Great for bruce willis' family to attend. He was hugely missed
Yeah I was thinking about Bruce also
rip bruce
@@Gecko.... He's not dead
You feel a bit old when it’s 30 years since the Pulp Fiction was made
I know. I still remember a time when the 70s was 30 years ago and when even 1994 was 10 years ago.
ALL THE WISER. Now I just sit back and watch the world live in a Bubble with a ton of filters in fear of being shunned by people they will never meet in real life.
While Laughing hysterically at their so called PROBLEMS with life on the interweb.
@@jt.8144 aint' that the truth! I saw '30 years' and WHAT?! lol
Honestly, it's hard to believe it's been 30 years already.
yes🤣
Uma Thurman still stopping traffic! Damn!
Still the most gorgeous of the "Fox Force Five"!
It revived John's career.
And then somehow that second chance was squandered and he began churning out horrible direct to video embarrassments...HOW does that happen ❓
@@roccocupido5082unique career trajectory
Also Bruce Willis’s career.
@@imposible2beatnah Bruce was massive at that time
@@imposible2beatthe medical bills doesn’t pay themselves.
Uma must've worn those shoes for Quentin.
Foot fetish?
Jules and Vincent one of my favorite pair of bad ass characters in the movie.
they were legendary. The dialogue was incredible & so entertaining !
Great pair of outlaw characters...
Right up there with Butch and the Sundance Kid.
So sad that Bruce Willis can’t be there with them
UMA LOOKS DAMN GREAT!!! AMAZING!!! i mean, they all look great but UMA Outshines!
Bless Harvey he’s an old man now but looks happy and seems sharp ❤
Yeah, I’m routing for Weinstein also.. Me too.
Travolta looks amazing at 70.
Attended screening last night. It was almost 1 hour long. Other cast members were in audience. Eric Stolz Rosanna arquette producer lawrence Bender Phil Lamar among others.
Emma and Tallulah Willis were there. Awesome experience
How did people react to the "dead storage" dialogue?
@@georgedulle6601 ya know what...?? I think what made that dialogue awkward was the fact it was delivered by someone like Tarantino. If only he'd picked a more prominent..seasoned actor, like John Turturro, or maybe just another black actor, like Wesley Snipes...the dialogue and scene would've worked better...more believable.
I mean, did the character NEED to be a white guy..?? I just don't buy Jules would take that crap from Tarantino's Jimmy.
If only this was done in 2014.... Bruce would've been one of the guests, on stage.
Ving Rhames missing from the reunion. Marcellus Wallace.
They cut Pulp Fiction down to one hour? Those bastards!
Pulp Fiction is still my favourite movie ever, the classiest writing, directing, and acting. A true work of art…🙌
It's my favorite without the u.
Best movie ever made.
and forrest gump won best picture that year !
never watched the academy awards since
@@pdcdesign9632 In Britain and Ireland we spell it ‘favourite’ 😜
My God Harvey looks good for an 84 year old. Before googling, I thought we was late early 70s
He should run for president!
I can't believe we're talking about Pulp Fiction 30 years later, a movie that has aged like a fine wine over the years, which also won a Palm D'Or at Cannes Film Festival. So, I'm glad they reunited the whole cast for the 30th anniversary of the film.
Why wouldn’t we? It’s one of the greatest films ever made.
@@FastEddie86 Did you miss Bruce Willis or Tarantino in this reunion of Pulp Fiction's cast?
Yes of course. Bruce more though.
Sam Jackson's voice is so powerful he doesn't even need to hold the mic up close.
That's for sure !!
And he's always fashionable!
He hadn't lost a beat compare to Bruce Willis and Harvet Keitel. He has aged well. I'm envious.
years of treading the boards
@@user-er3ri6sc3j Harvey is 84 so fairplay to him
Travolta is 70 yrs old but he looks 20 yrs younger!
That’s cuz he bald
@@thegoodthebadandtheugly579exactly.
Jules just wandering the earth would have been the coolest movie
Technically it could be a movie now that QT scrapped the movie critic and still has one more movie to go. O_O
@@Techshadowzz He scrapped the movie critic?
