Wow...tough question because I don't want to spoil anything or give people any ideas before going to see it.
I'll say different. It's more personal and heartfelt than anything he's ever done, IMO. With that said, there are still plenty of easter eggs, excellent cameos and typical QT obsessions that are everywhere in the film. If you're a huge QT fan, I think you'll LOVE this movie. I wasn't alive during this time period, but I really FELT like I was in 1969 LA. |

I think my fave movies of his are Inglorious Basterds, Jackie Brown and Kill Bill. But really I like them all. |

I've been teaching screenwriting in Chicago all summer, and was kind of nervous about heading back to LA. What if I'd fallen out of love with it? Watched this movie in 70mm at the Music Box, and I couldn't be more excited to go home. Lots and lots and lots of people have tried to make a movie about the movies. There is always a layer of artifice to it that you cannot escape. Not with this one. It's just everything there is to love about Hollywood. Not Los Angeles - Hollywood. LA is a city. Hollywood is a state of being. Thankfully, the other film faculty here is a bunch of crazy smart European and Lebanese filmmakers from Columbia University, so having a conversation about movies is like talking food with a Michelin star chef. Last night, one of the directing faculty and I were having drinks, he looks at me and says "The more time I spend away from that movie..." and I finish his sentence: The more you love it. Yep. I have to see it a couple more times to know what I think. Right now, I suspect it is Tarantino's opus. I'm not sure. Have to think about it. But I don't need time to know how I feel: I ****ing LOVE it. |
