Of Tarantino’s acclaimed triumvirate, I don’t think it’s possible to choose which one is “best.â€â€œReservoir Dogs†was great for its raw emotion and energy, temporal pacing, faultless casting and astonishing script. “True Romance†is a more polished and mature work, which gains some power through the benefit of better production values while slightly sacrificing narrative drive in an (arguably) compromised third scene. “Pulp Fiction†stands as Trantino’s magnum opus and is an ongoing source of endless delight for the discerning film lover. It will certainly be remembered as one of the most influential films in the first 100 years of history of the cinema, transcending all currently-accepted artistic boundaries while simultaneously fulfilling audience expectations for great entertainment. It stands on its own as a perfect work, yet benefits enormously when compared and contrasted to “Dogs†and “Romance†(and continues the timelines, characters and key narrative structures laid down in the previous films).
Three truly wonderful films.
