Butch courage and the nature of nurture

Laidler, Paul

Abstract

The article explores how courage is embedded in, and emanates from artefacts using The Gold Watch episode in Quentin Tarantino’s episodic film Pulp Fiction. Commentary is centred around the family heirloom and how this filmic timepiece simultaneously represents bravery and trauma prior to inciting epic dialogues that verge on the spiritual.
