I Love PULP FICTION, but the debt it owes to Jim Jarmusche's
MYSTERY TRAIN has never been even partially paid. The most
innovative techniques in PULP FICTION were borrowed without a
backward look, from Jarmusch's film, while the story,
dialogue and characters are pure Elmore Leonard. For a film
that knocked everyone's head around, it is not really a very
original work.
