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
Image
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
Image
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.

I will never do Pulp [Fiction] 2 but having said that, I could very well do other movies with these characters.
Quentin Tarantino

One can be inclined to just say, F this political correctness! I don't have time for that!

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.

I'm not superstitious in my normal daily life but I get that way about writing, even though I know it's all bullshit. But I began that way and so, that's the way it is. My ritual is I never use a typewriter or computer. I just write it all by hand. It's a ceremony. I go to a stationary store and buy a notebook and then fill it up.

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
Image
I just don't feel the whole white guilt and pussy-footing around race issues. I'm completely above all that. I've never worried about what anyone might think of me 'cause I've always believed that the true of heart recognize the true of heart.

I was just this video-store guy and now I was actually making movies and stuff.

If I'm on an airplane, a Kate Hudson movie is what I'm looking for. I'll sit there and I'll cry. I think it's the altitude or something like that.
Quentin Tarantino

My writing's like a journey. I'll know some of the stops ahead of time, and I'll make some of those stops and some of them I won't. Some will be a moot point by the time I get there. You know every script will have four to six basic scenes that you're going to do. It's all the scenes where your characters really come from.

If I'm doing my job right, then I'm not writing the dialogue the characters are saying the dialogue, and I'm just jotting it down.

If the film is nominated for awards, and even if it wins them, it doesn't make the movie any better, just as if it's ignored that doesn't make the movie any worse.

Suddenly, Westerns, which were our action films and what the working man went to see to blow off steam and have a good time, became boring to most people growing up from the Eighties on, because they're kind of pastoral.

It's very important that every movie I do makes money because I want the people that had the faith in me to get their money back.
Quentin Tarantino

I like it when somebody tells me a story, and I actually really feel that that's becoming like a lost art in American cinema.
Quentin Tarantino

I'm basically like, you know, learned pretty quickly the guy who throws the first punch usually wins, so when people gave me a hard time I just punched them.

A lot of them [Germaqn actors] could come in and we could speak for the next nine hours in English and there would be no problem. It was - but it was - English wasn't the language for them to read poetry in. And there is a - there's a poetic quality to my dialogue.

I laugh all the time. I'm an easy laugher. You can find me on any set, because I'm always laughing.