Yup
But he would have been a fucxxing Bum! 😂
@@Techshadowzz
QT probably realized that he had just made a "Hollywood insider " movie and it would be better to finish up with something fresh, like most of his movies have been.
SLJ should have won the Oscar for this and Django Unchained. He’s absolutely sublime in both of these movies.
Mind blowing that Travolta & QT lived in the same apartment!
Stalker.
@@beingsshepherdu think he did that on purpose?
@@bztrd80 I think we shouldn't rule it out.
He's a huge fan, a huge nerd and consider the kinda creepy board game fantasy.
Like something out of _Misery (1990)._
@@beingsshepherd Quentin, is not exactly your typical “huge acne-faced nerd”. The board game thing is just a test he does (he did that with many other actors), it’s his way of “casting”. Go listen the way he got Bruce Willis, he was at the peak of his career in those years.
it could have been a scene like when Alan partridge met his biggest fan
Uma is gorgeous ,stunning beauty !!
I finally saw Blowout this year, very cool I can see why Tarantino rates Travolta in it
Blowout is one of my favorite De Palma movies and Travolta is excellent. The finale gives me the chills just thinking about it. Peak cinema.
@@mrsupertash So true, frankly the finale makes the film for me
I remember seeing "Blowout" when it first came out. Really enjoyed it. And developed quite a crush on Nancy Allen.
I saw it in when I was pretty young. Was afraid to go to quiet public restrooms for a while after that. I kid you not, I would look up to make sure nobody was coming over the top of the stall.
My favorite DePalma AND Travolta flick. Brilliant.
We were all young once
...Uma is still beautiful
I just had to check. Travolta is 70 years old and looks like that..
Amazing what plastic surgery can do
He aged very well! He's one of few..always loved him.❤️
that's really crazy. i had to go back to the video to see him again. if someone told me that guy was 45, and i didn't know anything about who he is and his career, i'd believe it
Pulp Fiction is a cinematic work of art. It was groundbreaking, original, and artistic. It was and still is brilliant. I loved this cast "reunion." They're all wonderfully talented individually AND dynamic collectively in this one-of-a-kind film.
I can't imagine, anyone else starring in this movie!
One of the best cast gathering of actors from a great movie I've seen in a long time
I heartily concur !!
Really? More of the actors from the movie and Tarantino being there would’ve made this better imo. Also, this is too short
Harvey is the best thing I remember about Pulp fiction, what a gentleman, what a man, what an actor
Pulp blew my mind so good back in the day. Greatly enriched my appreciation for film.
Please... PLEASE, Quentin! Cast these actors on your last film, I BEG YOU!
Yes! Would be shocked if they didn't show up at all, especially Sam Jackson and probably John Travolta and Uma Thurman as well
@@thesuperfan2457 Keitel was his ticket to produce Reservoir Dogs. If the didn't sign he wouldn't get either the production or the distribution.
@@ftuT I know, I just haven't seen Keitel in a movie in decades, pretty sure he's retired.
@@thesuperfan2457 true, he's showing his 85 in this interview.
@@ftuT could still see him in a small cameo though, I'm sure Quentin would love it
I love John's honesty, it was the same for all of them, they all got way more opportunities after that.
No question and Sam Jackson received more accolades for "Pulp Fiction" than he ever did for "Die Hard 2".
He became a serious actor who transcended stereotypes.
@charlie-obrien well of course Sam Jackson didn't receive any accolades for Die Hard 2 since he wasn't in that movie
@@jesseswarbrick7895
You're right...
I meant the third one.
Travolta told the whole Welcome Back Kotter board game story, amazing.
Harvey K is a mess - who knew?
@michaellasumiso3462 Is the sunglass-wearing man Harvey Keitel? It doesn't sound or look like him..
@@michaellasumiso3462the man is 84
@@annajacob7981 yes, though that’s just a shadow ofWhat he once was
@@michaellasumiso3462 Ok, thanks
I liked Uma’s Kill Bill/Kiddo 🤚 “here” joke
That deserved acknowledgment!
