Pulp Fiction Trivia

Jules:
In the screenplay, Butch is a featherweight boxer but in the film, Butchs opponent Wilson has his weight announced as 210 pounds, inferring that Butch is a heavyweight.

Vince Vega:
You can see Vincent entering the bathroom at the beginning of the film, when Pumpkin and Honey Bunny are talking about robbery.

Mia Wallace:
Uma Thurman based her dancing in the Jack Rabbit Slims dance scene on the character Duchess in The Aristocats (1970).

The Wolf:
Harvey Keitels character in this movie has the same specialized job as his character in Point of No Return (1993).

The Briefcase:
Speculation abounds as to the nature of the mysterious glowing contents of the case:
Quentin Tarantino has said that the bandaid on the back of Marsellus Wallaces neck had nothing to do with an allusion to the Devil stealing Marselluss soul... but that the actor Ving Rhames had a scar on the back of his neck he wanted to cover up.

Beatles Trivia:
Though there was a woman named Eleanor Rigby in Liverpool, she was not the inspiration for the song. Paul simply made up the name. The Father McKenzie in "Eleanor Rigby," was almost called Father McCartney, when Paul first composed the lyrics. However, a search in the phone book yielded the more general name McKenzie. The song has been recorded over 200 times, with interpretations by Diana Ross and the Supremes, Paul Anka, Frankie Valli, the Four Tops, Johnny Mathis, Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin and Vanilla Fudge.
