"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."
"I'm a big fan of spaghetti westerns. They're my favorite genre."
"I don't like to repeat myself. I like to try new things."
"I have absolutely no hypocrisy or contradiction whatsoever to say that you know I abhor violence in real life and I can love it in genre. and I can love it in stories and I can love it in uh novels."
"I don't believe in good taste. I believe in my taste."
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.
