Antiheroes In Movies That We Can’t Help But Love

Jules Winnfield – Pulp Fiction

Yet another Quentin Tarantino film that relies on the use of an antihero is his film Pulp Fiction. At the start of the film, Jules Winnfield works as a hitman alongside the character Vince Vega. He has no consideration for human life and has no remorse killing a roomful of people just because he’s told to. Alongside the comic relief he provides throughout the of the film, he continually brings up an internal dilemma he’s experiencing about fate, who he is, and who he wants to be. At the end of the film, instead of killing someone, he has “a moment of clarity” and decides to leave everything behind and “walk the earth.” It’s an interesting transition but ultimately you’re happy for him.
