“Because I've made a film with such an amazing director as Tarantino, I'm much more conscious of working with good directors from now on, so that's what's important to me.

“I discovered very soon, especially for movies, because I started in theater, that every director has his own universe. You have to be free enough to try to understand what he wants from you. Especially when that director has a tremendous personality. And I'm talking about people like Pedro Almodovar and Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino and Woody Allen. And you have to adapt. If you don't adapt to them, you are off the thing.” PeopleIfsWantTryingEnoughUniverseTalkingPersonalityDirectorsTheaterWoodyQuentinTarantinoAlmodovar Author:Antonio Banderas
“The Nazis, for him, are merely available movie tropes--articulate monsters with a talent for sadism. By making the Americans cruel, too, he escapes the customary division of good and evil along national lines, but he escapes any sense of moral accountability as well. In a Tarantino war, everyone commits atrocities. Like all the director's work after 'Jackie Brown,' the movie is pure sensation. It's disconnected from feeling, and an eerie blankness--it's too shallow to be called nihilism--undermines even the best scenes.” WellsWarFeelingsEvilLinesMoralTalentScenePureDirectorsAvailableMonstersCommitBrownGood And EvilAccountabilityDivisionSensationsNaziShallowNihilismAtrocitiesDisconnectedJackieSadismTarantinoEerieTropesBlanknessJackie Brown Book:Do the Movies Have a Future?

“I’m an actor who’s accustomed to bringing a lot of stuff to the table, and you have to be ready because some of them will be accepted and some of them will be rejected.

“A lot of people love Tarantino’s films because they’re spectacular, they’re beautiful, they’re wonderful. He hires the best group of artists - not only actors, but everyone around: best photographers, best set designers, best production designers, costume designers. A lot of people love his films because they’re bloody, they’re gory, they’re savage. But very few people see that he’s a very political director.” PeopleBeautifulFilmPoliticalArtistActorsWonderfulGroupsDirectorsPhotographerProductionsDesignerBloodySavagesCostumesSpectacularTarantino Author:Demian Bichir
“Just someone trying to shoot in 70mm deserves the nomination, and he[Quentin Tarantino] is shooting interiors, like tight interior shots, for that matter.
