The elusive content of the briefcase in Pulp Fiction has been the topic of many a discussion.

John Travolta said in an interview when asked what was in the briefcase "A bright yellow lightbulb".

In terms of story line some have said it to be Marsellus Wallaces soul. In some scenes you see a plaster on the back of his neck and this is said to be where the devil will suck out your soul. But if you see any of Ving Rhames other films, there is a scar on his neck.

This question will never be answered by Tarantino, and I dont think I want it answered. I love talking about it and if it ever came to light what was in the case, the discussions would be over!

The object that was inside the briefcase was a fraction of Marsellus Wallace's soul.

Or drugs.

This notion has been proven wrong many times.

Inside the briefcase is what is known as a "MacGuffin" it is purely a plot device.

A strong similarity has often been observed with the 1955 film noir Kiss Me Deadly, In which the briefcase contained radioactive material.

The idea that the briefcase contains Marsellus's soul gained popular currency in the late 1990s. Analyzing the notion, Roger Ebert dismissed it as "nothing more than a widely distributed urban legend given false credibility by the mystique of the Net"
