More quotes by Quentin Tarantino
I'm a big collector of vinyl - I have a record room in my house - and I've always had a huge soundtrack album collection.
Quentin Tarantino
I write movies about mavericks, about people who break rules, and I don't like movies about people who are pulverised for being mavericks.
Quentin Tarantino
You get to be analytical about the process and now I can watch the movie and see all the different connection things and see all the things that are underneath the surface.
Quentin Tarantino
I didn't want my script to get too out of control like that. So I actually made it a point not to do stuff like that, to pretty - to keep it more sparse than it's been in the last few years, or the last decade.
Quentin Tarantino
If I wasn't a film-maker, I'd be a film critic. It's the only thing I'd be qualified to do.
Quentin Tarantino
Spaghetti Westerns are really brutal and operatic with a surreal quality to the violence.
Quentin Tarantino
I don't believe in putting in music as a band aid to get you over some rough parts or bad film making. If it's there it's got to add to it or take it to another level.
Quentin Tarantino
I don't believe in elitism. I don't think the audience is this dumb person lower than me. I am the audience.
Quentin Tarantino
One of the songs that stayed in my head that I really considered a lot was an old folk song called 'John Brown' - not the abolitionist John Brown, but the one that Bob Dylan has covered and sung before. It's about a boy coming home from the Civil War, or maybe World War I even, and about his Mother seeing him all destroyed.
Quentin Tarantino
Sure, and that's the cool thing about DVD: you can pack stuff on the disc that would've been too much for the big screen because actually it would've only interested yourself and a bunch of fanboys, who wanna know everything.
Quentin Tarantino
To me, truth is the big thing. Constantly you're writing something and you get to a place where your characters could go this way or that and I just can't lie. The characters have gotta be true to themselves.
Quentin Tarantino
The only other animals that would be in the ballpark to be able to do it would be a gorilla, but it's not going to occur to a gorilla to strangle the life out of somebody. They might rip their head off, all right, but it wouldn't occur to a gorilla to just, I'm going to cut off your air.
Quentin Tarantino
I was just this video-store guy and now I was actually making movies and stuff.
Quentin Tarantino
I always knew I wanted to do a Western. And trying to think of what that would be, I always figured that if I did a Western, it would have a lot of the aesthetics of Spaghetti Westerns, because I really like them.
Quentin Tarantino
I've always thought John Travolta is one of the greatest movie stars Hollywood has ever produced.
Quentin Tarantino
I don't really consider myself an American filmmaker like, say, Ron Howard might be considered an American filmmaker. If I'm doing something and it seems to me to be reminiscent of an Italian giallo, I'm gonna to do it like an Italian giallo.
Quentin Tarantino
I definitely have some colleagues that I respect, and we get together from time to time. But I actually have just like genuine friends. Paul Thomas Anderson is a genuine friend. Robert Rodriguez is a genuine friend. Rick Richard Linklater is a genuine friend. Eli Roth is a genuine friend. And so is Edgar Wright.
Quentin Tarantino
I live in the Hollywood Hills. When I see a cop driving around there, I actually assume that he has my best interests at heart and that he has the best interests of my property at heart. I think if you'd go to Pasadena, they'd say the same thing. And I think if you knocked on doors in Glendale and asked them, they'd say the same thing.
Quentin Tarantino
That's how it always is with me: the thing that sets me down to start writing is usually not what I end up doing. Because, as much as I love genre, and I try to deliver the goods, I go off from it. I go do my own thing.
Quentin Tarantino
I surprised myself, that I was in the tissue of the character enough, that I could actually come up with something that I didn't actually feel or didn't believe.
Quentin Tarantino
