Miramax favored Holly Hunter or Meg Ryan for the role of Mia. Alfre Woodard and Meg Tilly were also considered but Tarantino wanted Thurman after their first meeting. [24] [25] She dominated the film's promotional material, appearing on a bed with cigarette in hand. She was nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. Despite being launched into the celebrity A-list, Thurman chose not to do any big-budget films until Batman & Robin (1997) three years later. [26] In 1934, James M. Cain published one of the all-time greatest hardboiled detective novels, The Postman Always Rings Twice. Like Hammett, Cain explored a cynical worldview in which crime and corruption are commonplace. Cain delved into the darker side of human nature in The Postman Always Rings Twice, which revolves around a drifter named Frank who begins an affair with the wife of a diner owner. With vivid depictions of their sex life, along with a manic plot to kill the husband and steal his business, the book was once viewed as guilty pleasure reading, but eventually became standard fare for hardboiled fiction.

Whether you're seeking a recent Ann Patchett, an out-of-print Clark Ashton Smith, or that little blue book about a pony you had when you were a kid, we'll either have it on our shelves, or can help you find it. Locating popular fiction in the bathroom, Tarantino reinforces its association with shit, already suggested by the dictionary meanings of "pulp" that preface the movie: moist, shapeless matter; also, lurid stories on cheap paper. What we have then is a series of damaging associations– pulp, women, shit– that taint not only male producers of mass-market fiction but also male consumers. Perched on the toilet with his book, Vincent is feminized by sitting instead of standing as well as by his trashy tastes; preoccupied by the anal, he is implicitly infantilized and homosexualized; and the seemingly inevitable result is being pulverized by Butch with a Czech M61 submachine gun. That this fate has to do with Vincent's reading habits is strongly suggested by a slow tilt from the book on the floor directly up to the corpse spilled into the tub.
