Towards Self-entertainment

At this time, Quentin is no longer the epiphany of the Reservoir Dogs, nor is he the leader of the pulp novel, nor is it the Jiang Lang after Jack Brown. He has been entertaining himself since Killing Bill, but it seems less natural and less distracting than this one.
At this time, Quentin is Quentin who is enjoying the movie. In fact, he has always been like this, but now he has truly become himself, a director with skilled film skills and a unique style, shooting his favorite movies. This is indeed true It's a very enjoyable thing.
Of course, Quentin's movies have always had gimmicks, but they're not gimmicks that deceive people, but gimmicks with genuine value or even great value. Paying tribute to B-grade films is undoubtedly one of the gimmicks this time, because the violence has escalated It is inevitable to label it, but what attracted me the most after watching the film was the crazy car chase. At that time, I felt it was too strong. Whoever said that the movie is a lie, no matter how you look at this part, you can’t fake it, let’s say it’s fake. Not Quentin's style either. Later, I bought a Zhang D9 and watched the tidbits. It turned out that Quentin was also the most proud of it. He invited several top American masters to help out. The car chase scene was absolutely thrilling and exciting.
If you can work in Quentin's team once, it will definitely be a life in vain!

    Quentin's words are not very good in this B-level film. The most important thing is that the long-shot restaurant chatter content is very boring, and it is not at the same level as the humorous dialogue in [Pulp Fiction]. Various close-ups of the feet (such as the opening cab) are definitely a benefit of foot fetish. The three slow-motion playbacks of the first car murder from different perspectives are amazing, and the end of the murderous mania is very addictive. ps: Pi Zi Kun pays tribute to "Break and Bone" (7.5/10)

    I don't like this rhythm.

Death Proof quotes

  • Jungle Julia: Sorry, it was a one-time only offer and she did it earlier this evening at Anton's.

    Stuntman Mike: No, she didn't.

    Arlene: How do you know?

    Stuntman Mike: I'm good that way. And you look a little touchéd.

    Arlene: What's touchéd?

    Stuntman Mike: Wounded, slightly.

    Arlene: Why should I be wounded?

    Stuntman Mike: Because you expected guys to be pestering you all night, but from your look I can tell nobody pestered you at all. That kind of hurt your feelings a little bit, didn't it? There are few things as fetching as a bruised ego on a beautiful angel.

    Arlene: [Arlene smiles] Hmm.

    Stuntman Mike: [slowly] So, how about that lap dance?

    Arlene: I think I'm going to have to give you a rain check.

    Stuntman Mike: Well, since you'll be leaving in the next couple of days, that rain check will be worthless. But that's okay. I understand if I make you uncomfortable. You're still a nice girl, and I still like you. But I must warn you of something -- you know how people say...

    Stuntman Mike: [does an exaggerated Kurt Russell voice-impression] You're okay in my book, or In my book, that's no good?

    Stuntman Mike: [goes back to his regular voice] Well, I actually HAVE a book.

    Stuntman Mike: [he pulls out a little book from his back pocket] And everybody I ever meet goes in this book. And, now I've met you, YOU'RE going in the book! Except, I'm afraid I must file you... under... chicken shit.

    [shows the open book to her]

    Arlene: [grabbing the book from him] And what if I did it?

    Stuntman Mike: Well, I definitely couldn't file you under chicken shit then, now could I?

    Arlene: What's your name again?

    Stuntman Mike: [softly] Stuntman Mike.

    Arlene: Well, Stuntman Mike, I'm Butterfly. My friend Jungle Julia over here says that jukebox inside is pretty impressive.

    Stuntman Mike: Yeah, it is.

    Arlene: Yeah.

    Arlene: [she hands Stuntman Mike his book back] Why don't you get ready for your lapdance?

  • Jasper: Who's Kim? The colored girl?

    Abernathy: [pauses for a second] Yes. Kim would be the girl of color.
