What’s in the briefcase?

What is in the briefcase? It is one one of the most-asked questions in cinematic history!

Some have suggested that it contains Marsellus Wallace’s soul that the mob boss had sold to the Devil in exchange for his street power, while others have theorised it could be Elvis Presley’s golden suit from ‘True Romance’.

While the question goes unanswered, the contents were originally going to be revealed as diamonds, though that was thought to be “too boring and predictable”.

Eventually, Tarantino opted to leave the reveal out of the picture entirely in favour of allowing audiences to come up with the answer themselves.

He explained: “I like the idea that you open up the briefcase in ‘Pulp Fiction’ and I don’t tell you what’s in there, but it’s up to you to figure out what’s in there and now that’s your movie and you make that decision somewhere down the line."
