    About ten years ago I was eating at a restaurant when the Taviani brothers, two very well-known directors and winners of important awards in Berlin and Cannes, entered. I took courage and as soon as they finished their orders I approached them introducing myself as a cinema enthusiast and I was lucky enough to talk to them for 5/6 minutes. I told him that I was a profound admirer of John Ford and one of them looked at me and said to me.... Look, John Ford was our greatest master in cinema. Subsequently I asked them which Tarantino film was their favorite and they replied "Le iene" which is none other than the title translated into Italian of Reservoir dogs. This very important opinion confirmed to me that this is a film of great originality and quality.

His most famous role was playing John Dillinger in a gritty nasty movie called Dillinger. Tarantino loved the movie and it gave him a chance to have one his movie idols in one of his films. Just like he did with Pam Grier and Robert Forester. Too bad he never had a chance to work with his 2 favorite crime

      Nerdy guy doesn’t begin to cover it. He was a full on film nerd by the time he was 6. He was reading Cahiers du Cinema in his teens. He went to work at a cinephile video store that expected employees to be conversant in film. He didn’t go to work at a blockbuster. He was already writing and making short films.
      All of this is to say he didn’t one day step from video store clerk anonymity into the director’s limelight. He was consciously developing his talent from a young age.
      The main reason he went to work at this particular video store was to have access to harder to find movies.

    RE: Tarantino-as-Filmmaker ; Yes, this is his first movie, but *No,* not his first script. He also famously sold 2 scripts *After* Reservoir Dogs which also made it big("True Romance" and "Natural Born Killers"), but his own films all have his signature touches . Highly stylized, very well anchored in the Setting, pop music for soundtracks from many different genres, and sometimes philosophical dialogues between as many or as few of the cast as the scene needs: these are all key features of his films which will appear time after time. He's also quite fond of adaptation of the works of other people, and a deep dive into "Reservoir Dogs" will reveal it is practically a reboot of a foreign film. There's no shame in that, of course, and the same is true for "Magnificent Seven" or "A Fistful of Dollars".
    Tarantino is Italian by descent, and that heavily influenced his sense of how to make an entertaining film. And it is about half the reason why he became a strong advocate for lower budget films of a "B-Movie" class, the sort of films that would be shown as double features in cheap film theaters or a drive-in movie. See also: "Grindhouse".
    And if I had to compare Tarantino to an American director with respect to on-screen violence, it would probably be Sam Peckinpaw. Tarantino isn't afraid to show gore and explicit violence, but he's also a master at *Not* showing it (as Reservoir Dogs can prove) and letting your head do the rest. Peckinpaw is different because he uses slow-motion during the "high action" sequences, but Tarantino messes with Time by normally telling his stories "Out of Order" (like in Reservoir Dogs) or by Chapters (which he starts doing after Kill Bill).

    Apparently I am one of the few people in the world who saw _Reservoir dogs_ before _Pulp fiction_ came out. The thing that arrested me about the movie is that the writer has no tenderness for the characters: Orange, who is - if anyone is - the hero, is bleeding out in the back of a car before we know what's happening; the citizen who shoots him is instantly killed by him; the cop who Orange saves by shooting Blonde is almost immediately shot and killed by Nice Guy Eddie. The plot is everything, and all the characters are sacrificed to it.

      Death Proof is good, some really great stuntwork in it, but seeing that and Planet Terror together as a sort of homage to "grindhouse" B-grade cinema was the intention (fake movie trailers and all, some of which did get turned into actual movies later).

      True, for sure it's one of the best examples that you don't need big budgets, tones of CGI and FX, as long as you have a great script, great dialogue and actors that can deliver.
      Another example of an early masterpiece with low budget for me is "Memento". It's sad that there are not more movies like this. I'm sure there are still a lot of creative and talented filmmakers out there, that just never get a chance, because "the industry" don't take risks and pump all their money in sequels, franchises, remakes and reboots.

    Reservoir Dogs is still my fave Quentin Tarantino film. When it came out at the cinema, there was a lot of fuss about it being banned to video, so it stayed at the cinema for over a year. I got hold of a good quality VHS video of it and went around lots of people's houses to watch it. I've seen it over two dozen times. The film feels like an old friend.

  • @bobschenkel7921

    Mr. Tarantino's "style" is, he drops you right into the middle of the action, and then goes back later to explain things. When you do "Pulp Fiction" you will see a similar scenario, but different, you know? The radio DJ who introduces "Stuck In The Middle With You" is Comedian Steven Wright. Steve Buscemi, Mr. Pink, is in a couple of great movies, "Pulp Fiction", along with Tim Roth, Mr. Orange, as a waiter, and "Fargo", where he is again a bad guy. Michael Madsen, Mr. Blonde, is in another Quentin Tarantino movie, actually two, "Kill Bill Parts 1 & 2". Chris Penn, Eddie, was in the Clint Eastwood movie "Pale Rider". And lastly, Harvey Keitel is in the classic "Taxi Driver" as a pimp named Sport.

    The old guy, Mr Blue, was actually played by a former armed robber, which is why he doesn't appear much, because he wasn't allowed to carry even a prop gun.
    Also when the cop says "I have a family" during the torture scene, that line wasn't scripted.
    You can hear Mr Blonde saying "Oh no no no" off screen. That was Michael Madsen's reaction to the line, as he'd just become a dad and it was a bit too much for him.

    9:40 -- RE: *Is He From Free Willy?* ; A: *YES,* well done. Michael Madsen landed relatively few large film roles when he pursued his career in Hollywood. See also "Species" (1995). *But* lucky for him, Tarantino never forgets a good character actor, either, so he infrequently appears in other Tarantino films after 2005.
    Harvey Keitel also got a lot of work with Tarantino after this film, but he was certainly a large part of why it was a success, and he was one of its producers.

    There's a couple of deleted scenes and in one of them you find out that Mr. White's real name is Lawrence Dimmick and he's *not* a good guy. He's old school, so there's an older fashioned sense of honor, but that doesn't make him a crook with a heart of gold.
    Mr. Blue was the old guy with the cigar at the diner table who said he liked "Borderline" by Madonna. His real name was Eddie Bunker and he was a real criminal for decades before turning to writing and acting. He was a consultant on the film as well and he told Tarantino that he never worked a job with that many guys on a crew because it always led to trouble.
    The shootout at the end is confusing because there was a squib malfunction. They didn't have time to reshoot it so people think Mr. Pink must have shot one of them but he didn't. They had to leave in the mistake.
    Mr. Blonde's blade is called a "straight razor." And there was no Lee Marvin hate; they talked about how much they liked him.
