Pulp Fiction Twists and Turns 20 Years Old Today!
What a month! Last week we celebrate the 20th anniversary of one of our very favourite Films Forrest Gump, now it's the turn of one of the biggest indie films ever to hot the big 2-0 and say goodbye to its teen years!
.
What a classic! Pulp Fiction first premiered in May 1994 at the Cannes Film Festival where it picked up a Palme d'Or, the festival's top prize, this instant hit later landed in the UK's cinema screens today (10th September) the same year.
Quickly making a name for itself and changing the way people look and even make movies, this cult classic beat the odds when it outsold its main rival at the time which was Sylvester Stallone's The Specialist which was showing in twice as many screens! Unsurprisingly, this film went on to become the top indie film to gross over $100 million, not bad seeing as it cost $8.5 million to make and a further $10 million to promote! Wowzers!
To help celebrate, along with having our fab range of Pulp Fiction T-Shirts and Accessories, we thought we would pop together a few of our favourite moments from this iconic flick with some cool facts you might not have known.

Take to the skies! Is it really the weekend already?!?!
With our passports and boarding passes at the ready, we eagerly walk down the gangway as we get ever closer to reaching the big metal doors of the bright white aircraft that will transport us to far and foreign lands. We'll stow away our luggage before taking our seats and strapping ourselves in as we sit back, relax and wait for the screens to pop down to bring us some movie magic that will soothe our brow like a damp cloth on a hot day. We'll reach for our trusty camera ready to snap up the views from above onto celluloid wonder and capture them forever.
Have a happy retro weekend!
