Part 7/8:
Ultimately, this scene serves as more than just a spectacle of violence; it represents Tarantino's willingness to challenge cinematic conventions and moral expectations. By inviting viewers to witness an execution with a sense of detachment, Pulp Fiction leaves us grappling with uncomfortable truths about entertainment, morality, and spectator complicity.
Tarantino’s direction and editing choices—in breaking the "rules" of traditional pacing—serve to immerse us in a world devoid of clear moral lines. By stepping casually into the chaos of his universe, he instills in us a kind of dark anticipation for whatever horrors might unfold next.
