Moviezzz: Surprisingly, Pulp Fiction has been the only movie Tarantino has had anything to do with that's been a hit at the box office, even though everybody seems to end up watching his films sooner or later. I remember seeing True Romance in a theater though and realizing during the Walken-Hopper scene that I was witnessing something special. Mrs. Thuro's Mom: I like the name Mia. You merely have to get the overdose scene out of your mind and concentrate on Mia Wallace's snappy repartee and dance moves. Or you can just pretend she's really being named for Mia Farrow.

My daughter is a complete and total Tarantino freak (she wants to name my granddaughter “Mia”, after Uma Thurman’s character in Pulp Fiction). We saw this movie long before she became a Tarantino fan, and we both enjoyed it. You definitely get caught up in these characters so that the movie is not just another mindless action picture. Brad Pitt was so funny. He has such a flare for comedy!

I’m always surprised to read that this was a box office failure. I saw it twice theatrically. I had the movie poster hanging up for most of the 90’s.

I think it may also be my favorite Tarantino film.
