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.

More quotes by Quentin Tarantino
I have loved movies as the number one thing in my life so long that I can't ever remember a time when I didn't.
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
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'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
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
It's a standard staple in Japanese cinema to cut somebody's arm off and have red water hoses for veins, spraying blood everywhere.
Quentin Tarantino
I hate The Confederate cause. I've always felt that they are our Nazis and the rebel flag was our swastika.
Quentin Tarantino
... Revenge, ... All of a sudden, revenge started brewing in the back of their minds.
Quentin Tarantino
To call Clive Barker a 'horror novelist' would be like calling the Beatles a 'garage band'... He is the great imaginer of our time. He knows not only our greatest fears, but also what delights us, what turns us on, and what is truly holy in the world. Haunting, bizarre, beautiful.
Quentin Tarantino
You're an actor, you want to do a scene in class. But one of the things I've always had is I've always had a really good memory. So I would go and watch a movie and then I would see a scene in the movie and I go, hey I'd like to do that in class this Wednesday.
Quentin Tarantino
My plan is to have a theatre in some small town or something and I'll be manager. Ill be the crazy old movie guy.
Quentin Tarantino
I don't have any bone to pick with critics. In fact, if I wasn't a filmmaker I would probably be a film critic. Most of my bone is I would be a better film critic than most of the film critics I read.
Quentin Tarantino
I always do an all-night horror marathon on Saturdays where we start at seven and go until five in the morning.
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
I don't want to deal with the underneath while I'm, you know, while I'm making it or while I'm writing it or when I'm making it. Because again, I don't want to hit these nails on the head too strongly.
Quentin Tarantino
Don't write what you think people want to read. Find your voice and write about what's in your heart.
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
If I've made it a little easier for artists to work in violence, great! I've accomplished something.
Quentin Tarantino
If I really considered myself a writer, I wouldn't be writing screenplays. I'd be writing novels.
