More quotes by Quentin Tarantino
There are a lot of bad screenplays so if you write a good screenplay people are going to respond to it.
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'll write for a while and then I'll find an appropriate song and in a weird way the music will keep me in the mood. I find music to define the mood of the movie, the rhythm the movie is going to play in.
Quentin Tarantino
What I would do is I would just remember the scene and I'd go home and I'd write out the scene from memory. And anything I didn't remember I would just fill in the blanks myself and then go and give it to a classmate and then we'd do it.
Quentin Tarantino
Sergio Leone was a big influence on me because of the spaghetti westerns.
Quentin Tarantino
I loved history because to me, history was like watching a movie.
Quentin Tarantino
Emotion will always win over coolness and cleverness. It's when a scene works emotionally and it's cool and clever, then it's great. That's what you want.
Quentin Tarantino
If my answers frighten you then you should cease asking scary questions.
Quentin Tarantino
If I really considered myself a writer, I wouldn't be writing screenplays. I'd be writing novels.
Quentin Tarantino
Novelists have always had complete freedom to pretty much tell their story any way they saw fit. And that's what I'm trying to do.
Quentin Tarantino
If you love cinema as much as I do, and not many people do, and if you are focused and actually have something to offer, you will get somewhere with it.
Quentin Tarantino
There was that last blast of Westerns that came out in the Seventies, those Vietnam/Watergate Westerns where everything was about demystification. And I like that about those movies.
Quentin Tarantino
Violence is fun, man.
Quentin Tarantino
The next movie will be in Mandarin. I enjoyed shooting all the Japanese stuff in Kill Bill so much that this whole film will be entirely in Mandarin.
Quentin Tarantino
I mean, of course King Kong is a metaphor for the slave trade. I'm not saying the makers of King Kong meant it to be that way, but that's what, that's the movie that they made - whether they meant to make it or not.
Quentin Tarantino
To really get to know people and discover humanity, which is what I truly think writers and actors do, you've got to be interested in other human beings, you have to be interested in humanity in general, and you have to do some discovering of humanity and different people.
Quentin Tarantino
I don’t want to be an old-man filmmaker, making old-man movies, and I don’t want to be the one not to know when to leave the party.
Quentin Tarantino
One of the things about writing a novel is you can do it any way you want. It's your voice that's important and I see absolutely no reason why a screenplay can't be the same. It makes it a hell of a lot easier when you're the writer and the director.
Quentin Tarantino
I don't think Pulp Fiction is hard to watch at all.
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.
