In my view, Quentin Tarantino is one of the few people around that can be compared to Shakespeare. Pulp Fiction contains hidden plots, themes and issues. It keeps the viewer glued to the film throughout. It isn't one of those films which is only good at the beginning, it is superb throughout. Pulp Fiction is a collection Tarantino's original stories. They were all compiled into one. this is what makes it such an intruiging story. The main character in one part of the film is suddenly playing a supporting role in the next scene. With all the hidden themes and mysteries, it is simply a great film. The soundtrack matches the film. It is truly superb. The Film was nominated for 2 BAFTA Awards, 6 Golden Globe Awards, 7 Oscars and it was the winner of the Golden Palm Award at the Cannes Film Festival. The film was nominated for so many awards, and as I have said that the soundtrack matches the film, then I must back it up. The soundtrack won the best soundtrack at the Brit Awards, so it does matches the film in many ways. The Soundtrack has all the songs featured in the film, and also lines of dialogue from the film too. The songs range from tracks by Dusty Springfield to a not so famous band called the lively ones. All songs on this Soundtrack are truly great, and it doesn't matter if you thought the film was rubbish, you will love the soundtrack. The songs range from "Mexican Style" songs to "Chill out songs." This soundtrack is for anyone, whether you liked the film or not. In fact, I'm listening to it right now!

I don't tend to buy many film soundtracks but this and Resevoir Dogs are two that I made a point to pick up

Tarantino as Shakespeare, not sure about that? But it shows your enthusiasm for him is undeniable. Shame he pinched most of his directorial style from lesser known films and directors!! The soundtrack however, I must agree is great!
