I think because seeing the movie from day one, I was sort of had a crush on Oomit Herman. And that whole sequence with Mrs. Wallace just alternates between the glamour and the excitement and the sexiness of all of it. She has this cool reel to reel tape player. She's doing drugs. When she comes down and she says she's ready, there's just a shot of her feet. They are just soiled, like gross, like gross. That is very consistent with what you said. Like, hey, the underbelly of this is that is- It turns out like it almost certainly didn't happen.
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.
