At the time Travolta was a long forgotten star who hadn’t been in anything in ages. Samuel Jackson was still playing very minor character roles and like he said Bruce was Die Hard Mr.Hollywood at the time. I would’ve never guessed it would’ve work out so perfectly. Those 3 guys are so perfect in each role it’s almost impossible to imagine anyone else playing them.
The fact he told Bruce “no” twice shows how dedicated he is to his stories
Every member of pulp fiction is perfectly cast in their roles ,that's why that film holds up all those years later .
Best decision ever! Im glad Bruce didn't get his feelings hurt and was open to listen to suggestions. We all ended up with a great movie to watch 😊
Ah Bruce...he nailed that role perfectly and added so much to the movie. His presence and realism was incredible. Prayers for u big guy. Legitimate tough and kind guy
I hope Bruce Willis can find peace. Dementia is such an awful disease.
I could listen to this guy talk about movies all day
What I love about Tarantino is that he respects his audience. He thinks you and I are infinitely imaginative. So he writes stories that are satisfying but leave room. And he picks actors that are visceral in their performances to create these epic moments. It's a real story. Not tripe. No exposition. You're invested in the characters in this story and you don't really know how to feel about it even after it ends. The conflict goes on internally. That's great cinema
This is why Tarantino has earned his pick of top talent actors in his films. He trusts the actors, and the actors trust him. Thank God Bruce Willis was humble and smart enough to trust Tarantino, because his role as Butch was perfectly cast, as were the roles of Jules and Vincent and everyone else in Pulp Fiction and all other Tarantino movies. The man has a profound knowledge of who will work out for a role and who won't.
It's always incredible how quickly into his career Tarantino got these HUGE stars to be in his movies.
Quentin is such a masterful storyteller
I love that Bruce Willis saw how fun the Vincent role was though. Thankfully he crushed it as Butch.
Pulp Fiction is one of the greatest movies ever made, every single person involved was masterful in their part. It's one of those movies you can watch every time it's on.
Love love love love love love love Bruce Willis.. I wish him well❤
I can't imagine anyone else saying "Zeds dead, Baby. Zeds dead."
Butch choosing a weapon is one my all-time favourite scenes 😂
he was perfect for that role too.
Bruce Willis was so ferking good in that. I remember at the time being so impressed with his performance. Everything about Pulp Fiction was so right.
great example of how a great visionary Tarantino is. he said it himself, Bruce Willis was on of the top 3 stars in the world and still got denied 2 roles in Pulp Fiction. Because Tarantino knew exactly who would fit
