Quentin Tarantino

Quentin Tarantino is one of my favorite directors in the cinema. He was born in Knoxville, Tennessee. His parents are Tony Tarantino, an actor and musician of an Italian descent, and Connie McHugh, who was of half-Irish and half-Cherokee Native American extraction.
When he was 16 years old, he went on to learn acting at the James Best Theatre Company. Ater that Tarantino wrote his first script, Captain Peachfuzz and the Anchovy Bandit. This is the first step in his career in the cine.

He rapidly rose to fame in the early 1990s as a latter-day auteur whose use of nonlinear storylines, edgy tough-guy dialogue, and stylized violence brought new life to familiar American film archetypes.

His first film was Reservoir Dogs (1992), a movie that set the tone for his later films. The script was written in three and a half weeks and was forwarded to director Monte Hellman by Bender. After this movie Tarantino made True Romance (1993). But he made success with Pulp Fiction (1994), the combination of clever dialogue and brutal violence. And after that there are a lot of movies: Four Rooms (1995), Jackie Brown (1997), Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003), Kill Bill: Vol. 2 (2004), Sin City (2005), Grindhouse (2007). He was an actor too and made: Desperado (1995), Four Rooms (1995), From Dusk Till Dawn (1996), Little Nicky (2000), Grindhouse (2007).

I like Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill and Sin City so much! Even the violence, they are funny movies, especially Kill Bill. The effects are amazing, because are “simple”. He always hires good actors in his movies too. He is unique!
