GOSSIP:	Ranked #8 in Empire (UK) magazine's The Greatest directors ever! (2005) Hates the idea of being a professional film maker, because he regards it as a hobby and not a job. (2007) Slammed James Bond producers for failing to contact him following his request to direct forthcoming 007 movie CASINO ROYALE, because the remake had been his idea. (January 2006) His main characters often drive cars from Chevrolet, such as Jules' 1974 Nova and Vincent's 1960s Malibu. He often frames characters with doorways and shows them opening and closing doors. Much of the violence and minor character dialogue is offscreen in his films. Briefcases and suitcases often play an important role in his movies: PULP FICTION (1994), RESERVOIR DOGS (1992), JACKIE BROWN (1997), TRUE ROMANCE (1993), and KILL BILL: VOL. 2 (2004). Often makes references to cult movies and television. Frequently works with Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Uma Thurman, and Samuel L. Jackson. His films usually have a shot from inside a car trunk. His lead characters usually drive General Motors vehicles, particularly Chevrolet and Cadillac. He always has a Dutch element in his films: The opening tune, Little Green Bag, in RESERVOIR DOGS (1992) was performed by George Baker and written by Jan Gerbrand Visser and Benjamino Bouwens who are all Dutch. The character Freddy Newandyke, played by Tim Roth is a direct translation to a typical Dutch last name, Nieuwendijk. The code name of Tim Roth is Mr. Orange, the royal color of Holland, and the last name of the royal family. The Amsterdam conversation in PulpFiction, Vincent Vega smokes from a Dutch tobacco shag (Drum), the mentioning of Rutger Hauer in JACKIE BROWN (1997), the bride's name is Beatrix, the name of the Royal Dutch Queen. Frequently features the Mexican Standoff: All his movies (including True Romance (1993), which he only wrote and did not direct) feature a scene in which three or more characters are pointing guns at each other at the same time. Often uses an unconventional storytelling device in his films, such as retrospect (RESERVOIR DOGS (1992)), non-linear (PULP FICTION (1994)), or chapter format (Kill Bill: Vol.1 (2003)). His films will often include one long, unbroken take where a character is followed around somewhere. Often casts comedians in small roles: 'Stephen Wright' as the DJ in RESERVOIR DOGS (1992), Kathy Griffin as an accident witness and Julia Sweeney as the junkyard guy's daughter in PULP FICTION (1994) , 'Chris Tucker' as Beaumont in JACKIE BROWN (1997). Often Widely imitated quick cuts of character's hands performing actions in extreme closeup, a technique reminiscent of Brian De Palma. MORE QUENTIN TARANTINO TRIVIA
