Shout by Matthew Luke Brady

Pulp Fiction 1994

"That's when you know you've found somebody special. When you can just shut the fuck up for a minute and comfortably enjoy the silence."

I haven't seen this in years, but damn it's still holds up.

There's some many fantastic scenes and fantastic lines throughout. The dance scene, "Does He Look Like a Bitch?", "Royale with cheese", and the list goes on.

But man the thing that stuck with me the most on a re-watch is Jules as a character.

I notice that when he kicks off the monologue by dropping the question "Do you read the bible?", these a sense of repetition as if he asked this question multiple times before executing some poor bastards life, but the more he recites the bible verse, the more he slips back into a fiery craze. While he's often chilled and collective, but also the loudest thinker.

So in reality the film was about Jules learning to leave the thug-life behind, because he's trying real hard to be the shepherd.

Masterpiece!
