Quentin Tarantino Reveals One Thing He's Never Going To Show In His Movies
Despite the sheer amount of violence in his movies, there is one line he doesn't cross.
Quentin Tarantino is a movie buff. A man who, by his own admission, learned everything he knows from watching movies.
He can be called an ordinary viewer who, thanks to the favor of fate, managed not only to make a career for himself, but also to become famous all over the world.
He films primarily for himself, but also makes movies for a wide audience, fulfilling his childhood dreams. Over the years, Tarantino has developed his own unique style that many try to imitate.
Tarantino's movies have been criticized for excessive violence for many years, but it has long since become his trademark.
The director does not enjoy it, contrary to the opinion of some, but uses it to better reveal the characters and show what they are capable of.
However, as the director himself has admitted, when it comes to violence, there is a line that he has never crossed.
Tarantino has never tortured or killed animals in his movies (with very few exceptions). The famous director will not do so in his future projects, despite the mass of bloody and gruesome scenes with the participation of humans.
According to Tarantino, the death of animals on the screen always looks more believable than the killing of people.
Besides, many viewers are often interested in whether this or that director really killed an animal in his movie.
Quentin tries to make sure that the audience does not have such questions when watching his movies: "I have a big thing about killing animals in movies. That's a bridge I can't cross. Insects too."
Violence has become one of Quentin Tarantino's trademarks, and it's unlikely he'll leave it out of his tenth (and presumably last) movie.
Cinema is a way for viewers to explore different situations and fears in a safe environment, which is what happens with all the graphic and violent scenes in Tarantino's movies. Although it is clear that some find them simply shocking.
Finally, Tarantino tried to explain that there is a separation between real life and what is done in the movies, and that what is shown in the latter does not necessarily reflect the views and ideas of the director in real life.
