ABC News Online explores (not very deeply) whether David Carradine’s role in Kill Bill will revive his career in the same way that Pulp Fiction kick-started John Travolta’s. I tend to doubt it. Unlinke Carradine, Travolta was actually a very popular actor once upon a time. His role in Pulp Fiction simply re-introduced his abilities to an audience that hadn’t seen all that much of him since … well, since Saturday Night Fever.

Carradine, on the other hand was never as popular as Travolta, and has worked alot since his glory days on the Kung Fu TV series. As a result, his role in this film won’t seem as novel as Travolta’s in Pulp Fiction.
