Title: COFFEE SHOP: SYDNEY VS PULP FICTION
Post by: cowboykurtis on April 21, 2003, 02:14:58 PM
ok, i just stumbled upon this, while watching pulp fiction for the first time in years: some of you may have already made this connection. watch the first scene of pulp fiction in the coffee shop, then watch teh first scene in sydney, once riley and hall are in the coffee shop -- the exact same songs are playing in both films. can some one back me up on this -- i wonder if p t anderson is paying hommage to pulp fiction or it was just a coincidental choice.

i love it too.

the tune was used in resivoir dogs too...i dont know if its a ripoff, it just has that western coffee shop feel to it. its probably been played in every diner in the western united states at one point or another.

thats kind of what i assumed -- almost like a pre-requisite for all coffee diners to have THAT song playing -- it should just become common practice -- if you shoot a scene in a diner you have to use THAT song -- that song is stuck in my head now, its quite bueatiful really -- really comforting for some reason.

Geez, I thought I was the only person who discovered this. It's true, the same coffee shop music is playing in both opening scenes. I would love to get it in some way. In "Pulp Ficiton", it's called "Coffee Shop Music" and in "Hard Eight", I think it's called "Country's Cool". Either way, someone should really get a hold of it or make an mp3 of it because it's really wonderful.

agreed -- it has a real "bitter sweet" quality to it -- it's like a fragile meek man wearing a burly set of cowboy boots...
