Quentin Tarantino — "It's not that I'm on this big crusade against linear storytelling, but the thing…"

It's not that I'm on this big crusade against linear storytelling, but the thing is it's not the only game in town. A novel can do that no problem. Novelist have always had complete freedom to pretty much tell their story any way they saw fit. And that's kind of what I'm trying to do.

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.
