Quentin Tarantino is one of the most acclaimed and influential filmmakers of our time, known for his distinctive style, genre-bending stories, and memorable characters. But he is also a man who loves Israel, where he has been living for the past three years with his wife, Israeli singer Daniella Pick, and their two children.
Tarantino recently visited a military base in southern Israel to boost the morale of Israeli troops amid the ongoing conflict with Hamas, the terrorist group that launched a devastating attack on Oct. 7 that killed more than 1,400 people and took hundreds of hostages in Gaza. The director of “Pulp Fiction” and “Inglourious Basterds” toured military bases and mingled with soldiers and residents, igniting a social media frenzy of selfies and videos.

Quentin Tarantino spent a lot of time on his 2009 feature Inglourious Basterds. During that period, he decided to live the bachelor’s life, since being in a relationship might’ve sabotaged his war film.

Tarantino wanted to devote much of his focus and time to movie-making. So although the filmmaker had plenty of opportunities to settle down, he felt it was in his work’s best interest to remain single.
“When I’m doing a movie, I’m not doing anything else. It’s all about the movie. I don’t have a wife. I don’t have a kid. Nothing can get in my way,” he once told GQ.

Los Angeles, May 29 (Ians) Director Quentin Tarantino is facing a claim from a strip club manager called NorCal Lowlife he once splashed out $10,000 to lick.
Lowlife – also known as Page Rad – was apparently a senior worker at Hollywood nightspot Crazy Girls, and told the tale about the ‘Pulp Fiction’ director, who is said to have a foot fetish as he often lingers on his leading ladies’ toes in his flicks, on a podcast called ‘Get in the Car’, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
He said when Quentin apparently visited the club, without specifying when, the filmmaker requested a VIP room and the company of the dancer with the “biggest t***” and “biggest ass” there.
Lowlife said he went to a security room and watched the action on CCTV, adding: “He’s sitting down, she’s about to do her little… take her top off. And he gets up, throws her on the f****** seat,...

The Hollywood Reporter broke news on Tuesday night about Quentin Tarantino’s next project. The trade’s sources say that the two-time Oscar winner, who turns 60 later this month, has finished a script and hopes to start shooting this autumn. The title is “The Movie Critic,” it is set in Los Angeles in the late 1970s and has a female lead.
That’s all that’s known for certain (and even this remains unconfirmed by Tarantino), but that didn’t stop many from theorizing. Over the decades, Tarantino has made his affection for critic Pauline Kael known. In the late 1970s, Kael held, for a short time, a position within Paramount Pictures (brought in at Warren Beatty’s suggestion) and that certainly could be the focal point of the project.
Keep in mind, however, that when word first broke about “Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood,” initial chit-chat was that...

Quentin Tarantino is reportedly getting ready to direct his final feature film.
The director has long said that he would retire after his 10th movie and retire by the time he turns 60 (which will be this year).
Citing sources, The Hollywood Reporter revealed that the director has written a script titled The Movie Critic and is preparing to start production this autumn.
The trade publication notes that logline details about the project are being kept top secret, but that the story is “set in late 1970s Los Angeles with a female lead at its centre”.
The Independent has contacted Tarantino’s representatives for confirmation.
THR points out that the subject of the film could well be Pauline Kael, the late New Yorker film critic who magazine from 1968 to 1991.
Tarantino voiced his approbation for Kael in the past and recently published a Kael-inspired book of essays titled Cinema Speculation.

Quentin Tarantino might just be raising a #Gentleminion.
The “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” director has opted to show two-year-old son Leo his first film, and it’s definitely not a fairytale. Tarantino told Empire magazine that Leo’s foray into cinema started with none other than “Despicable Me 2.”
“[My son is] pretty young, so he’s only really seen one movie,” Tarantino explained. “I thought I was hitting a Minions cartoon, and I realize it’s ‘Despicable Me 2.’ And he seemed to be interested in the opening credits, so I go, ‘Okay, I guess we’re watching ‘Despicable Me 2.'”
Tarantino, who recently welcomed a daughter over the Fourth of July weekend with wife Daniella Pick, added that Leo watched “Despicable Me 2” in “small bites” over the course of a week.
“[Leo] gets up and he walks behind the couch, but he’s still watching the TV. We watched it for 20 minutes,...

