Quentin Tarantino


When in 1992 a film a"Mad Dogs"appeared in the cinemas directed through for nobody unknown Quentin Tarantino, critics shouted that we were dealing with the birth of true talent. However, when two years later the image"Pulp Fiction" came into existence, there was no doubt, that new era in cinema just started.The film got the Golden Palm in Cannes, the Oscar for the script and he was called, similarly to its author, as a spectacular.


Quentin, being a maniac of the cinema worked 5 years in video store . He had simple access to films and could watch them also during working hours. Every day he watched a few movies, from low-budget productions from Hong Kong to work of French "new wave". It was his film school.

At present Quentin Tarantino is probably one of most often discussed directors of our times. He is being introduced by many critics as the real example of the postmodernist director.
