Abstract: Pulp Fiction by Quentin Tarantino was made in 1994. With its novel and unique method and structure of narration, the film won many international awards including the Academy Award, the Golden Globe Award and the Golden Palm. The film adopted a seemingly messy but orderly form of expression, showing black violence, vulgar, marginal and other narrative elements, as well as subverting the traditional narrative perspective and space, creating a brand new visual experience for the audience. Today, China’s movie market is very prosperous, China has become the second largest movie market after the United States, and has the largest movie audience in the world. However, the overall level of Chinese film industry is low. This paper analyzes the non-linear narrative structure and omniscient narrative perspective of Pulp Fiction, thus exploring the feelings it brought to the audience through its unique narrative method. By doing so, this paper hopes to provide some reference for the development of Chinese narrative film.
