“Pulp Fiction” stays one in every of Tarantino’s maximum iconic motion pictures, that includes a lot of his most famed characters, from John Travolta’s Vincent Vega to Bruce Willis’ Butch Coolidge. Alternatively, Uma Thurman’s Mia Wallace, the spouse of gangster Marsellus Wallace, stands above all of them. The position marked the primary team-up between Tarantino and Thurman, who won a best supporting actress Academy Award nomination for her efficiency.
Curiously, many different actresses had been regarded as for Mia Wallace all over the casting procedure. Tarantino’s distributor, Miramax Movies, most well-liked confirmed stars within the early ’90s like Holly Hunter or Meg Ryan, whilst Tarantino in my opinion sought after Michelle Pfeiffer, who auditioned for the section. It might’ve been moderately the A-list selection for “Pulp Fiction,” given Pfeiffer’s earlier good fortune in motion pictures like “Scarface” and “Batman Returns.”
As the tale is going, Tarantino solid Thurman after their first assembly, although it is most probably Pfeiffer would’ve authorized of this ultimate selection. Pfeiffer and Thurman starred in combination in the 1988 length movie “Bad Liaisons,” one in every of Thurman’s first roles. So, expectantly, no onerous emotions came about between the 2 actresses.
