More from Quentin Tarantino
"If you're gonna make a movie, you gotta have a car chase."
"Not every movie needs to be made. Not every movie should be made."
"I'm a big fan of movie posters. I think they're a work of art."
"A writer, a writer- you know, you should have this little voice inside of you saying, 'Tell the truth.'"
"I'd kill a million rats, but I don't necessarily want to kill one in a movie or see one killed in a movie, because I'm not paying to see real death."
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.
