Awhile and Quentin Tarantino

When I first created this blog, about a week later I got a reply to write for nonsensefilm so I wasn't really being active. I've now returned just to post thoughts, etc. etc.

I actually have an upcoming speech to give on a person of interest. The person I've decided on is none other than Quentin Tarantino. It's been difficult though, the speech has a time limit of 3 minutes. I can talk about Taratino for hours. The man is brilliant, I mean, he just kicks ass. He described Reservoir Dogs  that way and it's just true. He kicks ass. On a higher thinking note and in all seriousness, Quentin's approach to film has been one that has fascinated me for years; ever since I was a 13 year old in Iceland where I saw Kill Bill Vol. 1 for the first time. Of course, at the time I only thought THIS IS AWESOME, but it now goes beyond that.

I've decided that I'll simply touch on biography based shenanigans, then make my way to the real stuff that got me interested in him: his films. The speech shall be fantastic, I haven't screwed up yet. I eventually have to get working on a classics review for Goodfellas. It'll of course be up on nonsensefilm.
