Help with pulp fiction?

Question

I've seen pul ficton and I understand what it's about but I get confused like the part where bruce willis comes in and kills john travolta, then later he's still alive WHAT THE ****? also the part in the beginning where the couple rob the diner turns out to be the end,there are also a lot more parts but if someone can explaine it to me or give me the scenes in order that would be great

Answer 1

the scenes are just rearranged to tell the story from different points of view

Answer 2

The scenes are not in chronological order. It's like three or four different stories all mashed together. The the loose ends are tied, just at different times. The movie was directed by Quentin Tarantino. He also directed Reservoir Dogs, which is pretty much set up the same way as Pulp Fiction.

Answer 3

the scenes in order:

1. The flashback to the young Butch hearing the story about the watch.

2. The apartment scene.

3. "Oh man, i just shot Marvin in the face!", and the scene where they go to Jimmies house to clean the car.

4. The opening scene/the final scene in the diner.

5. The scene in the strip club where Marcellus tells Butch to throw the fight

6. Mia and Vincents date.

7. The hotel room scene with Butch and his girlfriend.

8. The scene where Butch goes to his apartment and kills Vincent.

9. The rape scene, with Butch and Fabienne leaving on the chopper.

So if the movie were in the correct order, the last lines of the movie would be "Zed's Dead Baby, Zed's Dead."

it took me 2 viewings to fully understand it, but its a really great movie.
