It has been a bit since anyone has posted here, but I’m new and have a question.
I cannot find an explanation for why there are two instances where dialogue in Pulp Fiction gets changed. Granted, one time is almost to be expected given that it’s a character reciting his ominous and foreboding speech. It’s reasonable to think that someone will change a word here or there when reciting from memory. I’m speaking of Jules’ changing, “…and you will know my name is the lord …” to, “…and you will know I am the lord” when talking to Pumpkin the the final act. But still, I wonder if any of you know if Quentin or Samuel explained it ever?
The second instance is more jarring for me. When Honey Bunny threatens the diner in playback. Her dialogue changes from, “Any of you fucking pricks move, and I’ll execute every motherfucking one of you!” to, “…and I’ll execute every one of you motherfuckers!”. I mean, it’s essentially a flashback, not a new reality. Right? Or is it?
Anyways, no doubt this has been discussed like crazy in the past and I’m just missing it. But I’m not finding an answer and figured that this lot is where to go for some insight.
It will also be interesting to see if anyone has eyes on this page so long after the release of this classic.
