The Gimp looking up in Pulp Fiction
Summary The Gimp is one of the most mysterious characters in Pulp Fiction, but in a 2020 interview, Quentin Tarantino revealed his dark origin story. Despite having an unsettling pitch-black comedic sensibility, Pulp Fiction broke out as a mainstream hit, with blockbuster box office receipts and impressive awards success.
The Gimp Was Originally A Hitchhiker Before Pulp Fiction Tarantino revealed The Gimp's backstory in a 2020 interview Close In a 2020 interview, Tarantino revealed The Gimp’s dark origin story. Tarantino explained that The Gimp was a hitchhiker that Zed and Maynard picked up several years before the events of the movie. By the time Butch meets him in that pawnshop basement, The Gimp has been trained by his captors to be “the perfect victim.
He also co-wrote the SNL movie It’s Pat alongside Julia Sweeney, Jim Emerson, and an uncredited Tarantino. This is likely how Tarantino and Hibbert met, and probably led to his Pulp Fiction casting. Sweeney also has a small role in Pulp Fiction as the junkyard owner’s daughter, Raquel, a friend of The Wolf’s. In many ways, It’s Pat is a companion piece to Pulp Fiction, although the critics found one to be vastly superior to the other .
When he’s on his way out of the pawnshop, and Butch hears Marsellus’ distressed cries, he can’t bring himself to abandon Marsellus – even though he’s his mortal enemy who, just a few hours earlier, was trying to kill him. So, Butch grabs a katana and returns to the basement to free Marsellus. Butch’s decision to do the right thing earns him the only happy ending in Pulp Fiction.
