To me, torture would be watching sports on television. - Quentin Tarantino

I write movies about mavericks, about people who break rules, and I don't like movies about people who are pulverised for being mavericks.

Watch the movie closely, and you’ll see how personal it is. Here’s a film in which cinema brings down the Nazi regime, metaphorically and literally. What could possibly be better than that? In this story, cinema changes the world, and I fucking love that idea!

Sure, Kill Bill's a violent movie. But it's a Tarantino movie. You don't go to see Metallica and ask the fuckers to turn the music down.
