I was watching Pulp fiction a few days ago and was trying to figure out what was in that Damn briefcase that Jules and Vincent carried around.

Was it Marselous Soul ????

Was it the diamonds from Reservoir Dogs the movie he made right before pulp fiction and They never found them ??


Somebody has to know.

Whenever asked, director Tarantino has replied that there is no explanation for the case's contents: it is simply a MacGuffin. Originally, the case was to contain the diamonds stolen in Reservoir Dogs, but this was seen as too mundane. For filming purposes, the briefcase contained an orange light bulb, silver foil, and a battery. Despite Tarantino's explanation, many theories have been proposed for the contents of the briefcase, for instance that it contains Marsellus' soul.[8]

The glowing briefcase is an unintentional echo of the 1955 film noir Kiss Me Deadly, in which a briefcase glows from its nuclear contents. When Tarantino learned of the similarity, he said it was purely accidental but that he liked the idea. The 1984 film Repo Man also contains an item held in a car trunk (a neutron bomb) that glows with radioactivity (and kills people whenever the trunk is opened). [8]
