‘Pulp Fiction’ star on legacy of ‘mad genius’ Quentin Tarantino’s film 3 decades later: ‘We’ll know in 100 years’

And he delivered “Pulp Fiction.” “Breaking Bad” features scenes that leave you downright gobsmacked, and “Pulp” is rife with them — Mia’s overdose, Butch’s girlfriend forgetting his watch, Marvin being shot in the face and the ultimate scene of the robbery at the diner where Vincent and Jules are eating.

But like David’s creations “Seinfeld” or “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” “Pulp” incorporates a series of interesting, off-beat conversations: the importance of a foot massage, whether women with potbellies are sexy, if a pig (or a dog) is considered a filthy animal and if a pig (like a dog) can have enough personality to offset such a characterization.Those conversations might be between Jules (Samuel L.

Jackson) and Vincent (John Travolta). Or Butch (Bruce Willis) and Fabienne (Maria de Medeiros). But you could see them being between Larry and Leon on “Curb.” Or between Jerry and George on “Seinfeld.”Thirty years ago on Oct.

14, 1994, “Pulp Fiction” hit theaters in the US, arriving both before and after David’s heyday (“Seinfeld” debuted in 1989, “Curb” in 1999) and 14 years ahead of Vince Gilligan’s “Breaking Bad” (2008).
