FILM NOTES

Pulp Fiction was released by Miramax Films in October 1994, directed by Quentin Tarantino. The film arrived as a defining moment in American independent cinema, weaving three interconnected crime stories through a fractured timeline. Its dialogue, structure, and ensemble performances reshaped what mainstream audiences expected from genre filmmaking, and it remains one of the most studied and collected films of its decade.

This cell, titled Mia Wallace, captures Uma Thurman's iconic character in close proximity with a dark-haired male figure across three consecutive frames. The tight framing and subtle shifts between exposures suggest an intimate, charged moment from their shared scene. For collectors, the confirmed Mia Wallace designation makes this a straightforward and desirable acquisition from one of cinema's most recognizable characters.