Uma looks absolutely GORGEOUS. 😮
Much like Gwenyth Paltrow, I think I prefer older Uma to her younger self.
She's always been one of the most stunning women on the planet, at 23 or 53....
Gwyneth.ugh.
@@January. Oh, you don't like smelly candles? 😛
Pulp fiction is an American piece of Art! Thank you QT and all the cast and crew for making an all time classic!
Thank you for this. Some of us out here can't afford to attend the festival, so being able to watch these interviews is the next best thing.
Pulp fiction helped sky rocket sam jacksons career to be a never ending ride of success! The Mans Nick Fury lol
Bruce Willis😢
All you need to know about Pulp Fiction is that Hollywood is a copycat town and yet 30 years later no one has even come close to replicating Tarantino's masterpiece.
It was an Independent film or maybe mainstream Hollywood-independent film..that’s what Miramax was especially in the 1990’s. Like how A24 is which is why I call A24 the Miramax of the 2010’s.
@@Dieafreak Well I didn't say Pulp Fiction originated as a Hollywood film, although it certainly was distributed and promoted like one thanks to Miramax. I said that if Hollywood sees anything make that sort of return on an investment they will try their damndest to copy the formula as many times as it's successful. I think to some degree that's what may have gotten Guy Ritchie films like Lock Stock... and Snatch faster greenlights subsequently. When Harvey Keitel expressed both pride and amazement that Tarantino wrote "FINAL DRAFT" on his script before handing it over to the Weinstein's, which effectively that QT was demanding the autonomy of an independent (auteur) film, without ceding all the benefits of the Hollywood machine backing it both in theaters and in Awards ceremonies.
That’s because Hollywood is racist af it hasn’t been duplicated because they have no talent but if they gave black men a chance they’d get it done…instead all we get is fcked in the movie
@S.T.A.R.S.Program Tarintino co-wrote it I believe with Avery. He also either wrote the screenplay or completely wrote the screenplay. Which the story and screenplay are two complete different things. If Pulp Fiction were directed by somebody else it wouldn’t be the movie it has been or is today. Tarintino really directed a certain way that became and is still a masterpiece and gave it style. The dialogue too.
I’ve worked in independent film in the past and you know the most important element or thing overall to a movie/ film is the director. Not so much the story writer, or screenwriter.
@S.T.A.R.S.Program What the fuck are you talking about? “Wanker”? You’re making a big deal over petty ass shit spilt milk. You got no life or something. Are you like one of those nerd “incel” outcasts who live on their moms basement
wtf is a Tarantino apologist? Is that a woke term now. Haha! Or an identificatin? There are people who identify as a “Quentin Tarintino apologists” ?
All those people that hadn’t seen Pulp Fiction were in for a surprise.
Haven't seen it yet.
@@kennethrussell1158 Go into it as if it’s a comedy drama and not some dark flick.
@@kennethrussell1158 Get ready for a surprise!
Imagine not having seen it 😮 What a moment when you start it 😊
Somehow these 1994 anniversaries are hitting me harder than '91, '92, '93 etc. Pulp Fiction, Clerks, Speed, Lion King, Hoop Dreams, Illmatic, Ready to Die, O.J. chase, Cobain's death, Nirvana Unplugged... so many.
I never thought of Pulp Fiction coming to TCM, but here we are.
God bless these four amazing actors and Bruce Willis who is greatly missed... Thank you for this lovely moment ❤️
What Nirvana did to the music industry, Pulp Fiction did for the movie industry. A literal change in the landscape of storytelling. I was there for them both.
You give nirvana far too much credit.
Uma in flip flops with her feet uncovered is like her subtly saying hello to Quentin who couldn't be there for the meeting.
Why could he not be there?!?
@@knownpleasures Probably afraid they'll ask him about how he almost killed her in the car accident on Kill Bill.
@@jedijonesno, obviously they’ve talked about their issues since then. Most likely it’s about the issues of the war.
@@knownpleasures I think he wasn’t there as it was only a day after it was announced that he is cancelling his upcoming film. He probably didn’t want to answer any questions about it or address it
Travolta is so wonderful here. Makes me realize I have rarely seen any interviews with him. Would love to see him make something good again. What a movie star.