Quentin Tarantino just welcomed his second child, a baby girl, with wife Daniella Pick over the July 4th holiday weekend. The two had their first child, a son named Leo, in February 2020, and now that the baby is over two years old, it’s time for him to start watching movies with his Oscar-winning father. Cinephiles have wondered what movie Tarantino would show Leo first, given the director’s wealth of movie knowledge (and his love of movie violence), and now they have their answer: “Despicable Me 2.”
“[My son is] pretty young, so he’s only really seen one movie,” Tarantino told Empire magazine. “I thought I was hitting a ‘Minions’ cartoon, and I realize it’s ‘Despicable Me 2.’ And he seemed to be interested in the opening credits, so I go, ‘Okay, I guess we’re watching ‘Despicable Me 2.'”

Quentin Tarantino movies very rarely feature happy families. They barely contain any parental presence at all. One of the most memorable scenes in Pulp Fiction is a flashback. The boxer, Butch, played by Bruce Willis, remembers a pivotal moment from his childhood. The day he met a “special visitor,” named Capt. Koons (Christopher Walken), who interrupted the young boy’s cartoons to fulfill a final, personal mission. The captain had been imprisoned in the same Pow camp in Hanoi where Butch’s father died.
In one of cinema’s great monologues, and helped pave the way to Pulp Fiction grossing $213 million at the box office after it won the Palme d’Or at Cannes. Yet Tarantino did not buy his father a gold watch. And even if the director gets one when he retires after his next film, he probably won’t give that either to his mother Connie Zastoupil.

The end is nigh for Quentin Tarantino, film director. The Oscar winner has been adamant since “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” opened last July about sticking to his 10-film retirement plan, meaning he only has one feature film left before he gives up directing feature films for good. Tarantino will continue to create art via books, theater projects, and possibly even television series, but his film career is coming to an end at some point in the near future. In a video interview with Rolling Stone’s Peter Travers, Tarantino opened up about the personal reasons for giving up moviemaking.

Quentin Tarantino’s collaboration with his “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” cinematographer Robert Richardson started on “Kill Bill,” but it didn’t begin in the most conventional way. With “Kill Bill” Tarantino was referencing four distinct aesthetic styles of filmmaking: Shaw Brothers kung fu, pulpy 1970s samurai films, Japanese anime, and Spaghetti Westerns. When Tarantino was on IndieWire’s Filmmaker Toolkit podcast along with Richardson, he explained that he wanted to take a different approach to how he handled the film’s various styles.
“Initially putting the idea together in my mind, I had a whole hodgepodge idea of the movie [of] compartmentalizing the whole damn thing,” said Tarantino. “I even had an idea of hiring four composers to do different sections, nobody was into that idea. [Laughs] And at first I had the idea of hiring two different cinematographers and then I did.”

Quentin Tarantino considers Once Upon a Time in Hollywood to be the climax of his career, and thinks his next will be an epilogue.
Quentin Tarantino has been claiming since at least the release of Django Unchained that he was going to retire from directing movies with his 10th film. That plan hasn’t really changed, even as we now stand on the precipice of it with the release of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (his ninth movie… if you count both volumes of Kill Bill as a single film). In fact, whatever that film might be is starting to take vague tonal shape in the filmmaker’s head, as he revealed Wednesday that he thinks his last movie will be the equivalent of an epilogue to his career.

Quentin Tarantino snapped at a female reporter from The New York Times who asked why Margot Robbie wasn’t given more to say or do in his latest film “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.”
“I reject your hypothesis,” he said at a press conference for his new film on Wednesday morning at the Cannes Film Festival.
Robbie plays Sharon Tate in the movie. The film takes place in the 1960s Hollywood and focuses on a struggling TV actor named Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio) and his stunt double Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt) as they make their way through a changing movie industry.
At the press conference, Tarantino scowled — looking visibly upset — at the question as Robbie tried to tactfully answer it.
“I think the moments I was on screen gave a moment to honor Sharon,” Robbie said. “I think the tragedy was the loss of innocence. To show the wonderful...

Twenty five years after Quentin Tarantino took Cannes by storm with “Pulp Fiction,” the maverick director returned with “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,” receiving a six-minute standing ovation at Tuesday’s glittering premiere. It’s one of the longest such receptions at this year’s festival, which has been building up to the moment when Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio would stand side by side on the most glamorous red carpet in the world. Indeed, the two actors injected an impressive display of star-wattage at a festival that has been lacking in A-list appearances. Cameras flashed and fans screamed as DiCaprio and Pitt gamely posed for selfies and signed autographs.
