Laurence Bender was one of the producers of 'Pulp Fiction'. His work behind the scenes was crucial in bringing this iconic film to life. He was involved in various aspects such as financing, getting the right talent together, and making sure the overall production ran smoothly.
There could be various reasons. Maybe he had scheduling conflicts with other projects at that time. Or perhaps the role didn't quite appeal to him in terms of how he envisioned his career path at that moment.
The most obvious consequence for the movie was that they had to recast the role. This could have potentially changed the dynamic of the movie a little bit, but as we know, it was still a massive hit. For Laurence Fishburne, it was a decision that had long - term implications for his career in a sense. He may not be as closely associated with the Tarantino - esque style of filmmaking as he could have been. On the other hand, he continued to do other great work in different types of movies, so it's not like his career was negatively impacted in a huge way. It was just one of those decisions that changed the trajectory in a small way for both him and the movie.
Bradley Manning was a U.S. Army soldier. He leaked a large amount of classified information to WikiLeaks. This act was seen as a major event in terms of government transparency and national security. Manning felt that the public had a right to know certain information that the government was keeping secret, but the U.S. government considered it a serious breach of security.
As I haven't had the chance to read 'Waters of Gold by Laurence Yep', it's hard to say for sure. However, considering the theme of gold and waters, there might be an adventurous protagonist, perhaps a young person who is on a quest to find the gold in the waters. There could also be some antagonist characters, like those who want to hoard the gold for themselves or those who try to stop the main character from reaching the gold. And there might be some wise old characters who know the secrets of the waters and the gold.
Overcoming obstacles is also quite prevalent. It could be external factors like enemies or internal ones like their own insecurities. For instance, in many fanfics, they have to deal with people who don't approve of their relationship, be it as friends or something more. And this makes for an interesting plot as they fight against such odds.
Friendship development is a common theme. It often starts with them being comrades and then gradually growing closer. Another theme is loyalty, as they are both loyal to their causes and this loyalty can be extended to each other in the fanfiction.
