If a Million People See My Movie, I Hope They See a Million Different Movies.
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'm not a huge big fan of music video.
Quentin Tarantino
ou know, if you want to see jackbooting Nazis in movies, you've got to watch American movies made at that time.
Quentin Tarantino
I wasn't trying to top Pulp Fiction with Jackie Brown. I wanted to go underneath it and make a more modest character study movie.
Quentin Tarantino
Leni Riefenstahl was the one person Goebbels had no control over in the filmmaking community of Nazi Germany, and they despised each other. But because she was Hitler's favorite, she could do what she wanted. She was the only filmmaker that did not have to cow down to Joseph Goebbels.
Quentin Tarantino
I try not to get analytical in the writing process. I try to just kind of keep the flow from my brain to my hand as far as the pen is concerned and go with the moment and go with my guts.
Quentin Tarantino
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.
Quentin Tarantino
I like a much more Japanese style of blood, where it's red and it almost has a paint kind of quality to it. You can put it on metal, and it has this vividness. Because, normally, what they use in Hollywood is this stuff that looks like strawberry pancake syrup or raspberry pancake syrup.
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 am not going to tell you how I believe, but I do believe in God.
Quentin Tarantino
Movies are not about the weekend that they're released, and in the grand scheme of things, that's probably the most unimportant time of a film's life.
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
The film [Django] really has a lot of ups and downs, and taps into a lot of different emotions. To me, the trick was balancing all those emotions, so that I could get you where I wanted you to be by the very end. I wanted the audience cheering in triumph at the end.
Quentin Tarantino
If you just love movies enough, you can make a good one.
Quentin Tarantino
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!
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
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
If there is something magic about the collaborations I have with actors it's because I put the character first.
Quentin Tarantino
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
