It appears the word "homage" has change its meaning--- Also, that peculiar style of telling a story --dissected in different times (starting with Part 3, then Part 1 then part 5...) was used many years before in an old noir film from the 50's, directed by Stanley Kubrick: "The Killing." Tarantino's talent lays more on reviving "a Frankenstein" than "creating a Frankenstein"

Pulp Fiction was a "homage" to noir novels and films from the 50s and 60s.
Jackie Brown was a "homage" to blaxploitation films of the 70s. Kill Bill was a "homage" to martial arts movies. Inglourious Basterds was a "homage" to an Italian film of the same name. And now this. Jeez, it seems like Tarantino can't come up with anything original. Taking the plot from an old obscure movie doesn't make you a genius. Or maybe he doesn't know the difference.
