The script for his first movie took him four years to complete: \u003ci\u003eMy Best Friend’s Birthday\u003c\/i\u003e, a seventy-minute film in which he both acted and directed. The script for his second film, \u003ci\u003eReservoir Dogs\u003c\/i\u003e (1992), took him just under four weeks to complete. When it debuted, he was immediately hailed as one of the most exciting new directors in the industry.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eKnown for his highly cinematic visual style, out-of-sequence storytelling, and grandiose violence, Tarantino’s films have provoked both praise and criticism over the course of his career. They’ve also won him a host of awards—including Oscars, Golden Globes, and BAFTA awards—usually for his original screenplays. His oeuvre includes the cult classic \u003ci\u003ePulp Fiction\u003c\/i\u003e, bloody revenge saga \u003ci\u003eKill Bill Vol. 1\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eVol. 2\u003c\/i\u003e, and historical epics \u003ci\u003eInglorious Basterds\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eDjango Unchained\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Hateful Eight\u003c\/i\u003e . This stunning retrospective catalogs each of Quentin Tarantino’s movies in detail, from \u003ci\u003eMy Best Friend’s Birthday\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eThe Hateful Eight\u003c\/i\u003e. The book is a tribute to a unique directing and writing talent, celebrating an uncompromising, passionate director’s enthralling career at the heart of cult filmmaking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781683830986\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Insight Editions","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":40972988711118,"sku":"9781683830986","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/O_e78d6770-4b63-4858-9283-66962b81e29e.jpg?v=1646600648","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781683830986","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
