"I loved history because to me, history was like watching a movie." ― Quentin Tarantino Topic(s): History More From Quentin Tarantino "I’m a big collector of vinyl – I have a record room in my house – and I’ve always had a huge soundtrack album collection. So what I do, as I’m writing a movie, is go through all those songs, trying to find good songs for fights, or good pieces of music to layer into the film." "I’m not a Hollywood basher because enough good movies come out of the Hollywood system every year to justify its existence, without any apologies." "It’s 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." More In History "The worst mistake of first contact, made throughout history by individuals on both sides of every new encounter, has been the unfortunate habit of making assumptions. It often proved fatal."― David Brin "It’s a very good historical book about history."― Dan Quayle "What you have now is a Hollywood that is pure poison. Hollywood was a central place in the history of art in the 20th century: it was human idealism preserved. And then, like any great place, it collapsed, and it collapsed into the most awful machinery in the world."― Emir Kusturica
