Interesting comments in here from The Fish on turning down PULP FICTION (didn't like the glorification of heroin) and DO THE RIGHT THING (some of Lee's characterizations).

Lol. It's not every day you make a movie with a guy who becomes a girl and his BROTHER who does the same thing. Who's ever heard of that in human history before? I mean I guess I get it if you want to have your sex changed but your brother comes along for the ride? The hell?
