The film Pulp Fiction, directed by Quentin Tarantino, contains violence, sex and drugs but is an underlying religious film. The five main characters either follow the lord and are rewarded or they follow the devil and are punished. John Travolta plays Vincent Vega, Ving Rhames plays Marcellus Wallace and Uma Thurman plays Mia Wallace, these three characters represent evil and sin. Samuel L. Jackson plays Jules Winnefield and Bruce Willis plays Butch Coolidge and these characters represent good and follow a righteous path. The film is divided into four separate sections which are not in chronological order but coincide with each other at the end of the film. Pulp Fiction is violent, drug abuse and sex fill the film which promotes strong religious messages through choosing the right man or the devil's way. At the beginning of the film, Vincent and Jules are cold-blooded, murderous gangsters. They enter an apartment to obtain an important symbol in the film. It's a briefcase that opens with the numbers six, six, six, which is a sign of the devil. The case belongs to Marcello and is the first sign that he is an evil character. To recover the briefcase, Vincent and Jules must kill the people in the apartment. Before killing someone, Jules recites a verse from Ezekiel 25:17: "The path of the righteous man is hindered on every side by the injustices of the selfish and the tyranny of wicked men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, guide the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of the lost children upon you with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers And you with.. . middle of paper... his valley darkens the weak grants Marcellus forgiveness to Butch for throwing the fight and allows the blow to Butch's head to be nullified, then Butch rides off into the sunset on a motorcycle or on a helicopter. Pulp Fiction was brilliantly created to hide religious morality through an inappropriate film. Beneath the surface of drugs and violence the path of righteousness and the allure of sin is present throughout the film. Janet Maslin of the New York Times argues that "Pulp Fiction" leaves its viewers with a stunning vision of destiny, choice and spiritual possibility. The film doesn't need to become explicitly religious to resonate when a character escapes death on a motorcycle labeled "Grace." The film was very discreet about the appearance of religious morality it projected to the audience.
