In the space of just six movies, albeit spanning sixteen years Quentin Tarantino has become one of the most popular and controversial directors.
Born in Knoxville Tarantino worked in a video rental store, after studying acting at the Boston Theatre Company, and spent all his days discussing movies with his customers rather than making them.
Before making a film Tarantino sold the script True Romance it went onto be released in 1993 and starred Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette.
His debut movie came in 1992 after he penned the script for Reservoir Dogs which opened at the Sundance Film Festival.
Mastermind Joe Cabot (Lawrence Tierney) assembles a crew of top-notch criminals to pull off a jewellery store heist.
As the film opens it becomes immediately clear that the plan backfired, forcing the survivors, who have gathered at an abandoned warehouse, to figure out if one of them is, in fact, a police informer.
The crew, Mr. White (Harvey Keitel), an aged veteran; Mr. Orange (Tim Roth), a wounded newcomer; Mr. Blonde (Michael Madsen), a psychopathic parolee; Mr. Pink (Steve Buscemi), a bickering weasel; and Nice Guy Eddie (Chris Penn), Joe's son--begin to unravel as the pressure becomes too much for them to handle. When Joe arrives, the truth becomes clear in a vicious Mexican standoff.
