This is an illuminating and provocative series of interview with one of the most popular filmmakers of his generation. Here, in his own colourful words, is the true American Dream saga of a self-proclaimed "film geek," with five intense years working in a video store, who became one of the most popular, recognizable, and imitated of all filmmakers. His dazzling, movie-informed work makes Quentin Tarantino's reputation, from his breakout film, Reservoir Dogs, through Kill Bill, to his rousing tribute to guys-on-a-mission World War II movie, Inglourious Basterds. For those who prefer a more mature, contemplative cinema, Tarantino provided the tender, very touching Jackie Brown. It is a masterpiece - Pulp Fiction. It is a delightful mash of unabashed exploitation and felt social consciousness - his latest opus, Django Unchained. From the beginning, Tarantino - affable, open, and enthusiastic about sharing his adoration of movies - has been a journalist's dream. This volume, fully revised and updated with twelve new interviews, is a joy to read because its subject has so much to say about his own movies, about cinema in general, and also about his unusual life. He is frank and revealing about growing up in Los Angeles with a single, half-Cherokee mother, and dropping out of school to take acting classes. Lost and confused, he still managed a gutsy ambition: young Quentin decided he would be a filmmaker.
