Miramax Films The film was heavily influenced by Amsterdam and weed
The majority of the script was written by Tarantino in a hotel in Amsterdam, as well as the local cafe “Betty Boop.” Hence, all the cultural references to weed in the movie including the conversation between Jules and Vincent about Dutch hash laws, how Mia loves to go to Amsterdam every so often to “chill out” for a few months, how Vincent rolls his cigarettes with a Dutch tobacco, and finally, when Butch calls Fabienne his “tulip” – the cultural symbol of the Netherlands.
