There is a deleted scene in Pulp Fiction where Mia Wallace, Marcelle Wallace's wife, played by Uma Thurman, comes down from her little control room to meet with Vincent Vega. That scene never made it into the final movie, but it's alluded to when she refers to him as an Elvis man. "I'm definitely a Big Libouski man," he says after rewatching the film.
There are only two kinds of people in the world, Pulp Fiction people and Big Lebowski people. Now Pulp Fiction people can like Big Lebowski and vice versa, but nobody likes them both equally. Somewhere you have to make a choice. And that choice tells you who you are.
In the first episode of this two-parter, David and Tamler make that choice – and then go deep into the themes, performances, and philosophy of Tarantino’s iconic 90s classic Pulp Fiction. What’s the meaning of a foot massage? What counts as a miracle? Is failing to disregard your own feces a sufficient condition for a filthy animal? We have a lots to talk about, and time is short. So pretty please, with sugar on top, listen to the fucking episode.
