Quentin Tarantino: Interviews by Gerald Peary
One of the most popular, recognizable, and imitated of all filmmakers. Quentin Tarantino: Interviews, revised and updated with twelve new interviews, is a joy to read cover to cover because its subject has so much interesting and provocative to say about his own movies and about cinema in general, and also about his unusual life.
