his expert. vincent buys heroin before taking me out for a date, a dance, and a $5.00 milkshake. back home t overdose is on his hair when, but it's saved by shot of adrenalin to the heart. we flash back to purchase a kid during the story of his dad's gold watch. butcher wins, the spikes 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 the marseilles, forgives, but for not throwing his fight and bush and his girlfriend right off on said straw . then we go back to the briefcase. see vincent and jewels for 5 being shot. driving home, they mess up the car with a dead body and the work is called to clean things up. later having breakfast, the car and the pumpkin honey bunny, robbery. know and get shot. and they leave roll credits. but chronologically,
12:40 am
the film is all out of order. the diner robbery actually happens in the middle, the suitcases, then the wolf and the clean up for all before that. after the cafe robbery, marcellus tells bush to throw his bike in some buys drugs and goes out on his day with me. on that same night, what recalls his dad's watch story and winter's fight the next day, which goes to his apartment, kills vincent stays. marcella gets the girl and rides off into the sunset instead of one st story pulp. fiction is the post modern, coughing of multiple timelines and multiple perspectives. major characters in one tail are just big players in other. the field undermines the whole idea that there's one big story, one big narrative that can explain everything which is the most famous post modern remax,
12:41 am
trinity old culture. and to something new comes in the movies iconic, dancing the to the dance is pure post modernism reading. parents, you know, is stealing from classic cinema and pop culture to create a newly iconic moment. a movie magic director says he drew inspiration from disney, cartoons and from there's 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 tv series, others from police classic film 8 and a half the population dance is a mattress and ultimate re mix of all the culture that's impacted. and in spite quinton guarantee, you know, the
12:42 am
whole 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 jane speed, the leading testing 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 a zip care team that was saying, we all swim in 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 parents you know,
12:43 am
says as for the company to keep the, the critics of pulp fiction, see a movie with no original ideas, just cut and paste job of 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 boil 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 characters often leaned heavily on the n word. did you notice a sign up in front of my house? he said to the storage, i mean, you've seen that remains hard to watch parenting to cast themselves reading the main black character with a stream of racial courses. you know why you can see that side? what does it mean? there's a story. there's
12:44 am
a much business that's why this isn't just the pope 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 on chain spike lea, another giant of independent cinema called out parenting for his use of the racial slurs the . but samuel jackson, who has worked with both directors, defense parents, you know, saying he writes intelligent and complex black characters. the another problem for many and 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
12:45 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 the dance sequence. it's just another set amount of technique designed to dazzle the shock porter to take the 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 moving. one scene was found guilty of abuse in 2 separate trials, but he has appealed, and one of jesus is now being retract. parents,
12:46 am
you know, 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 teen 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 cult movies. the big business it was the 1st old in the blockbuster made for just over $8000000.00. pulp fiction gross more than
12:47 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 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 sold the or the wave
12:48 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 note more than just revive the hollywood career of john
12:49 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're weird visions enter the main street. today there's no denying pulp fiction into the movies impact the scene 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 were
12:50 am
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 parenting a ask to it's lexicon. both sections influence was global mixed in drama. morris heroes 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
12:51 am
a like one of those james bond sales guy ritchie gave guarantee, knows slick pump savvy dialogue and over the top movie violence, a british accent cut off this, thank you to come in to get this one to name. i don't know what's the cost of the meeting as a guide to the start that comes on. i need to speak and pulp fiction. got a german translation via action, comedy knocking on having the store postage and parents, you know, cross reference and put, noted the movies and tv culture and his child only to see his movie become a cinematic lexicon. so the directors who came after him, the well now living in the post modern universe made possible by quinton guarantee knows pulp fiction. but some filmmakers are trying to look beyond the 30 years
12:52 am
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 diehard. now as i was, this is known. kids animation is full of movie references. even though the audience, being kids, we have often are not seeing the movies being quoted as a 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 i call. hey barbara. you can't get more post modern. i'm not sure. i don't know everything they plan to chime, blow out, party with all the parties, and plan choreography,
12:53 am
and of his focus on dish stuff. all right, so cool. this is, if we are all now, vinson, vague, walking through jack rabbit slims, surrounded by xerox versions of the stories that came before them within this post modern image saturated copy of a copy culture. some filmmakers are trying to find a new way forward. i'm really nice. at 1st glance 2023. oscar winter. everything everywhere. all at once seems to be playing disabled. post modern games as bolt fiction. it puts pop culture referencing into overdrive. zapping between bill rashondra is like a hyper active kid. surfing the internet. too much can you believe and effective through the sentiment at the heart of the film. however, it can you hear on the we can see which
12:54 am
specs, right? we're supposed to take these characters seriously as real people, even as they are saturated, nearly drowning and outside media influence the the british director, joanna hawk takes a similar if far less hectic approach in her film, the souvenir part 2 unit you recount was the story of her real life test and from the ordinary, one of my favorite close to time. yes, i completely, nothing seems to me he was quite dark to the extremely traumatic for life in this deception that filtering it all through the cinematic means that cause as the director is using to process these buildings use many of the same tricks as parenting now,
12:55 am
but you'd never call them tarantino ask particular instead they are using post modern this methods to more accurately capture the felt experience of life for many of us at this moment we're all of us are struggling, defined, reading from with in our own personal digital information overload or you can call this metal, modernism, or hyper modernism, or even post post. but whatever shape cinema is in now, whatever story the next generation of directors wants to tell and whatever forms they decide to use to tell by any search for the origin of today's movie, medical must inevitably lead back to a scrappy little in detail, the premier and can 30 years of the,
