Quentin Tarantino is the most influential filmmaker of the past 30 years. His bloody, talky, nonlinear films pull together dozens of influences to form bracingly original cinematic events. In a Hollywood that worships at the altar of franchises and remakes, Tarantino’s films are the best kind of tentpoles - wholly unique cinematic visions from a filmmaker at the peak of his powers.

QT8: The First Eight chronicles the filmmaker from his trendsetting work on Reservoir Dogs, giving a raw, honest look at the auteur’s career through interviews with his casts, producers and industry friends.

Filmography: 21 Years: Richard Linklater (2014).
