Written and directed by Quentin Tarantino from a story he conceived with Roger Avary, Pulp Fiction tells three intertwining tales of crime and violence in Los Angeles, California. Jason and Rob rewind to 1994 to review the independent crime film that celebrates its 30th anniversary this year - a film that spends considerable screen time devoted to monologues and casual conversations, and features an ironic combination of humour and strong violence. Vincent Vega (John Travolta) and Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson) are hitmen with a penchant for philosophical discussions. Their storyline is interwoven with those of their boss, gangster Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames), his actress wife, Mia (Uma Thurman), struggling boxer Butch Coolidge (Bruce Willis), and master fixer Winston Wolfe (Harvey Keitel).

¡Bienvenidos a un nuevo episodio de El Calabozo del Reverendo Wilson! Volvemos al formato original del programa para traer una de las grandes películas que inauguraron el nuevo milenio. "The Rules of Attraction", conocida en España como "Las Reglas del Juego", es la adaptación que Roger Avary dirigió en el año 2002 de la novela homónima del polémico y popular Bret Easton Ellis. Todo un despliegue audiovisual con un grupo de jóvenes actores en estado de gracia para conformar una excelente deconstrucción de las películas de adolescentes, y con la que Avary supo captar a la perfección el espíritu nihilista del autor de "American Psycho". Para analizar todo lo relativo a esta obra maestra, el Reverendo está acompañado del Sr. Darth de El Sótano de Radio Belgrado, asociando este capítulo como una extensión de ese reciente episodio de El Club Midian en el que ya se abordó la maravillosa novela de Ellis. Enjoy! Si te ha gustado el programa, recuerda que tienes la posibilidad de ayudar a El Calabozo del Reverendo Wilson dándole a "Me gusta". ¡Gracias y feed the cvlt!

A classic from the mid-90's this one! It's Quentin Tarantino's second movie, Pulp Fiction from 1994. Written and directed by Quentin himself, with some of the story by Roger Avary, this iconic movie stars John Travolta, Samuel L. Jackson, Uma Thurman, Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Amanda Plummer, Maria de Medeiros, Ving Rhames, Eric Stoltz, Rosanna Arquette, Christopher Walken, Bruce Willis. Now listen to this episode.

Vincent Vega (John Travolta) and Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson), two hit men working for mob kingpin Marcellus Wallace (Ving Rhames'), are sent to retrieve a very special and very mysterious briefcase for their boss. Vincent later must also show Mrs. Wallace (Uma Thurman) a good time while her husband is out. Butch Coolidge (Bruce Willis) is an aging prizefighter who is being paid to "take a dive", but instead accidentally kills his opponent, and tries to flee town, but not before getting his dead father's lucky golden watch.

Now, I was scanning the web the other day, and I came across a book about the making of Quentin Tarantino‘s first feature film. Quite fascinated that someone took the time to dig into the unreleased, My Best Friend's Birthday, which I've spoken about a bit on my podcast and also written a couple of articles about the film. So, as per usual, I invited the author, Andy Rausch to the show to talk a bit more about his book.Before this interview, I did not know that Andy has spent years interviewing other prominent industry names and has authored over forty non-fiction on specific works of established entertainment contributors.Writing forty books is no small feat.Some of Rausch's publications include Turning Points in Film History (2004), The Films of Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro (2010), Making Movies with Orson Welles, a Gary Graver memoir, and Fifty Filmmakers: Conversations with Directors from Roger Avary to Steven Zaillian (2008).But today, l would like to get into the weeds on Rausch's 2019, My Best Friend's Birthday: The Making of a Quentin Tarantino Film book, which is the story of a group of friends who set out to make their own movie in 1983, financing it with Tarantino's minimum-wage earnings from his job at a video store. In most biographies and Tarantino histories, this unfinished $5,000 film is mentioned only in passing and is looked upon as little more than a curiosity. But with this oral history, author/editor Andrew J. Rausch details how each of the friends came together, other early film projects they worked on, and how they ended up making (or trying to make) a black-and-white screwball comedy.Check out the show notes below for links to some of Andy's other books, all available on Amazon.Enjoy my chat with writer, Andy Rausch.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/2881148/advertisement

In 1992 he made his directing debut with Reservoir Dogs, a violent film about a failed jewelry store robbery. Two years later he established himself as a leading director with Pulp Fiction. The provocative film, which featured intersecting crime stories, won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes film festival, and Tarantino later received (with Roger Avary) an Academy Award for best original screenplay. For Jackie Brown (1997), he adapted an Elmore Leonard novel about a flight attendant entangled in criminal activities.Tarantino worked in a video store in California before selling two screenplays that became True Romance (1993) and Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers (1994).
