Jackson, 75, and Travolta, 70, reprised their roles as hitmen Jules Winnfield and Vincent Vega in the Quentin Tarantino-directed movie, which played a significant role in revitalizing Travolta’s career, boosting Jackson’s, and establishing Tarantino as a major creative force in cinema. Their portrayal of the hitmen, dealing with everything from fast food to fate, while fulfilling their violent tasks for their boss Marsellus Wallace (played by Ving Rhames), became legendary.

At the anniversary event, Jackson was seen with his wife LaTanya Richardson Jackson, 74, and fellow “Pulp Fiction” stars Travolta, Uma Thurman, and Harvey Keitel. Jackson wore a white collared long-sleeve shirt with a patterned lower section, beige slacks, black Adidas sneakers, and accessorized with a straw hat and brown-framed glasses. LaTanya, who has been married to Jackson since 1980, sported a black coat over a black dress, black sunglasses, and open-toe sandals.

“Pulp Fiction” is known for its unique narrative structure, interweaving three main stories: Vincent Vega (Travolta), a hitman working for Wallace; Butch (Bruce Willis), a boxer who disrupts a fixed fight and goes on the run; and Vincent’s partner Jules (Jackson). The film’s non-linear storytelling primarily revolves around Butch’s betrayal of Wallace, his escape with girlfriend Fabienne (Maria de Medeiros), and the pursuit by Vincent and Jules.

Jackson’s character, Jules, undergoes a significant transformation throughout the film, particularly after a pivotal and dangerous encounter leads him to a potentially life-changing decision. One of the film’s standout moments features Jackson’s Jules confronting restaurant robbers Pumpkin and Honey Bunny (played by Tim Roth and Amanda Plummer) during a tense hold-up.

“Pulp Fiction,” Tarantino’s second feature film following his 1992 debut “Reservoir Dogs,” was released at the Cannes Film Festival in May 1994, where it won the prestigious Palme d’Or before its theatrical debut.
