Quentin Tarantino is the quintessential maverick of Hollywood. The quirky genius has carved a niche for himself with his unique brand of writing and storytelling that has won him critical and commercial acclaim. With the seamless blending of genres coupled with the ability to incorporate heavy dialogue without compromising on entertainment, Tarantino has proved that there is no one like him in the industry.
TheDjango Unchainedfilmmaker’s style also stands out for his clever use of subtext that allows audiences to make their own assumptions about a character or a situation. While unexplained and open-ended questions may not be the method that many directors adopt in their films, Tarantino was clear that this aspect of his craft was what made his movies interesting and worthwhile for viewers.

This Aspect Of Quentin Tarantino’s Direction Is Integral To His Appeal
There’s no one quite likeQuentin Tarantinoin Hollywood. Whether it is the style of filmmaking, the screenplay, or the nuances of the characters, the Oscar winner has proved that going off the beaten path is a risk well worth taking. While there are things that make him unique as a filmmaker, his choice to keep audiences guessing through small unexplained details is something that adds more intrigue to his movies.
For instance, inInglorious Basterds,Brad Pitt’scharacter Aldo Raine is seen to have a rope burn scar around his neck, the reason for which is never addressed throughout the film. Similarly, inPulp Fiction, John Travolta’s protagonist opens a suitcase and reacts to the contents which are never revealed to the audience.
According to Tarantino, these touches were pivotal to viewers coming up with their own theories about what transpired in those moments. Speaking in a deep-dive interview aboutInglorious Basterdswith Charlie Rose (viaYouTube), theKill Billfilmmaker explained why this aspect of his filmmaking was important for audiences to take in.
“Now if I tell you at this table what it is, you will throw that away, and I don’t want you to throw that away”
These finer details of direction and storytelling further solidified Tarantino’s position as one of Hollywood’s most influential artists who has inspired a generation of viewers to watch films with a different eye.

Having been pretty tight-lipped about the project till date, Tarantino recently revealed significant details about the film in an interview withDeadline. Speaking of the real-life character who wrote reviews for p**n magazines, the filmmaker said,
“He wrote about mainstream movies and he was the second-string critic. I think he was a very good critic. He was as cynical as hell. His reviews were a cross between early Howard Stern and what Travis Bickle [Robert DeNiro’s character in Taxi Driver] might be if he were a film critic.”
Tarantino also elaborated on his personal connection to the story when he revealed that he once held a job that involved arranging p**n magazines into a vending machine as a teenager. With the maverick director’s unique style of filmmaking and his affinity for telling memorable stories,The Movie Criticalready looks to be a fitting swansong for Tarantino.
