- This link is an article reviews Pulp Fiction, my focus film. It also mentions Resouvoir dogs which is another film I am researching by Quentin Tarantino. It useful because it shows how the films are on about crime but with a light-hearted point of view. For example, the well known scene were Steve Buscemi gets named Mr Pink in Reservior Dogs or when Vincent Vega and Mia Wallace start dancing in a restaurant in Pulp Fiction. It also discusses the impressive cast list Quentin Tarantino uses in each film, including: Samuel L Jackson, Harvey Keitel and Tim Roth (who features in both films).

- The second link reviews Inglorious Basterds as it wasn;t mentioned in the first article, I thought it would be good to get a seperate review. Similar to the other article exceppt it explains Tarantino's recent film and how a group of jewish mercenaries led by Brad Pitt set out to murder and scalp nazi soldiers of world war 2. It sounds like a gruesome topic (well it is) but the article describes how parts like the "pretending to speak Italian scene" are used to add a bit of humour to lighten the mood of the film.
