Quentin Tarantino's death wish

Mar 6, 2007, 14:00 GMT

Quentin Tarantino would have died for 'Pulp Fiction'.

The controversial director was so involved in making both the cult movie and 'Reservoir Dogs' he would have risked his life to finish them.

Quentin told the Culture magazine: "I would have died for 'Reservoir Dogs' and I would have died getting a shot for 'Pulp Fiction'.

"I don't know if I would have died for 'Jackie Brown' and that scared me a little. I think the reason was that it was based on a novel, it wasn't an original thing born from me."

Quentin also believes directors "lose touch" as they grow older.

He said: "Directors don't get better as they get older. They get worse - and they get out of touch.

"There is this weird thing with movie-making where you kind of figure out how to do it. You're pulled along by experience. By the second one you know a hell of a lot more than you did on the first one. I don't want to be a professional. I like holding on to my amateur status."
