Description

Quentin Tarantino (b. 1963) began his career with one of the most profitable films in the history of independent cinema – Reservoir Dogs in 1992 – and won a Palme d’Or for Pulp Fiction two years later, at the age of 31. Somehow he has continued to top himself, reinventing his turbulent, provocative, inventive, musical style with each film. As much a virtuoso writer of dialogue as he is a crazy pyromaniac, Tarantino easily jumps genres from unforgettable female heroine stories (Jackie Brown in 1997 and Kill Bill Volumes I and II in 2003 and 2004) to explosive historical epics (Inglorious Basterds in 2009 and Django Unchained in 2012).
