'Pulp Fiction's Non-Linear Plot Explained: Every Storyline in Chronological Order
Quentin Tarantio's Pulp Fiction features multiple storylines and it might get confusing as to what the chronological order of events is.
There’s been a lot that has been said, written, and argued about Pulp Fiction, and for good reason. Calling it a great movie is no longer an opinion but a widely accepted fact. A classic that is considered Quentin Tarantino's magnum opus, it shook up both independent cinema and the crime genre in the ‘90s. More than 30 years later, Pulp Fiction feels just as electrifying as it did when it first hit theaters. Of all its redefining elements, its out-of-order timeline stands out. Instead of telling a straightforward crime story, Tarantino and co-writer Roger Avary opted for a cinematic puzzle that chops the story into shuffled pieces that somehow make sense by the end. At first glance, it might feel chaotic, but when you put the pieces together, you’ll uncover a carefully crafted sequence of events that makes you realize that its scrambled structure is Pulp Fiction’s secret weapon.
