From

Quentin Jerome Tarantino[2] (pronunciation: /ˌtærənˈtiːnoʊ /; born March 27, 1963) is an American film director, screenwriter,
producer, cinematographer and actor. In the early 1990s, he began his career
as an independent
filmmaker with films employing nonlinear
storylines and the aestheticization of violence. His films include Reservoir Dogs (1992), Pulp Fiction (1994), Jackie Brown
(1997), Kill Bill (2003, 2004), Death Proof (2007), and Inglourious Basterds
(2009). He has earned an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award,
a BAFTA
and the Palme d'Or, as well as Emmy and Grammy nominations. His movies are
generally characterized by stylistic influences from grindhouse, kung fu, and spaghetti western
films. Tarantino also frequently collaborates with his friend and fellow
filmmaker Robert Rodriguez.
[edit] Early
life
Tarantino was born in Knoxville, Tennessee,
the son of Tony Tarantino,
an actor and amateur musician who was born in Queens,
New York, and Connie McHugh, a nurse.[3]
Tarantino's father is of Italian descent and his mother is of Irish and Cherokee ancestry.[4][5][6]
He was raised by his mother, as his parents separated before his birth.[7]
When he was two years old, he moved to Torrance, California
and later to the Harbor City neighborhood where he went to
Fleming
Junior High School in Lomita and took drama classes.[7]
He attended Narbonne High School
in Harbor City for his freshman year before dropping out of school at age
15, to attend an acting class full time at the James Best Theater Company in Toluca
Lake.[8] As an employee of the Video Archives, a now-defunct video
rental store in Manhattan
Beach, he and fellow movie enthusiasts, including Roger Avary,
discussed cinema and customer video recommendations at length. He paid close
attention to the types of films people liked to rent and has cited that
experience as inspiration for his directorial career.[9]
Tarantino has been quoted as saying, "When people ask me if I went to
film school I tell them, 'no, I went to films.'"[4] [edit] Film
career
After Tarantino met Lawrence Bender at a Hollywood party,
Bender encouraged him to write a screenplay. Tarantino directed and co-wrote
a movie called My Best
Friend's Birthday in 1987. The final reel of the film
was almost fully destroyed in a lab fire that occurred during editing but its
screenplay would form the basis for True Romance. In January 1992,
Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs
screened at the Sundance
Film Festival and was an immediate hit. The film garnered
critical acclaim. Reservoir Dogs
was a dialogue-driven heist movie that set the tone for his later films.
Tarantino wrote the script in three and a half weeks and Bender forwarded it
to director Monte Hellman.
Hellman helped Tarantino to secure funding from Richard Gladstein at
Live Entertainment (which later became Artisan). Harvey Keitel read the script and also
contributed to funding, taking a co-producer role, and a part in the movie.[10] Tarantino has had a number of collaborations with director Robert Rodriguez. Tarantino's screenplay True Romance was optioned and eventually released in 1993. The second script that Tarantino sold was Natural Born Killers, which was revised by Dave Veloz, Richard Rutowski and director Oliver Stone. Tarantino was given story credit, and wished the film well.[11] Following the success of Reservoir Dogs, Tarantino was approached by Hollywood and offered numerous projects, including Speed and Men in Black. He instead retreated to Amsterdam to work on his script for Pulp Fiction. After Pulp Fiction was completed, he then directed Episode Four of Four Rooms, "The Man from Hollywood", a tribute to the Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode that starred Steve McQueen . Four Rooms was a collaborative effort with
filmmakers Allison Anders, Alexandre Rockwell, and Robert Rodriguez. The film was very
poorly received by critics. He appeared in and wrote the script for Robert
Rodriguez's From Dusk till Dawn,
which saw mixed reviews from the critics yet led to two sequels, for which
Tarantino and Rodriguez would only serve as executive producers. Tarantino's third feature film was Jackie Brown
(1997), an adaptation of Rum Punch, a
novel by Elmore Leonard. A homage to blaxploitation
films, it starred Pam Grier, who
starred in many of that genre's films of the 1970s. He had then planned to
make the war film provisionally titled Inglourious Bastards, but postponed it to
write and direct Kill Bill
