About Quentin Tarantino (born 1963)
American filmmaker (Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Inglourious Basterds) whose intertextual genre-collage redefined 1990s independent cinema. Closely associated with Robert Rodriguez (frequent collaborator (From Dusk Till Dawn, Sin City)) and Paul Thomas Anderson (1990s indie-auteur peer). For an intellectual contrast, see Stanley Kubrick, meticulous formalist filmmaker (1928-1999) — Kubrick's films erase influences into singular monolithic vision through year-long shoots and 100-take perfectionism; Tarantino's foreground every reference as a deliberate tribute — the two opposite ways auteurist cinema can be made.
