Quote

Well, it's funny because, The Green Leaves of Summer and The Alamo theme are the same thing. There's just - the Brothers Four was a different recording of it.

I'm not saying it's a bad thing to do, but when you try to deal with prescient themes in the present, that is what you're doing.
Quentin Tarantino
Image
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
Image
I actually think one of my strengths is my storytelling.
Quentin Tarantino
Image
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.

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
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.

I am not going to tell you how I believe, but I do believe in God.
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 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.

I definitely have some colleagues that I respect, and we get together from time to time. But I actually have just like genuine friends.
Quentin Tarantino
Image
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 thing I don't understand is that average American movie-goers cannot watch a movie for three hours, yet they'll watch a stupid, boring, horrific football game for four hours. Now, that is boredom at its most colossal.
Quentin Tarantino

... Revenge, ... All of a sudden, revenge started brewing in the back of their minds.
Quentin Tarantino

I felt no obligation to bow to any 21st Century political correctness. What I did feel an obligation to do was to take the 21stCentury viewers and physically transport them back to the ante bellum South in 1858, in Mississippi, and have them look at America for what it was back then. And I wanted it to be shocking.

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

I was trying to do like a spaghetti western but using World War II iconography.

If I really considered myself a writer, I wouldn't be writing screenplays. I'd be writing novels.
Quentin Tarantino
Image
It's my job to look at other people's humanity and it's my job to, 24/7, look at my life and listen to everything everyone says, watching their faces, the little idiosyncratic aspects of human beings - it's like a sponge, I take it in.

If you're trying to drop ten pages from a screenplay, it hurts like hell, but if you just put it away for a month and then take it out, you can do it just like that!

I steal from every movie ever made.
