Posted By: Mike


Yes, I'll agree that QT has had his hand in a couple of good movies. Trouble is, they're remakes. PULP FICTION is taken pretty directly from VIVRE SA VIS by Jean-Luc Godard RESERVIOR DOGS is equal parts DOG DAY AFTERNOON and BULLET IN THE HEAD. And those are just the ones that Tarintino has directed himself. QT is an excellent dialogue writer. QT can wring great performances out of his actors. BUT, he has not made an original film yet. Only fitting that his current project is an adaptation of Elmore Leonard's RUM PUNCH.
