"I’m really well versed on a lot of directors’ careers, you know, and when you look at those last five films when they were past it, when they were too old, and they’re really out of touch with the times, whether it be William Wyler and The Liberation of L.B. Jones or Billy Wilder with Fedora and then Buddy Buddy or whatever the hell. To me, it’s all about my filmography, and I want to go out with a terrific filmography. Death Proof has got to be the worst movie I ever make. And for a left-handed movie, that wasn’t so bad, all right? — so if that’s the worst I ever get, I’m good. But I do think one of those out-of-touch, old, limp, flaccid-dick movies costs you three good movies as far as your rating is concerned."
>"If you live in France, for instance, and you have written one good book, or painted one good picture, or directed one outstanding film fifty years ago and nothing else since, you are still recognized and honored accordingly. People take their hats off to you and call you "maître". They do not forget. In Hollywood—in Hollywood, you're as good as your last picture. If you didn't have one in production within the last three months, you're forgotten, no matter what you have achieved ere this."

Nigga looks like an old ass Double D from Ed Edd n Eddy

This is a lie. Everyone remembers To Kill a Mockingbird or Catcher in the Rye just like everyone remembers fucking John Wayne, the greatest hack who ever hacked.
I don't buy it.
>>64324764
I liked Death Proof more than all of this loser's movies except Pulp and Reservoir. So...I dunno.

>>Kurosawa's Kagemusha and Ran
His last good films but he ended on his "I don't want to die" movie streak which is both really bad and morbidly depressing.
>>64326056
They literally made nothing else though. He's talking about people who made something great, followed by a career mediocre/uninspired work, not people who just got in and got out.
Is he right?
>>64326489
okay. So everyone forgot about Francis Ford Coppola since he has been senile making shitty films for the last 15-20 years?
>>64326575
Yes. He's literally a laughing stock in Hollywood.
>>64326564
He only reads cucold novels passed to him by his mother
>>64324886
I live in France and the only people we call "maître" are our mâle school teachers.
Tarantino is a meme director who's run out of ideas to copy and it shows in every film he's made since kill bill.
I loved him despite knowing the source material he pays homage to(ripped off). But the emperor has no clothes and his work has been mediocre for a very long time.

To be fair, To Kill... and Catcher in the Rye are literary works, not Hollywood productions. The literary world has always valued the brief, brilliant career over the long and prolific one.

I agree with this, it's better to make fewer, better movies and have a great legacy than be ridley scott and half your movies are dog shit.