(released as two films, Vol. 1 and Vol. 2), a highly stylized "revenge
flick" in the cinematic traditions of Wuxia (Chinese martial arts), Jidaigeki
(Japanese period cinema), Spaghetti Westerns and Italian horror. It was based on a
character (The Bride) and a plot that he and Kill Bill's lead actress,
Uma Thurman, had developed during the
making of Pulp Fiction. In 2004, Tarantino returned to Cannes,
where he served as President of the Jury. Although Kill Bill was not
in competition, Vol. 2 had an evening screening, while it was also shown on
the morning of the final day in its original 3-hour-plus version with Quentin
himself attending the full screening. Tarantino then went on to be credited
as "Special Guest Director" in Robert Rodriguez's 2005 neo-noir film Sin City for his work directing
the car sequence featuring Clive Owen and Benicio del Toro. The next film project was Grindhouse,
which he co-directed with Rodriguez. Released in theaters on April 6, 2007,
Tarantino's contribution to the Grindhouse project was titled Death Proof. It began as a take on
1970s slasher films,[12]
but evolved dramatically as the project unfolded. Ticket sales were low
despite mostly positive reviews. Among his producing credits are the horror flick
Hostel
(which included numerous references to his own Pulp Fiction), the
adaptation of Elmore Leonard's Killshot
(for which Tarantino was credited as an executive producer although Tarantino
was no longer associated with the film after its 2009 release.)[13]
and Hell Ride (written and directed by
Larry Bishop, who appeared in Kill
Bill Vol. 2). Tarantino's 2009 film Inglourious Basterds
is the story of a group of guerrilla U.S. soldiers in Nazi-occupied France during World War II. Filming began in October
2008.[14]
The film opened on August 21, 2009 to very positive reviews[15]
and the #1 spot at the box office worldwide.[16]
It went on to become Tarantino's highest grossing film, both in the United
States and worldwide.[17] In 2011, production began on Django Unchained, about the revenge of a
slave on his former master. The film stemmed from Tarantino's desire to
produce a spaghetti western
set in America's Deep South;
Tarantino has called the proposed style "a southern",[18]
stating that he wanted "to do movies that deal with America's horrible
past with slavery and stuff but do them like
spaghetti westerns, not like big issue movies. I want to do them like they're
genre films, but they deal with everything that America has never dealt with
because it's ashamed of it, and other countries don't really deal with
because they don't feel they have the right to".[18]
Tarantino finished the script on April 26, 2011, and handed in the final
draft to The
Weinstein Company.[19]
Agency William Morris Endeavor reported Christoph Waltz was cast to play a German
bounty hunter,[20]
with Stacey Sher
producing. Although Will Smith and Idris Elba were heavily rumored to be
up for the title role, Jamie Foxx has
since been confirmed to play Django.[21]
Tarantino regular Samuel L. Jackson
will play Stephen, a wise, proud house slave. Leonardo DiCaprio
has also been officially cast in the role of Calvin Candie,
the primary antagonist in the film. Kevin Costner had been cast as Ace
Woody, a "vile and sadistic trainer of slaves who are forced to fight in
death matches for a plantation owner (DiCaprio)"
before he later dropped out due to scheduling conflicts, and has been
replaced by Kurt Russell.[22]
Kerry Washington
has been cast as Broomhilda, the
"long-suffering slave wife of Django."[23]
Other cast members include Dennis Christopher
as Candie family lawyer Leonide
'Leo' Moguy, Laura Cayouette
as Candie's sister, Lara Lee Candie-Fitzwilly,
M.C. Gainey and Tom Savini
as Big John and Ellis Brittle, two of the slave owners who separate Django and Broomhilda, Anthony LaPaglia
and Joseph Gordon-Levitt
as Australian brothers, Jano and an unnamed
character, respectively,[24]
who encounter Django while escorting slaves to a
fight.[25][26]
However, Gordon-Levitt has not fully committed to the film, due to possible
scheduling issues,[27][28][29][30]
and Gerald McRaney
and Michael K. Williams
in unknown roles. Tarantino-collaborator RZA
was cast as a slave named Thadeus. According to
ReservoirWatchDogs.com, Sacha Baron Cohen was cast in the role as
gambler Scotty Harmony who wishes to purchase Django's
wife from Calvin Candie.[31]
Reportedly, Tarantino is also interested in including Lady Gaga in the film to some degree.[32]
The film is said to be inspired by the 1966 film Django,
directed by Sergio Corbucci.
