The Oscar-winning screenwriter of Pulp Fiction is getting a heavy dose of reality.

Roger Avary, who cowrote the 1994 neonoir classic with Quentin Tarentino, was charged with gross vehicular manslaughter on Friday for a deadly car accident in Ojai, Calif., in January 

Prosecutors claim Avary, 43, was driving drunk the night of Jan. 13 when he lost control of his car and slammed into a telephone pole. A passenger Andreas Zini, 34, was killed in the crash. Avary's wife, Gretchen, suffered serious injuries when she was ejected from the vehicle.

Avary, who cowrote 2007's Beowolf starring Angelina Jolie, also faces two felony counts of causing bodily injury while intoxicated. A pretrial hearing is set for Feb. 20.
