Some of his "less-violent" films that I did really enjoy include "Jackie
Brown", "Four Rooms", and "Pulp Fiction" (yeah, I know...sad that "Pulp
Fiction" could be considered a "less-violent" film
).
The first time I watched "Pulp Fiction", I hated it -- but I was
mesmerized by John Travolta's performance. His performance as a
sleazy, psychopathic murderer was (IMO) amazing, and Tarantino should
be given credit for casting a former teen idol in this unlikely role.
Travolta really emerged as an "actor" in that film, for the first time.
I've since watched it several more times, and have come to appreciate
other parts of the movie, too. Samuel L. Jackson did a great job in
his role, too, as did many of the lesser parts -- but it's still WAY
too violent for me.
