I just grew up watching a lot of movies. Im attracted to this genre and that genre, this type of story, and that type of story. As I watch movies I make some version of it in my head that isnt quite what Im seeing – taking the things I like and mixing them with stuff Ive never seen before. – Quentin Tarantino
Its very important that every movie I do makes money because I want the people that had the faith in me to get their money back. – Quentin Tarantino
I loved history because to me, history was like watching a movie. – Quentin Tarantino
I like it when somebody tells me a story, and I actually really feel that thats becoming like a lost art in American cinema. – Quentin Tarantino
I often begin movies with music in my head its a very important dimension to me. Not just the music itself, but how to use music in film: when and how and subtlety. I dont like to be too sweet in my stories, and I like the abrasive clang, the contrasting of sounds and cultures. – Mira Nair
