A cinema legend, over 30 years of career behind him, nine films and a quarter as a director, in a few years he could reach the tenth and last of his career and then devote himself to theater or television.
A man who is always looking for new stimuli has come to make the characters of his films be interpreted by actors that in very few can boast of having had them, such as Samuel L. Jackson, John Travolta, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Uma Thurman, Kurt Russel, David Carradine, Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz and many others, all the way up to having an explosive duo like the one formed by DiCaprio and Brad Pitt on his last Once Upon a Time in Hollywood released short time ago.
A sentence that has often been attributed to him is: "he only steals from the best", many tributes to the great directors of the past, his idols since he was a child, between them you will find Sergio Corbucci and Sergio Leone.
Lover of spaghetti westerns and Italian trash movies nicknamed "B-movies". Unusual for an American with clear Italian origins who remained attached to them and who wanted to pay homage several times in his films.
Despite all the criticisms suffered during his career due to the alleged "thefts", his style is unique, the dialogues on the edge of the surreal are the fulcrum of everything, the settings take a back seat, Quentin succeeds in this way to give value 100% to his actors.
It must be said that his works are not for everyone, it is the classic director that you love him or hate him, vulgar language, black humor, a lot of sarcasm, they are relishing themes often considered taboos by most of the people.
Some scenes from his films are real icons of cinema, what to say about the legendary Mr. Blonde in Reservoir Dogs and his ballet while torturing a policeman.
Jules Winnfield's speech in Pulp Fiction from the biblical passage Ezekiel 25:17 is pure fantasy, with a nice mix of blasphemy.
The almost eternal Django Unchained final scene with the wonderful trio formed by Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz and Leonardo DiCaprio with the musical tribute to the Italian film "Lo chiamavano Trinità" with Bud Spencer and Terence Hill is something brilliant.
We continue with the hanging of Daisy Domergue in The Hateful Eight final by Major Marquis Warren and Sheriff Chris Mannix, funny and disturbing.
One of the most terrifying is certainly that of "Au Revoir Shoshanna!" of Colonel Hans Landa in Inglourious Basterds.
The importance of dialogues in brutal and violent scenes of his films are fundamental to break down clichés and laugh about tragic events, leaving us speechless and make us think but not collapse, this is my personal interpretation of Tarantino's works and I believe that without him the world of cinema would certainly not be the same.
I leave you with an interesting interview recently made by Marco d'Amore for RollingStone magazine, actor of the tv series Gomorra, to the American master, in which he talks about his career, his future and give some advice to Marco regarding the director's work, enjoy watching!
