Continuity mistake: When John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson are fired at in the apartment, the bullet holes are already in the wall before the gun is fired.
Pulp Fiction (1994)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Quentin Tarantino
Starring: Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, John Travolta, Christopher Walken, Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Ving Rhames, Uma Thurman, Eric Stoltz, Rosanna Arquette, Amanda Plummer, Frank Whaley, Laura Lovelace
Vincent (John Travolta) is shot and killed by Butch (Bruce Willis) when Butch goes back to the apartment to get his father's watch. Mr. Wolf (Harvey Keitel) helps Jules (Samuel L. Jackson) and Vincent clean up the car and get Marvin's body out of Jimmie's (Quentin Tarantino) house before Bonnie gets home. Ringo (Tim Roth) and Yolanda (Amanda Plummer), who rob the diner at the start of the movie, negotiate with Jules who lets them go (he gives Ringo some money and they walk off with a bag full of wallets and other stuff). Jules retires from the hitman profession. God knows what's in the case, we don't find out.

Jules Winnfield: Ezekiel 25:17. 'The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyrannies of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness. For he is truly his brothers' keeper and finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.' Now I've been saying that shit for years, and if you've ever heard it, it meant your ass. I never gave much thought to what it meant, I just thought it was a cold blooded thing to say to a mother fucker before I popped a cap in his ass. But I saw some shit this morning that made me think twice. Now I'm thinking it could mean you're the evil man, and I'm the righteous man. And Mr. 9mm here is the shepherd, protecting my righteous ass. Or maybe it means that you're the righteous man, and I'm the shepherd, and it's the world that's evil and selfish. Now I'd like that, but you see that shit ain't the truth. The truth is, YOU'RE the weak, and I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm trying, Ringo. I'm trying real hard to be the shepherd.
Question: In the scene with Butch and Esmeralda in the taxi (right after he kills the other boxer), does anybody know why Quentin Tarantino made the view out of the rear windscreen look so fake?

Chosen answer: Tarantino is big on tribute to older films and filming techniques, hence the projection-style background.
