Reservoir Dogs influenced Pulp Fiction

Reservoir Dogs is where Tarantino worked the method out and Pulp Fiction is where it became a form: chapters out of chronological order, long digressive dialogue about nothing placed immediately before violence, and the violence itself mostly off screen or abrupt rather than staged. Both also use a pop soundtrack as diegetic radio rather than as score, which was unusual in 1992 and standard by 1996 because of these two. Filed MEDIUM: one film-maker developing his own method, recorded for the same reason Perfect Blue to Paprika is.