As a lifelong film lover and TCM fan, watching these and this festival piece is so meaningful to me. I remember seeing Pulp Fiction at its debut and was blown away by its uniqueness and simple yet sophisticated storytelling. This film is a special gem, never to be duplicated, and having the privilege of watching much of the cast discuss it is a thrill beyond words. Thank you TCM and participants. Thinking of you, Bruce Willis. ❤
So cool to still have Harvey
He’s so special his scene was shot on a Sunday… which means extreme overtime pay because that’s a 7 day week
Uma is hot!! I can't believe 30 years. I remember going to see it, like it was yesterday.
Top 5 best movies of all time. Also, very nice of Uma to wear those gorgeous sandals. She is a cultured woman.
Harvey Keitel saying Harvey Weinstein's name while sitting next to Uma Thurman was a bit of a "yikes" moment.
I'm not sure Harvey knew where he was or who he was.
Yeah, these people are all complicit in his actions, don't fool yourself.
@@bjt81366tbh it's kinda charming how little of a shit he gives tbh
Weinstein is producer of Tarantino movies. know that fact?
@@ivan4087 I don't believe you.
Pulp Fictions is one of my favorite films ever, if not my number one favorite. I really wish Tarantino and Keitel would have made a movie about Winston Wolf. That was a great character.
uma looking gewd
She’s hot
Smoking
Back then this was the edgiest movie of that time
It was a wild movie and it was so compelling and moved with so much excitement and action.
Very unique.
So many great cast members
Harvey so young in Taxidriver
He was outstanding as the wolf in pulp.
Sam and John were iconic
This totaly revitalized Travolta career
The first time I saw this I was tripping balls.I remember the scene where Marcellus and Butch are talking and the camera doesn't move from Bruce's face....it changed my life....
John Travolta just enjoyed a PANTERA concert in Florida. Hes 70 years old. That's an amazing thing. ☝🏼
Thanks so much for sharing! ❤❤❤❤❤
✌❤🎥
🙏❤Bruce
Thanks for giving us this. I wanted to come to LA with my husband this year for the classic film festival. We are at least enjoying the experience-we love ya, Mank!
Mankiewicz is a good interviewer.
It was one of the best conversations this year at the festival and watching the film again was fabulous!
Great reunion! I've seen Pulp Fiction many, many times! But I still can remember the first time I saw it at packed Chinese Theatre, and the hilarious response of the audience. 👍🏼
Pulp fiction ii 👍👍👍
I was in college and remember how the movie blew my mind and opened my eyes up to another world I never knew. To all those who took part in the movie...I raise my glass to you and say thank you! 🍷
A world of sadomasochistic homosexual sex. heroin and hitmen?
Great job Ben. So disappointed I couldn't attend the festival this year. Thank you TCM for posting this video!
Shoutout to Bruce Willis
❤ Bruce Willis RIP
Maybe this is too bold a statement but I firmly believe Pulp Fiction is the most important film of the 90s. It can't be stated how big on an influence it had on movies for the entire decade.
Its hard to name a more influential film in the last 30 years... thats not saying BEST. but in terms of influence...
Love These Guys/Gal and Much Respect from this film lover/screenwriter in Boston! :D
John Travolta changed my whole life.
I got my first JT face tattoo. When I got out of prison everybody was real jealous of my new Ink!
PRICELESS. Grateful to have been there when it came out.
Yeah what John says about a writer having an internal rhythm in his head is very important. And it's true.
1994 might be the most important year in film for my personal experience. "The Shawshank Redemption" forever made me appreciate what film is, and "Pulp Fiction" forever made me appreciate what film can be.
And both lost to corny ass Forrest fuckin Gump. SO LAME
@@MrOuchiez I could not agree more.
@@MrOuchiez Forrest Gump was just as great a movie as either of those.
