      <![CDATA[Tarantino did an interview with Charlie Rose where he says that he considers himself more of a writer than a filmmaker. He also reveals (I didn't know, at least) that he wrote Kill Bill as a book first, and then adapted it to the movie, which I thought was interesting.

      <![CDATA[Matt, <br>
<br>
"Tarantino doesn’t just explore language’s capacity to reveal and conceal motives and personality, he shows how people pick words and phrases (consciously or subconsciously) in order to define themselves and others, and describe the reality they inhabit (or would like to inhabit). Even low-key and seemingly unimportant exchanges are as carefully choreographed as boxing matches.

      <![CDATA[Quentin's dialogue has the ability to turn an evil character into a good one. His words create doubt about the morality of good characters by showing faults in both the protagonist and antagonist, even secondary characters with what seems like a throwaway line.

      <![CDATA[In Jackie Brown, after Samuel L. Jackson's character Ordell Robie kills his buddy Louis (Robert De Niro), he says: "What the hell happened to you man? Your ass used to be beautiful."<br>
<br>
I consider it one of the great lines in cinema.

      <![CDATA[Paul, based on Avary's own writing in his movies, I'm not sure how much dilution he's doing. I can't say for sure, of course, but I don't get the impression Tarantino was dictating to Avary who then filtered the language through his own grounding sensibilities.

      <![CDATA[If the credits below the screen toggled between "Script by Avary/Tarantino" and "Scr/Dir Tarantino", it might reflect a certain difference in quality between the heightened realism of Reservoir Dogs/Pulp Fiction and the Tarantino-world language of the other movies. I personally prefer QT diluted by the addition of another writer's ear.

      <![CDATA[In Jackie Brown, the scene in which Ordell Robbie convinces a reluctant  Beaumount Livingston to get into a small, dark, and dirty trunk and act as back-up with the end reward being dinner at Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles -- is CLASSIC! Jackie Brown gets over looked A LOT, but Tarantino uses Ordell's power of pervasive dialogue as action throughout the entire film.
