Then you won't mind my corrections, right? I hope so, anyway.<br /><br />English uses single commas for main quotations and double commas for quotations within quotations. Now, you'll notice below that I do not follow this rule, but that's because I just can't be arsed to do it. Bear it in mind, anyway.<br /><br />"who meets his big hit in Pulp" -> "who met his big hit in Pulp", for temporal coherence with the rest.<br /><br />"Uma Thurman had his big hit" -> "her big hit"<br />I liked the titillating bit, though.<br /><br />"Where Pulp Fiction story fits?" -> "Where does Pulp Fiction story fit?", unless you want to be colloquial about it and I think it's not the case.<br /><br />"the femme fatale wife of the mob big boss" -> "the big mob boss' femme fatale wife" OR "the femme fatale wife with the big mob boss", depending on who you want to focus on.<br /><br />"silly chattering are another Tarantino's trademark" -> "are further Tarantino's trademarks". A plural verb must go together with a plural noun and a plural-accepting determiner.<br /><br />"the Jules' Bible passage" -> "Jules' Bible passage" and "the Vincent's death" I know what you mean, but "the" cannot go with someone's name.<br /><br />"Uma Thurman dancing, bath-talking and drugs" There's something wrong here. It may be the two gerunds and a noun, all with the person doing the action (should be all gerunds), or it may be a missing comma. I can't tell.<br /><br />"not everyone like Tarantino's" -> "not everyone likes Tarantino's". Yes, it's "people are", but "everyone is".<br /><br />"f*cking adrenaline" -> not cool. This is fucking Pulp Fiction, the one where we got all the "jodidos" from all these years in Spanish movies.Jordi Balcellshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00200189720838442406noreply@blogger.com