James Remar
is also involved in the film. The film is scheduled to be released on
December 25, 2012. [edit] Producer
In recent years, Tarantino has used his
Hollywood power to give smaller and foreign films more attention than they
might have received otherwise. These films are usually labeled
"Presented by Quentin Tarantino" or "Quentin Tarantino Presents".
The first of these productions was in 2001 with the Hong Kong martial arts
film Iron Monkey
which made over $14 million in the United States, seven times its budget. In
2004 he brought the Chinese martial arts film Hero to U.S. shores. It ended up
having a #1 opening at the box office and making $53.5 million. In 2006, the
latest "Quentin Tarantino presents" production, Hostel,
opened at #1 at the box office with a $20.1 million opening weekend, good for
8th all time in January. He presented 2006's The Protector, and is a producer
of the (2007) film Hostel: Part II.
in 2008 he produced the Larry Bishop helmed Hell Ride, a revenge biker film.[33] In addition, in 1995 Tarantino formed Rolling
Thunder Pictures with Miramax as a vehicle to release or
re-release several independent and foreign features. By 1997, Miramax shut
down the company due to "lack of interest" in the pictures
released. The following films were released by Rolling Thunder Pictures: Chungking Express
(1994, dir. Wong Kar-wai),
Switchblade Sisters
(1975, dir. Jack Hill), Sonatine
(1993, dir. Takeshi Kitano), Hard Core Logo (1996, dir. Bruce McDonald), The Mighty
Peking Man (1977, dir. Ho Meng-Hua),
Detroit 9000 (1973, dir. Arthur
Marks), The Beyond
(1981, dir. Lucio Fulci) and Curdled (1996, dir. Reb Braddock). [edit] Other potential
projects
Before Inglourious Basterds,
Quentin Tarantino had considered making The Vega Brothers. The film would have starred Michael Madsen and John Travolta reprising their roles of
Vic (Mr. Blonde) from Reservoir Dogs
and Vincent from Pulp Fiction. However in 2007, because of the age of
the actors and the onscreen deaths of both characters, he claimed that the
project (which he intended to call Double V Vega) is "kind of
unlikely now".[34] In 2009, in an interview for Italian TV, after
being asked about the success of the two Kill Bill films, Tarantino
said "You haven't asked me about the third one", and implied that
he would be making a third Kill Bill film with the words "The
Bride will fight again!"[35]
Later that year, at the Morelia
International Film Festival,[36]
Tarantino announced that he would like to film Kill Bill: Vol. 3. He
explained that he wanted ten years to pass between The Bride's last conflict,
in order to give her and her daughter a period of peace.[37] [edit] Personal life
Tarantino has been romantically linked with
American actress Mira Sorvino,[38]
directors Allison Anders
and Sofia Coppola, actresses Julie Dreyfus and comedians Kathy Griffin and Margaret Cho.[39]
There have also been rumors about his relationship with Uma Thurman, whom he has referred to
as his "muse".[40]
However, Tarantino has stated that their relationship is strictly platonic.[41]
Tarantino stated "I'm not saying that I'll never get married or have a
kid before I'm 60. But I've made a choice, so far, to go on this road alone.
Because this is my time to make movies."[42]
He also has said that he plans to retire from filmmaking at age 60, to focus
on writing novels and film literature. He also is skeptical of the film
industry going digital, saying, "If it actually gets to the place where
you can't show 35 mm film in theatres anymore and everything is digital
projection, I won't even make it to 60."[43] On, February 18, 2010, it was announced that
Tarantino had bought the New Beverly Cinema.
Tarantino allowed the current owners to continue operating the theater, but
he will be making programming suggestions from time to time. He was quoted as
saying: "As long as I'm alive, and as long as I'm rich, the New Beverly
will be there, showing films shot on 35mm."[44] His favorite music writers are Bob Dylan and Ghostface Killah from
the Wu-Tang Clan.[45] [edit] Influences and style of filmmaking
The trunk shot is used in many Tarantino
films, including Reservoir Dogs. Tarantino has created a unique style that is all
his own, combining styles from his favorite genres into brand new mash-ups,
making him one of the more recent true Auteurs. He
expresses his films exactly from his point of view, for example, in Kill Bill
he combined Sonny Chiba-style kung fu films and
spaghetti westerns. Tarantino is the first to tell people that he is heavily
inspired, in plot and style, by his favorite movies; and manages to pay
homage to his favorites, yet still create a film that has a unique feel to
it. He frequently employs a retro sensibility to his films, placing the
viewers in the old Saturday matinee movies or the 70's exploitation films. At
the same time, he adds personal touches, such as his frequent use of
foot-centered shots. Tarantino’s love of women's feet finds its way
into the majority of his films. His body of work features unique humor,
action, interpersonal touch, and fast-paced, pop culture-laden dialogue. It
has been claimed that Tarantino has written some of the best most memorable
dialogue ever heard in cinema.[46][47] In an awards ceremony in the Critics Choice Awards
celebrating Tarantino, he said he got his start in filmmaking in his 20s.
