Quentin Tarantino is an award-winning American film director, screenwriter and actor. He is known for his stylish 1 and violent movies. He rose to fame in the early 1990s for his unique directing method that relied heavily on dialogue. His screenplays are usually full of unforgettable lines and scenes. He has become a cult 2 director around the world while achieving superstar status.


Tarantino was born in Tennessee in 1963. He dropped out of high school when he was 15 to learn acting 3. He got a job in a video rental 4 store and spent all day watching and analyzing 5 films. He had long discussions about them with customers. For Tarantino, this proved to be an education in directing that he would bring to his own moviemaking.


Tarantino met a movie producer at a Hollywood party who encouraged him to write a screenplay. In January 1992 ‘Reservoir Dogs’ came out and Tarantino instantly became a cult legend. He then wrote the screenplays for the box-office hits ‘True Romance’ and ‘Natural Born Killers’. In 1994, Tarantino made his classic ‘Pulp Fiction’ and won the Palme d'Or at Cannes.


Tarantino made a few more films before writing and directing the ‘Kill Bill’ movies. These films combined the movie styles of Chinese martial 6 arts, Japanese drama, spaghetti westerns and Italian horror. They confirmed him as one of Hollywood’s elite 7 directors. Tarantino once said: "When people ask me if I went to film school I tell them, ‘No, I went to films.’”
