More from Quentin Tarantino
"I'm a big fan of pop culture. I think it's the language of our time."
"I don't have a problem with violence, I have a problem with reality. My movies are not reality. My movies are movies."
"Once the movie gets going, once the lights go down, you become a collective. There's you by yourself, but then there's all of you together. And then you start appreciating the movie in that way."
"I'm a big fan of the moment. I think it's all we have."
"I don't answer questions like that. I reject your hypothesis."
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.
