Non-Fiction Biography

In 1992 Tarantino burst onto the scene with Reservoir Dogs and created a brand of hip-talking, hypnotically shot, ultra violent US indie cinema that re-invigorated mainstream American film and spawned many imitators. Now take a detailed look at those pictures Tarantino has directed, those scripts of his made into films by other directors – including True Romance and the controversial, and heavily re-written Natural Born Killers – along with his other work, including both his episode of NBC’s ER and his projects as an actor, producer and presenter. Explore the significance of the director’s use of favourite actors, anachronisms, borrowed music and reference points and how they relate to recurring themes such as heritage, personal responsibility and redemption.
