Quentin Tarantino\'s 1994 Motion Picture

Quentin Tarantino's 1994 motion picture Pulp Fiction stands as one of the most intriguing films in all of history. The way that the director focused on presenting seven different episodes that are interconnected provides viewers with the opportunity to gain a more complex understanding of the message he wanted to put across. Gary Ross' The Hunger Games is also an interesting film when concerning the acting it puts across and the fact that it is dedicated at emphasizing a series of basic human instincts. One of the strongest similarities between the two motion pictures is that they both go at addressing stereotypes that are widely promoted in the contemporary society.

From the very first moment of Tarantino's film viewers are probable to get the impression that they are about to come across an archetypal action film that basically puts across ideas that have been addressed in a series of occasions and that tries to compensate through the ingenious nature of the conflicts that it contains. However, it gradually becomes obvious that even though the film contains most of the characters one would expect to find in a film with gangsters, drug abusers, and petty thieves; it generally presents a dysfunctional community. Surely, the characters are largely similar to all characters that one might think of when considering such a film, but the way that they interact with each-other, the events they go through, and the way that they react to them are all unique.

Even with the fact that they address a whole different topic from Pulp Fiction, The Hunger Games also put across elements that are archetypal in character. However, as the storyline advances viewers have the opportunity to understand that the motion picture is meant to deal with a series of matters in addition to the scenario involving a post-apocalyptic society dominated by ruthless powers. The mise-en-scene and the filming complement each-other and make it possible for viewers to be presented with an intriguing account involving archetypal characters going through experiences that are not actually that common.

It is very probable that both Tarantino and Ross focused on adopting attitudes that would make viewers regret that they ever had doubts regarding the two films. These two individuals actually focused on providing the wrong impression in the beginning only to get actively involved in making later scenes more elaborate.

Surely, it would be wrong to say that these films entail a lot of complex thinking, but it is likely that they were not designed to trigger philosophical discussion (even with this, they are both likely to have raised numerous debates concerning the nature of man and how he is inclined to abandon everything that he believes in when presented with epiphanies).
