    Why did Quentin Tarantino name the steak after Douglas Sirk and the burger Durwood Kirby in the restaurant scene of his "Pulp Fiction"?

    Question #84751. Asked by tjoebigham. (Aug 20 07 3:45 PM)

    		I'm not finding anything specific that points directly towards those two names. However, both the Douglas Sirk Steak and the Durward Kirby Burger come up in a broad discussion of Tarantino's love of film and his having paid homage to that particular era in the making of Pulp Fiction.
