"Bruce had nothing but disrespect for American stuntmen and was always hitting them. ... I can understand his daughter having a problem with it, everyone else could 'go suck a d***.'"
"I'm not saying I'm a genius, but I'm saying I'm a really good filmmaker."
"Anything that I'm not interested in, I can't even feign interest. I can't do just this little bit to just get by."
"People can uh absolutely positively uh accuse my movies of being bloodthirsty. and they might very well be right and if that is not your cup of tea. then you should drink another cup of tea."
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.
