foreign Tarantino might be one of the most well-known film directors out there and he certainly has acquired a style of his own in this video we're going to take a look at what defines Tarantino's trademarks as a filmmaker and where he got his inspiration [Music] first we are going to take a look at Tarantino's way of structuring his stories in almost all of his movies we can see a non-linear way of Storytelling and that is a sequence based writer you can argue that all movies are sequence based which in truth they are but in Tarantino's films it's so much clearer usually we're used to seeing movies that are based on a 3X structure which means it has a beginning middle and an end preferably in that order as well a Tarantino likes to shake things up a bit and writes his stories in a non-linear format the beginning of the movie could be the same as the end and instead of having a parallel narrative where the audience gets to follow several people at the same time he chooses to only follow one of the characters and later on lets us see the same moment from another character's perspective this means that the audience doesn't have all the information at hand when things unfold on screen which is a great way to increase suspense and makes it easier to add a little twist at the end to then inform the audience about the situation at hand Tarantino tends to either go back in time and show it again or break the fourth wall with either a narrator or character speaking directly to the audience I I'm gonna kill [Music] shaking The Narrative around like this makes it easier when writing the movie in sequences almost like a group of different short films within the movie itself and there's no better example of this than Tarantino's Pond or winning film Pulp Fiction the first sequence is Honey Bunny and pumpkin at the restaurant followed by the second sequence which is with Jules and Vincent then we jump to the patch sequence with Jules and Vincent arriving in different clothes then we have Vincent and Mia back to Butch and finally back to Jules and Vincent together with honey bunny and pumpkin when the movie started a number of sequences all with their own beginning middle and end that tie the movie together when seen as a whole I think we should be leaving here the same can be seen in Tarantino's other movies as well and many of them even divide these sequences with a chapter just like a novel talentino likes to write his movies in sequences just as much as he likes to work with the same actors well you got a problem with that we all [Music] Tarantino is well known for his quick and profanity field dialogue which enrichens the characters within his movies but some of these really tend to stick out especially when they turn into more of a monologue these monologues not only add more Flair to the characters that deliver them but they also work as a tension booster and raise the stakes Tarantino often places these monologues just before something big is about to happen like the death of a character oh I'm sorry did I break your concentration please continue taking glorious bastards as an example When Hans Lander sits down and talks with the farmer Perrier who is hiding juice underneath his floorboards throughout houses entire dialogue tension is building up more and more since Hans is slowly revealing what he knows about period and the people that he has hit him and piece by piece the audience gets to know who Hans really is and that his charm and smile only hide something very sinister the whole monologue in itself is like a battle fought entirely with words with Hans Lander having the upper hand the same can be seen in the hateful eight when major Warren reveals that he was the one that killed General sandis Miller's son this is not necessarily something that will drive the plot forward but it will set the tone on what's about to come Warren starts the monologue by placing a gun at smither's side signaling to the audience that something big is about to happen and then methodically tells Smithers the story on how he met and killed smither's son throughout the whole monologue the stakes rise between the men and the tension increases until the climax with Smithers is shot dead these monologues can be seen throughout all of Tarantino's movies where their Prime function is to build tension raise the stakes and often end in violence I won't give you some you can't take off [Applause] Tarantino is no stranger to graphic violence in his movies you can almost see an incline in how graphic the deaths are for each movie rest of our dogs Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown are all pretty standard when it comes to how graphical the deaths are even though they do contain a lot of blood but starting with Kill Bill we definitely Jump Up A Notch and after that he just tries to surprise us more and more for each movie and it's often when you least expect it sure you might suspect that someone will die especially if our tension Rising monologue just occurred but the way it will happen might surprise you the way or Rand deals with her competitors or how stuntman Mike kills off the girls in the car or even how the Inglorious Bastards kill Hitler the violence is also something that Tarantino has been criticized for but it kinda adds that little cherry on top when watching one of his movies many of these violent scenes are a little over the top which creates a mixture of shock factor and comic relief and if someone is going to die you can be sure that there will be a point of view shot from the deceased [Music] many of Tarantino's movies pay homage to not only a specific genre but to other films as well in some movies you can clearly see what Tarantino is taking his inspiration from like Death Proof which is some homage to the old Grindhouse and exploitation movies that could be viewed in Rundown theaters in the 60s and 70s in fact most of his movies take inspiration from other films from this era but not necessarily the same genre they are a mix of movies from different genres and countries Kill Bill takes inspiration from movies such as lady snowblood Thriller and Sergio Leones spaghetti western Pulp Fiction has seeds of inspiration such as the French movie banned apart and the Italian movie Black Sabbath the same can be said about the rest of his movies that all take inspiration from more obscure films that could be seen in the 60s and 70s that Tarantino has molded into something of his own creation and in some cases even costed actors from said era and genre for his own movies nowadays you could even say that Tarantino's movies are their own genre their own universe thanks to such a wide inspiration of movies that no longer get produced Tarantino has managed to encapsulate these forgotten genres that only survived because of old sheep rundown Cinemas and in some form the VHS era and turn it into something else something bigger something Tarantino egos you say but he not only takes inspiration from foreign films he also takes inspiration from Hollywood Classics as well often recreating shots from those movies or paying tribute to them by letting characters reference them in their dialogue which reflects Tarantino's love and passion for Cinema Clark Kent is Superman's critique on the whole human race thank you for watching if you liked what
