The movie "Pulp Fiction" was filmed in Los Angeles, California, USA. And this city is chosen most often for its convenience, because here is Hollywood, many actors live and there is a fully prepared infrastructure for filming. But convenience is clearly not Quentin Tarantino's approach. The movie was shot with a lot of references and the choice of the city is also a reference to the wild west, where there were no police and there was complete lawlessness.
