I felt no obligation to bow to any 21st Century political correctness.

And I wanted it to be shocking.

Quentin Tarantino
When it came to a lot of these German actors with the English, they just couldn't do it. They couldn't get the poetry out of it. They couldn't own it and make it their own. And then Christoph [Waltz] came in, and I didn't know who Christoph was.
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.

Critics don't want to see directors they like make too much of a left turn. That's good for criticism.
Quentin Tarantino
He musta thought it was white boy day. It ain't white boy day, is it?
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.

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
