What means of sorcery be this?<br /><br />In all seriousness though, it really is nice to see someone else from my generation who isn't all caught up in the shallow, poorly made drivel that appears to have flooded the movie industry lately.

At the heart of it all, there's a story of redemption and spiritual growth. Jules and Butch both realize that they're better people than they imagined themselves to be. Despite the context - or perhaps because of it - the moment when Butch realizes that he's going to go back down into that basement is miconianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11780043930293977634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2037934573652570194.post-29286029488057436492010-06-21T09:51:35.245-05:002010-06-21T09:51:35.245-05:00Wow Josie, I love this.
