The script for his first movie took him four years to complete: \u003ci\u003eMy Best Friend’s Birthday\u003c\/i\u003e, a seventy-minute film in which he both acted and directed. The script for his second film, \u003ci\u003eReservoir Dogs\u003c\/i\u003e (1992), took him just under four weeks to complete. When it debuted, he was immediately hailed as one of the most exciting new directors in the industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKnown for his highly cinematic visual style, out-of-sequence storytelling, and grandiose violence, Tarantino’s films have provoked both praise and criticism over the course of his career. They’ve also won him a host of awards—including Oscars, Golden Globes, and BAFTA awards—usually for his original screenplays. His oeuvre includes the cult classic \u003ci\u003ePulp Fiction\u003c\/i\u003e, bloody revenge saga \u003ci\u003eKill Bill Vol. 1\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eVol. 2\u003c\/i\u003e, and historical epics \u003ci\u003eInglorious Basterds\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eDjango Unchained\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Hateful Eight\u003c\/i\u003e . This stunning retrospective catalogs each of Quentin Tarantino’s movies in detail, from \u003ci\u003eMy Best Friend’s Birthday\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eThe Hateful Eight\u003c\/i\u003e.
