      I agree! I think he's less pretentious that people think and just REALLY passionate. The films he references, the way he talks about character, and the way he lights up when someone gives him the opportunity to actually talk about film is proof of that. Thanks for watching!

      The movie was an ernest wish.
      Took me a while to realize that, but that's what it was. And how nice that we see Tarantino's capable of expressing something sweet like that, even if his way of saying it involves his signature ultraviolence.

      It's the same with any art form. I illustrate in my spare time and will sometimes talk to my friends about our individual process and they're often quite different. Some of us love to thumbnail and perfect the idea of an image before starting. Others like to play with penciling and erasing till we naturally find what we want. Some get strict with their penciling and go into great detail before laying anything permanent while others prefer to use their penciling as a rough guideline rather than a strict path to follow.

    I'm so over watching video essays from viewers that parade their opinions around as some objective truth. Even with the presentation of it being subjective, I think watching those videos steers that movie's audience too far into the direction of how the video maker sees it. Making videos entirely composed of actual insight from the creators instead was an excellent move. Great work, I'm really excited to watch more of your videos.

      Well in my opinion, the “journey” was boring and filled with a ton of loose ends. I truly believe that if some no name director had directed this without the star studded cast, no one would even know the movie. That being said, I love Tarantino, I love Brad Pitt, I love Margot Robbie and Margaret Qualley, the rest was just not my favorite of his work.

    • @zeltzamer4010
      @zeltzamer4010 4 роки тому +2

      pyropulse I think you’re just trying to side with Tarantino here because he’s Tarantino. There’s nothing wrong with the writer wanting to make the audience feel a certain way, and it doesn’t have to “obliterate their story” in the process.
      Edit: Adding to this, writing with results in mind can be extremely helpful, especially for beginning writers. Having some theme or goal to work toward in your writing makes the process of writing (and typically reading/watching it) much richer. If you write with none of that in mind, your story can spiral and spiral until it just becomes meaningless escapism (or perhaps not even that.) I’d argue that the best stories were written with a greater purpose, whether that be to entertain, to enlighten, etc. Just like the other guy said, not writing with results in mind has worked fine so far for Tarantino, but that doesn’t mean you should gate-keep other writers just because they do the opposite.

Delicious.
      One of my very top scene's of his, without a doubt. The Candyland dinner table in Django is also up there, as well as the diner robbery in pulp fiction. Very difficult to choose.

    this is one of my favorite movies, probably the one that made high-school me want to get back into writing and movie-making. i remember watching it in the tenth grade and being completely enthralled. everything is so perfect to me, I love the colors and the cinematography and writing. the cast, i really can’t imagine the film without any one of them. i got so happy when in this video i heard him say he writes it like a novel first without thinking too much about it (paraphrasing here); I have trouble structuring a screenplay, I’m a very visual thinker and need to describe everything, and I have so many ideas, I kind of do the same thing. But I’ve never tried actually writing it like a book first, maybe I’ll start doing that.

    Definitely, need to cover Heist movies, and I recommend a behind the curtain on the OCEAN's 11 (2001). Steven Soderberg Directing and Ted Griffin writing came together to create something really special. without Ted Griffin, you get Oceans 12 and the difference in quality shows, yet still, Soderberg makes it so visually compelling. I would love to get a look a the process behind such a complex and fun film. So much exposition yet it's so charming and funny you never notice the clues until that twist double vault ending. Very few films successfully pull the rug out from underneath you in such a satisfying way.

    • @BehindtheCurtain

    • @kevinw712
      @kevinw712 4 роки тому

      I don't think it was so much as "without Ted Griffin" as being a supposed answer as to why Oceans 12 is generally regarded as inferior. I think WB wanted to move too quickly for a sequel, they took an older script out of their vault that was about two competing thieves and rewrote it to shoehorn the entire Oceans team into one side of that battle, and I don't think Griffin himself could've necessarily still made cinematic gold out of that. With the first, while yes it was technically a remake, they were taking only the thinnest bare bones of the concept, collect an all star team of thieves to rob a Vegas casino. I mean have you ever even tried to watch the original Rat Pack film? It is AWFUL, nearly unwatchable. They had fun as they were making it, but didn't give a shit about the movie itself. So the heist in the remake is pretty much its own whole invention, and that even goes past the point of where obviously there'd be updates in the technology used. And in having Oceans 13 being able to have a worthy finish to the trilogy, the studio learned their mistake from 12. They commissioned Brian Koppelman and David Levien to write a script specifically for the idea.

    He answered my major question right off the bat. The fire in the film always bugged me, as it seemed kind of forced into the narrative. But it doesn't serve the plot so much as the subtext.

    A lot of what he's saying I've never put too much thought about for his movies, but makes sense. A lot of times critics will talks about how characters in movies do such contrived things - whereas Quentin puts a hard constraint that things always need to obey the rules and then just sees where a situation takes him.

    What I love most about Quentin's movies is his scripts, to be honest I don't know any other screenwriter as cool as him. And also what I appreciate most about him is the soundtracks of every movie he makes, in my opinion that's an element as important as a script, and like the own Tarantino said on a talk show; "that's the beat of the movie".
    P.D.; if I said anything wrong in English, you just correct me, it doesn't bother me at all.

    The best thing qbput QT movies is in fact the storyline, the depth of the characters, the dense, intricate dialogues. No special effect or huge action scenes are required. You kinda just fill the gaps with your mind, exactly the same way when you read a book. No amusing images, only the abstract ideas that you go through your thoughts as you make sense of the words printed on pages making you extremely excited.

    You have know idea, I have been learning and researching inglorious basterds so much these past few day, about the incredible writing process that Tarantino took with it and such. The film has grown on me significantly since first watch to where I would now rate it a 9/10 close to a 9.5/10. The effort that you put into these videos is greatly appreciated, and does not go unnoticed. Thank you. If I may provide a few ideas: perhaps a classic film, such as Casablanca or Citizen Kane, any Christopher Nolan film, Wes Anderson, Stranger Things and Good Time. Thank you.

    • @BehindtheCurtain
      @BehindtheCurtain  5 років тому

      Thank you for your fantastic comment! Inglourious has definitely become my favorite Tarantino film recently. Almost every list you find on the internet ranks Pulp Fiction as the best, which is CRAZY to me. Thank you for your suggestions! I really want to do a Christopher Nolan one. He's a very private man, so it's been a bit difficult to put something together, but I've got some ideas for it. Good Time was really good! That would be a fun video! Thanks again, William.

    For me by far Inglourious Basterds is Tarantino's best masterpiece because of the cast, and above all Christoph Waltz, whose role was Hans Landa. So without him, Inglourious basterds wouldn't have been a succesful movie, thank you Quentin for casting Christoph.

    • @errwhattheflip

    Most movie directors trying to adapt a novel for screenplay: damn it, now I'm gonna have to make a whole blueprint for this storyline so that it will fit in a 90 minutes recording.
    Tarantino: just let me write this novel so I can later adapt it into a screenplay because fuck it, it's twice the hard work but I'm a badass and I can.
