  • In my opinion, he is the single greatest filmmaker of all time. He's so eccentric and interesting. You can really see his personality in his movies

  • The thing i hate about his films is that fact that Tarantino wants you to know you are watching the film.

    You never get lost in the story. Your just looking at a film set or listening to antiquated film music

  • @sullenboy1o3o yeah that is what we call breaking the fourth wall and he probably got that from the French New Wave of which he gets a loth of inspiration.

  • Thanks for that Bafta fascinating!... and thanks in advance for all the awards i will be winning in the future! :D

  • me and my friend have been talking about that Tarantino should get Mel Gibson in one of his movies. I mean he is known to take actors that are sort of out of there prime and show them in new light

  • Quentin Tarintino's first film was called "My Best Friend's Birthday". The film print was destoyed in a lab during editing.

    How ironic is it that later in his career, he made "Inglorious Basterds", where they burn down the theatre by burning film??

  • @deadwood753100 His first film is 1983 "Love Birds in Bondage." 

  • best director,scriptwriter,producer and brilliant actor. all round legend.

  • Deathprof

  • I love QT but i'm fed up of every crime movie being called 'Tarantino-esque' or critics claiming that they are influenced by Tarantino. 'Hana-Bi'- a fantastic japanese film- was the polar opposite of Tarantino (it is short, the violence is graphic but not stylish, and the lead character says about three lines in the entire 95 minute running) and yet the dumbass critics STILL claim it to be influenced by Tarantino. The man is great, but his reputation and influence really does preceed him.

  • Who did that remix of Map of the Problematique they play at the start (original by Muse)?

  • @markoos88 Yeah I'd like to know that too!

  • I hate it when people mention NBK, and not True Romance.

  • @LSJShez True Romance is fantastic! one of his, if not his best fucking script!

  • why is there no mention of From Dusk Till Dawn??

  • @BloodBath808 its a bad film thats why

  • Tarantino's movies are not about violence, they're about violent people. The main subject isn't the violence itself, but the violent instinct within each character.

  • he's just a normal guy who does what he loves

  • They forgot Death Proof. Fail.

  • @Neuroneos Well ,that's because Deathproof wasn't all that good. The fact that it was QT's contribution to the Grindhouse films is the low point of his career, in my opinion. Planet Terror really set the bar for what Grindhouse meant, but QT just didn't quite get it right.

  • @Brejik74 I found Death Proof really good, but it's not the point.

  • I just don't understand it anymore. Quentin can say shit but not fuck? Why the fuck not?

  • ''So what research were you doing in amsterdam?''

    HAHA that chick is very funny, i bet tarantino roled a joint or two when he was there, even if it was just that one time

  • is the chair small enough?

  • What about "Death Proof"? Anyway, thanks for sharing :)

  • I'm a screenwriter and I wish I could write like this man. I will give it my all, but I doubt I'll ever have his finesse.

  • I'm just watching it right now, and why is there no mention of True Romance before Natural Born Killers?

  • Django Unchained will be amazing if tarantino is directing it

  • @youngfilmmaker100 He's the director & writer.

  • yes i know

  • @youngfilmmaker100 he isnt just directing it he fucking wrote it

  • Yes i know 

  • @youngfilmmaker100  Did you know that he wrote it too? ;)

  • What a GREAT interview. Love QT - one of the most HONEST interviewees you will see. Oh and how that reserved, charming, dignified English rose of an interviewer helped to make it all that more gratifying.

  • I am the public, I am going to do my request. Q. T. I want you to do the remake of the Godfather and a movie about.... Jesus Crist. after Django? After Kill Bill part III? Thanks in advance.

  • @ismaeeeeeeel

    hell no i love quintin tarantino but i also love the godfather and the godfather is one of the best movies ever made and it should never be touched.

  • Quentin Tarantino is fucking annoying.

  • @JacobCain86 Then why are you here, Douchebag?

  • @627dk LOL, I get called Douchebag on a vid of The biggest Douchebag by a person with the 5 most Douchebag videos i have ever seen. but to answer your question... i was sent here.

  • @videoclerks I was being silly by saying he hates Sci-Fi movie fans but I think that he doesn't have a single bit of interest in creating a Sci-Fi homage film anytime soon. After Django he's probably going to make a more direct comedy movie.

  • Cannot wait for Django, its gonna be fucking epic

  • True Romance is a drama/romance.

    Natural Born Killers is a thriller/satire.

    Reservoir Dogs is a crime film.

    Pulp Fiction is a Noir/Black Comedy/Crime film.

    Jackie Brown is a crime/biography.

    Kill Bill is Kung-Fu/Revenge.

    Death Proof is a thriller/horror.

    Inglorious Basterds is a war movie.

