Does Quentin Tarantino's dependence on other films for creative inspiration make him a cinematic con artist or a media-stimulated filmmaker?
Speaker:
If you’ve ever seen a Tarantino film, you've probably seen them all. It is argued that Tarantino steals ideas and rips off cinematographic themes from popular, and unpopular, films around the world. Some argue that the director is simply a thief and is completely incapable of creating his own original content, whereas others argue he is a manipulative genius who takes the most inspirational traits from his favourite films and shrouds them in his own stylistic manner. Tarantino’s patchwork masterpiece, Pulp Fiction, is the most expressive of his works when it comes to representing “stolen” ideas, as most of the elements can be identified as unoriginal content.
