Move over Spielburg.

Once upon a time, my favorite director was Steven Spielburg. No longer. I saw Pulp Fiction for the first time yesterday and I felt like I was given a huge breath of fresh air.

Most movies would strive to break cliches and be something you've never seen before. Pulp Fiction says, 'that's not the way to do it'. It takes every cliche possible for it's plot and twists it, jazzes it up to the point you hardly recognize it anymore.

Then there the chronology of the film. It ain't linear, let me tell you that much. The scenes are divided into chapters and then mixed up in no discernable order. You'd figure this would confuse the hell out of the viewer. Amazingly enough, anyone can follow the movie perfectly for "beginning" to "end". Once you realize that, it's awe-inspiring.

The actors are all absolutely perfect for their roles. Bruce Willis as a boxer in redemption, Travolta as a not-so-smooth hitman, Samuel L. Jackson as the other hitman who has had "a moment of clarity" during a job, Uma Thurman a .... I have no idea how to explain her really. All the actors, major or minor, were all cast with such (I hate to use this word again) perfection it's unbelievable.

The plot can go to hell compared to what makes this movie: Dialouge. You have not seen good dialouge until you catch this film. The references, the speed, the beat.... Unbelievable. Hell, first time through the movie, you won't catch half of it. (or maybe that's just me. Hey, I'm only 14, I can't be that good yet!)

So add this in with Kill Bill and Quentin Tarantino is my new favorite director.

Now, I must find DVDs of his other films. >.< No easy task.