Music is an important part of his filmmaking style. He said he would listen
to music in his bedroom and create scenes that correlated to the music
playing.[48] In the 2002 Sight & Sound Directors' poll, Tarantino revealed
his top-twelve films: The Good,
the Bad and the Ugly; Rio Bravo; Taxi Driver; His Girl Friday; Rolling
Thunder; They All Laughed; The Great
Escape; Carrie;
Coffy;
Dazed and Confused;
Five Fingers of Death; and Hi Diddle Diddle.[49]
In 2009, he named Kinji Fukasaku's
violent action film Battle Royale
as his favorite film released since he became a director in 1992.[50] In August 2007, while teaching a four-hour film
course during the 9th Cinemanila International Film
Festival in Manila, Tarantino cited Filipino directors Cirio Santiago, Eddie Romero, and Gerardo de
León as personal icons from the 1970s,[51]
citing De Leon's "soul-shattering, life-extinguishing" movies on
vampires and female bondage, particularly Women in Cages. "It is just
harsh, harsh, harsh," he said, and described the final shot as one of
"devastating despair".[51]
Upon his arrival in the Philippines, Tarantino was quoted in the local
newspaper as saying, 'I'm a big fan of RP [Republic of the Philippines]
cinema.' Actor Steve Buscemi
has described Tarantino's different style of film making as "bursting
with energy" and "focused,"[52]
a style that has earned him many accolades worldwide. According to Tarantino,
a recurring hallmark in all his movies is that there is a different sense of humour in all his movies, which gets the audience to
laugh at things that aren't funny.[53]
Michael Winner, whilst appearing on an episode of Piers Morgan's life stories
(an ITV production), stated that Quentin Tarantino was a "big fan"
of Death Wish. [edit] Racial
epithets in Tarantino's work
Spike Lee
questioned Tarantino's use of racial epithets in his films, particularly the
racially offensive epithet, "nigger". In a Variety
interview discussing Jackie Brown, Lee said: "I'm not against the
word... and I use it, but Quentin is infatuated with the word. What does he
want? To be made an honorary black man?"[54]
Tarantino responded on Charlie
Rose by stating: As a writer, I demand the right to write any character in the world that
I want to write. I demand the right to be them, I demand the right to think
them and I demand the right to tell the truth as I see they are, all right?
And to say that I can't do that because I'm white, but the Hughes brothers can do that because
they're black, that is racist. That is the heart of racism, all right. And I
do not accept that ... That is how a segment of the black community that
lives in Compton,
lives in Inglewood,
where Jackie Brown takes place, that lives in Carson, that is how they talk. I'm telling the truth. It would
not be questioned if I was black, and I resent the question because I'm
white. I have the right to tell the truth. I do not have the right to lie.[55] In addition, Tarantino retaliated on The Howard
Stern Show by stating Lee would have to "stand on
a chair to kiss my ass."[56]
Samuel L. Jackson,
who has appeared in both directors' films, defended Tarantino's use of the
word. At the Berlin Film
Festival, where Jackie Brown was being screened,
Jackson responded to Lee's criticism by saying: I don't think the word is offensive in the context of this film ... Black
artists think they are the only ones allowed to use the word. Well, that's
bull. Jackie Brown is a wonderful homage to black exploitation films. This is a
good film, and Spike hasn't made one of those in a few years.[57] Tarantino has defended his use of the word,
arguing that black audiences have an appreciation of his blaxploitation-influenced
films that eludes some of his critics, and, indeed, that Jackie Brown,
another oft-cited example, was primarily made for "black audiences".[58] According to a 1995 Premiere
magazine article, actor Denzel Washington
also confronted Tarantino on his usage of racial slurs in his pictures, but
mentioned that Tarantino was a "fine artist."[59] [edit] Recurring