    Django Unchained is a spaghetti western.

    Tarantino hates Sci-fi movie fans.

  • @knottsknocks i strongly doubt that he hates sci-fi movie fans since his fav film of 90 was the Star Trek reboot.

  • @knottsknocks the most diverse director ever. oh and the best director ever. he's been my hero since i was 8. i want to do what he does one day. im sitting in a college dorm and im thinking of getting the fuck out of here and becoming what he became. wtf am i doing here!

  • @IWantDaveKast i feel the same way dude..

  • Wow those chairs haha

  • 4:40 - Drug on, man!!!

  • Django is going to be a classic. It almost doesn't really even need to be said.

  • @tamerswan :)

  • @tamerswan What?! :P Don't you agree? Haha, I just don't like it when some people act like idiots when it comes to talking publicly about anything sexual.

  • @tamerswan Yep.

  • @tamerswan Holy crap my spelling was bad a year ago.

    And yeah, he isn't a racist at all.

  • @tamerswan i wish i could give you part for a Quentin Tarantino movie! That would mean i was working close to him lol

  • What about Death Proof??? His segment in Four Rooms??? From Dusk Till Dawn???True Romance??? Should have been an hour long :(

  • Best ever interview with Tarantino!

  • What's with with this audience? They seem so uninvolved.

  • greatest man in cinema

  • Oh, pussy dead, aye?

  • Why is he always dressed like Johnny Cash?

  • @krystlerita Why not, Cash Is the man.

  • @TheJackssuprise Oh no one's denying that lol

  • @krystlerita Thats an awsome thing :)

  • @krystlerita the real question is why was Johnny Cash always dressed like Quentin Tarantino?

  • I have a friend who is in the British Army (I think) and his persona is like Quentin's, but lacks a real knowledge of film which I have.

  • Quentin Tarantino is king shit!

  • "fuck hollywood practice, you dont do that to me"

    he sounds petulant but goddamn that kind of integrity deserves some real respect.

  • Django Unchained, the next QT movie!

  • @trilseka It will be good. I wish he would just step out of his comfort zone and do a movie that seems based in reality. Something like "There will be blood' He's starting to become a one trick pony with the revenge movies. I'll still see it. I just want him to branch out cause I know he can do it.

  • @CobainLennon8094 I've read the script, and it was a page turner. It's a great story. However I have to disagree on yr point about QT's movies not being realistic, on the contrary: Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction & Jackie Brown are his most realistic films. It's true I wouldn't be able to say that for the rest of his work, but yeah Quentin could broader his horizon on film making a bit more, it seems he's still making movies for himself.

  • @trilseka Yeah I'll agree with that. Jackie Brown was a Great film. I tried to find the new script online. I couldn't get more then a few pages. His camp did a good job getting it scrubbed from the internet. He said he's doing Kill Bill 3 after that. Yeah I guess that maybe that's just him. He'll just got down as more Alfred Hitchcock then Martin Scorsese. Nothing wrong with that.

  • @trilseka im excited!!!!!

  • He gesticulates like a motherfucker.

  • Wow. I don't know what he was so nervous about. And he obviously is. He is one of the greatest storytellers/directors of all time (as history will eventually acknowledge). I was squirming in my seat watching him squirm in his seat.

    Quentin - relax! You are one of the all time greats...go make some more!

  • Quentin got fu%$in ROBBED at the 2010 Oscars...I mean grand larceny, grand theft auto, bonny n clyde robbing banks style GROTESQUE larceny! Hurt Locker ain´t a 10th the movie Basterds is.

  • I want Tarantino to do another natural born killers, his version!

    

  • @johann2779 He's making a western! :)

  • @TheDM75 Ok thats cool, no matter what he does though turns out great, im a big fan! my dream is to make a dbz movie kill bill style and have him help me out with it hehehe

  • @johann2779 lol yeah he's a genius, i hope i can work with people like him in the future, directing movies :)

  • No Death Proof? :/

  • 5:01 he sounds British

  • The crowd and the interviewer do not seem very interested in him. Is QT popular in Britain? Admittedly he is somewhat talky and arrogant but I always kind of liked his strange personality.

  • @IronManOfficialguy yeah he's popular, but yeah i agree, the interviewer didn't seem interested and slightly stuck up.

  • @IronManOfficialguy Yeah, the interviewer is way too serious...

  • QT is just like me.

    I couldn't pay attention in school.

    I was bored because they weren't discussing things i was interested in.

    And i'm addicted to films.

    I had hundreds of DVD's, i buy new ones every other day.

    The biggest difference is i haven't made a film like Reservoir Dogs or Pulp Fiction (my 2 fave films XD)

  • @TheHulkgaz Make a movie, man. I'd watch it.

