The opening sequence of Pulp Fiction shows two characters in a diner. The first shot is a two shot of the characters, to show their casual outfits and posture. The male character has his feet up on the diner chair, showing that he is relaxed and nonchalant, he is wearing a hawaiin shirt and jeans, this adds to his casual attitude. The female character is sitting more appropriately with both feet on the floor and her hands on the table, she is wearing a long skirt and a casual, long sleeved top, this suggests that the woman is less relaxed than the man and is not comfortable in the current environment. There are close ups of both characters as they continue their conversation. The close up of the female character shows her expression of confusion and slight annoyance, this suggests that she isn't happy with what the male character is suggesting. In contrast, the close up of the male character shows his open expression and his suggestive eyebrow expression, this shows that he is giving the female character an idea that is potentially dangerous.

The male characters body language is very expressive with arm movements and leaning forward, this shows his enthusiasm in his own idea. The female characters body language contrasts completely, she barely moves other than to lift her mug and drink from it. This shows that she is not open to his idea and is not comfortable with it.
