Quentin Tarantino was born March 27th 1963in Knoxville to parents Tony Tarentino and Connie Zastoupil, Tennessee and today he is a successful director, but that's not all he does. Along with directing, he screen writes, does cinematography, produces and even cameos in his own films!

He grew up obsessed with films and worked in a film store whilst training to be an actor. During Tarantino's job at the film store, he paid attention to the films that customers rented, taking it into consideration for his directing career.

Tarantino's style is exessive, blood and gore is consistent and dialogue is engaging. His trademark is long takes, long clips of footage. He is widely known for his reoccuring cast and violence within his films. 

His career started in 1987  with his first ever film My Best Friend's Birthday, this film formed the basis for his film True Romance in 1993. His 1992 film Reservoir Dogs resulted with him as an independant film maker.