  • @TheHulkgaz Same for me. It's always the ones who fuck up in school, huh? :P

  • playing the audience like a piano- alfred hitchcock

  • i wish hed talk about getting de niro for jackie brown

  • 29:30

    Peter Jackson in the middle of the shot anyone?

  • If he loves violence so much... Why the peace sign?

  • @iryan5000

    He likes aesthetic violence, as do most people. Real life violence is another story altogether.

  • @iryan5000 Violence in films is different than violence in real life.

  • @A2thedouble so smart

  • @All who are asking for Death Proof, Quentin said publicly (in 2009 Oscar director roundtable I think) that Death Proof is his biggest and only flop in the carrier, that he even considered it as a carrier ender. So if this is tribute to Tarantino, why would they mention his downside? I mean, when we discuss Rocky, noone talks about fifth one :D

  • Why does she pucker and stiffen up when she says "porn films"?! It's the best kind of film!

  • Lol Quentin is so fucking massive looking when seated. He looks about twice as big as everyone on American Idol too, both in terms of heigh and width.

  • 21:10!!! True words!

  • THIS FUCKING BITCH DOS NOT LIKE TARANTINO MOUVIES YOU CAN SEE THAT IN HER EYES....SHES JUST DOING HER FUCKING JOB.... !

  • @epicvlas I completely agree. She is not enjoying herself. Its annoying...

  • @epicvlas

    ...Who cares? What difference could it make?

  • wow, no mention of Death Proof.

  • Worst interviewer ever. She needs to derp herself down.

  • So Death Proof was never made?

  • ummm........Kill Bill spoiler alert?

  • kind of think the host is hot

  • That Chair looks rather uncomfortable.

  • dave fincher and tarantino are my favs. i find all of q's movie to be extraordinarily funny though.

  • @unccarolinabseball Guy Ritchie makes quiet interesting movies.

  • @NikkLJs Guy Ritchie and Quentin Tarantino both make quiet films, except Quentin Tarantino is loud.

  • Comment removed

  • lol that seat is too small for him.

  • 8 people re-wrote quentin's script!

  • My absolute favorite director. He's Awesome!

  • We do Asian marriage service now lushfmlk.info

  • the audience looks bored, I would loved to be in that interview with Tarantino.

  • Lol notice how they skipped Death Proof

  • @reservoirdog666 hahahaha

  • There's this video by Rita Indiana (merengue-techno fusion artist) called, "El Juidero" that REALLY reminds me of something Tarrantino would film. I've been watching it all day, its amazing

  • Much of what they cover I already was familiar with, but he knows how to make it seem like he's never mentioned it before. But even the I.B. criticism stuff was covered a little more in depth with Charlie Rose show.

  • The interviewer looks like such a judgmental bitch.

  • @horrorjunkie92 Agreed

  • He's right about Thomas Edison - one of the reason's he innovated the camera was to show violence: look a Edison's Electrocution of an Elephant - one of the most horrifically violent things ever put on film.

    ...I wonder it QT will every make a violence-free movie? He might, if he makes films past 60, realize that the fetish for violence only goes so far. His purest expression as a filmmaker, and the film which had the most character: 'Jackie Brown'. It was also his least violent work. Hhmm.

  • I dont mean to demean her or her great work but I just wanted to say Francine Stock is just so beautiful. So elegant. Great interview thanks for posting.

  • for somebody who owes his succes on othr people's movies,he very toutchy about people rewriting his shit

  • fuck...he's so high on cocaine...

  • @idaxkalnyhta I don't think so. That's just him. He's a twitchy kinda guy.

  • @idaxkalnyhta Nah, he just had to "powder his nose"

  • @Ichiboy900 Pulp Fiction!!

  • Prett amazing that he only directed 5 films at the time of this award. In my opinion, Pulp Fiction sants head and shoulders above his other films, but he has yet to make a bad film. (From Dusk till Dawn was pretty terrible but he only wrote and acted in it)

  • Tonya Harding(ice skate Olympian thugster) is dating Mr. T

  • i love tarantino !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @epicvlas luv his energy and passion for film

  • Quentin Tarantino.. it would be cool if you cast..  Joey Wang ( A Chinese Ghost Story 1-2-3) in one of your upcoming Projects !

  • great great director!

  • As usual with QT an interesting chat but sadly nothing much i havn't already heard, although i was pleased to hear that Quentin forgave Oliver, i personally think Olivers "NBK" is one of the best films of the nineties & as a director had every right to do what he did with Quentins script. on the true romance commentary Quentin is heard to say ....."Tony scott did what any good director should do, he made the film he wanted to make"!!! even after Tony changed two huge things in the movie.

  • @mackychloe "but sadly nothing much i havn't already heard" Nobody cares.

