Blog Assignment Scene

Pulp Fiction
SCENE FOR PROJECT LINK:
Pulp Fiction - sequence 25:17







 Overall I feel like this scene is a great representation of the film. Not to mention it is probably one of my favorite scenes from any movie of all time. It has everything in it. There is humor, action, and drama in it. Quentin Tarantino does and incredible job using sound and dialogue in this scene and in the movie itself. Of course Tarantino is known for his unbelievable ability to create interesting and endless amounts of dialogue. Also his ability to use music perfectly to get a certain feeling from each scene. Its something that I hope to understand when I work in the movie business.
As I said before Tarantino utilizes sound very well in this scene. The loudness of the gun shots and unexpectedness of them make the audience jump and get caught off guard. This is because the gun shot is a causal sound. This means it is the literal sound of a gun firing. If he tried using anything else to represent a gun firing it wouldn't have worked. Also it uses figure and ground well when showing them shooting Brett and Roger. That way the viewer gets the full effect and emotion of the action.
