'Big Kahuna Burger' / 'Ezekiel 25:17' from Pulp Fiction

'Big Kahuna Burger' : https://youtu.be/Mnb_3ibUp38

I chose this scene because it is one of my favorite scenes in the film Pulp Fiction. The characters played by Samuel L. Jackson and John Travolta are hired guns and they go about their business in a very relaxed, casual and nonchalant manner. The setting is in a very average looking apartment that is untidy, and unorganized. The other characters are having breakfast when Samuel L. Jackson and John Travolta come to their door. For breakfast the men in the apartment are having hamburgers, which is quite unusual. I think the aesthetics of the setting and background in the scene are secondary to those of the facial expressions of the characters. Samuel L. Jackson is confident and beaming throughout most of the scene and the faces of the men in the apartment tell you as the viewer just how dire the situation actually is. When Samuel L. Jackson gets down to business after chugging Brad's Sprite, his tone changes dramatically.

The scene 'Ezekiel 25:17' which follows the 'Big Kahuna Burger' scene, concludes the interaction between the hired guns and the men in the apartment. I figured I would include that scene too for anyone who has not seen the film. 'Ezekiel 25:17' has the same basic visual aesthetics as 'Big Kahuna Burger', no music, only voices. The filmmaker used a fabricated bible verse in 'Ezekiel 25:17' that became one of the most famous scenes in the movie, and one of the most famous movie monologues of all time. The simple setting, absence of music and loud preaching-like vocals from Samuel L. Jackson allow the viewer to experience the scene (both scenes) for themselves and interpret the scene without any music or visual interference.