  • @MsMarc1234 Boo-Fuckin-Hoo.

  • greatest dialogue writer of all time 

  • amazing how QT can rewrite the events that end WW 2 and still entertain us all!

  • They show Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown on BET pretty frequently...so racist? Probably not....Spike was just miffed that Quentin had Jackson spew the word nigger more than Keanu says the word dude in Excellent Adventure...probably just sour grapes over artistic cred....Spike does not have the black cinematic experience cornered, so he just felt(feels?) threatened.

  • Somebody said whiteface? John Hughs had to have had his finger on the white pulse...also Linklater touched on them in the hippie era and Spielberg portrayed white suberbia perfectly...also Sam Mendes reformulated white culture in his movies too.

  • She missed one very important question.

    "So, what's next?"

  • how ironic, Reservoir Dogs was banned in the UK for a while

  • @Colt2571 really?? how odd...why?

  • @Sochilinda the UK bans movies they dont like...they thought it was too violent.

  • @Colt2571 how ridiculous! reservoir dogs is one of his least violets movies, the only violent part it's the ear one, but besides that it's nothing to banned. it's a wonderful amazing smart movie.

  • @Colt2571 WTF? Reservoir Dogs was a major hit in the UK! It made more money in the UK than it did in the US. And the US is far worse when it come to banning films. Last year they banned "I LOVE YOU PHILLIP MORRIS" (starring jim carrey) because of its gay content.

  • @paintballing489 WTF are you talking about? why would we ban I LOVE YOU PHILLIP MORRIS for gay content? you're talking about the country that gave the world BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN

  • @bigearedbunny US Films can contain any subject and recieve a widespread release if the distributors here the words "oscar buzz". But the reality is they wern't prepared to gamble on a comedy. Thats why.

  • @Sochilinda

    The cinema exhibition wasn't banned. The video release was delayed for a couple of years though, because of a change in the political mood following a children-on-child killing, when arguments were being raised about the influence of violent films.

  • @Colt2571

    Mmm, yes and no.

    The film was classified 18 without cuts, on schedule for the cinema release in 1992 and it played just fine - little bit of the usual booing and hissing from the conservative press but nothing special.

    The problem was when it came to the video submission in 1993. The infamous Jamie Bulger case turned everything on its head, causing an extra sensitivity to violent films at this time, and so it was delayed pending a change in legislation for video works, until 1995.

  • awesome!!! thanks for posting....

  • i like this interview. who's the cute english chick?

  • what is the name of the song in the beginning?

  • oooooh that's-a-bingoooo

  • Comment removed

  • @flandersfails I concur!

  • i agree, why is Death Proof always over looked i loved that movie so much, they even show a clip from it in the opening part, and it would have been so interesting to hear Quentin describe what it was like getting the whole Grindhouse idea into fruition

  • I have always loved this guy's enthusiasm and it shows in his films. What a wonderful life he has led. Yes, I am a great-grandmother and I love his films. They often echo his exposure to the classics and my generation grew up when going to the movies was the only game in town!

  • Where's Death Proof?

  • What's up with forgetting about death proof? I know it didn't make much money but I still loved it.

  • @MsyticDragon fuck death proof in the ass, it is a fucking disgrace that a genius like tarantino made that.

  • @malows1234 you must be stupid. tarantino does exploitation film, and death proof is a pure exploitation film and, cinematically, one of the greatest exploitation films ever made.

  • @malows1234 I hope you realize that the point of the movie was to be campy and silly. Why do you think it was released under the title of "Grindhouse."? Grindhouses were theaters in the 70s that played low budget campy horror movies and porn and things like that. The whole point of Planet Terror/Deathproof was to be completely ridiculous and cheezy as a homage to Grindhouse films. And it did a great job at that imo.

  • @MsyticDragon He didt actully write that one i thought i thought he just actully helped with it?

  • @MsyticDragon It's considered his only flop.

    

  • Geez what a great interview. Quentin is always interesting but this lady was great!

  • Enjoyed the programme - however, no mention of True Romance!? Considering QTs body of work and the decent job Tony Scott made of the movie, it would have been interesting to hear QT's feelings about it.

  • Great interview. Tarantino is eccentric and very interesting.

    By the way, if the BBC were hell-bent on giving the Film 2010 gig to a woman, they should have offered it to Francine Stock. Intelligent, attractive, has cinematic knowledge, good interview and presenting skills.....she would have been great.

  • Look how the interviewer raises her eyebrows at 5:01, when Q talks about his very first movie.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • One of my favourite directors! His film dialogue pwn all.

  • @UsedPanties OWN all... not "pwn" :-/

  • hmm i think most of you are taking this racsism thing a bit too far.

     i don't think QT is a racesist