@@jedijones - I respectfully disagree. FG was a cheap nostalgia trip that was sold on "an amazing new filmmaking technique" (CGI) and lacked any real originality or substance. It was a schlocky rewritten American history montage at best. Even the soundtrack was corny. Zero originality especially in comparison to Shawshank and Pulp Fiction
@@MrOuchiezbla bla bla. Forrest Gump is fucking awesome and just as beloved as the other two movies, deal with it
Shout out to Bruce Willis, we love you man 😢❤.
It would be cool to see an origin story of the Beatrix Kiddo (Black Mamba)
Uma thurman is good looking.
She looks fabulous
wow, what a shocking statement.
06:08 that’s the dream for any improv actor too
QT KILL BILL Vol 3 MUST BE YOUR 10th FILM !!!!
OMG where has this channel been all my internet life?!?! I will go without sleep now with ALL this content!! TY TY @TCM!!
Out Standing thank you
Enjoyed it very much. Uma is more beautiful now, than ever before.
I agree I thought she was washed up. I am wrong. Seen her in person accidently in NYC Union Square Park nearby unknowingly. She is tall.
Just watched the Shawshank Redemption TCM interview before this one, remembered they were both released in 1994 but did some internet sleuthing and found that Shawshank and Pulp we're released October 14, 1994. I was 22 and went to go see both in the theater. Saw Pulp the 2nd week it was out and the theater was packed. Saw Shawshank the Saturday after it's release and there was less than 10 people in that theater (I only went bc I was a Tim Robbins/Jacob's Ladder fan).
too bad Ving Rhames wasn't there.
He would've most definitely given much better and insightful answers on THIS Tarantino movie than Harvey.... 😂😂
Could still be filming Mission Impossible 8 ... or kickin' it in the Carribbean.
i was thinking the EXACT same thing! Fuctup he wasn't there! Harvey, god bless him but he's basically Biden at this point. That's why Bruce didn't show up, he didn't want to come off like that dude.
Great to see Keitel looking well.
Was Harvey Keitel recently ill? Or something else..
He's a very private man & doesn't do a lot of interviews. That's why it's so wonderful to see him here. I wish he'd had more interview time.
He looks like he doesn't want to be there.
He doesn't look that well, to be honest
Give him a break he was Matthew Higgins a.k.a. Sport.
Groovy.
Bravo 👏🎬👏👏👏🎬👏
I met Robert Osborn in 2016 crossing the street in Columbus Circle once, such a sweet old man he even asked me my name and shook my hand. l'll never forget him or TCM
We need The Wolf prequel.
Awesome. Imagine watching this in the wayyy future, it will be a blessing to have around ❤🎉
Luv it..✌️💚
Breaks my heart how people have to get old.
No one has to.
It is not easy.
It should break your heart how many people don't.
True... Especially when it's people who you absolutely love...
It happens, I feel that sort of terror too.
Jimmy/Tarantino’s coffee monologue with Mr. Wolfe was f*cking hilarious. Also the walking intro thru Jack Rabbit Slims. Brilliant film.
Harvey Keitel played the role of "the Cleaner" in two consecutive films.
Kinda feel sorry Bruce Willis isn’t part of this
Don't be afraid to kinda feel sorry when your parents pass away.
First of all, I love the film and these actors. I miss TCM, my getting rid of cable. And I really miss Ben. I met him on a TCM cruise in which he got married. He introduced me to his father, hollywood royalty. Ben was as professional and kind as you would expect.
Me too! In order to save money I had to get rid of Hulu+Live, and losing TCM has cut me off from Ben and the great movies. It's changed my life, and not in good ways.
It feels weird to me that this film is 30 years old. I remember going to see it with friends, all of us anticipating something as good as reservoir dogs but not expecting it to be an absolute joyride that exceeded our expectations. Have watched it so many times since and it never ever gets boring.
It was possibly the only film I went to alone. I wanted to see it badly, had the afternoon off and no one was available, so I went by myself and don't regret it.
I fell in love with Tarantinos work in this film. The first one i saw by him. Theeeen I saw all the films and there is NOTHING better! Every film at least 3 times or more
Great stories! Keitel is a G! Just saw bad lieutenant last night!
Great interviewer. Very calm
Awesome
One of the most quotable movies in history. 🖤🖤
