Quentin Tarantino hoards junk.
Hoarder and director Quentin Tarantino (R) arrives with German Burlesque performer Tallulah Freeway (L) at the premiere of 'Inglourious Basterds' in Berlin, Germany, 28 July 2009. Directed by Quentin Tarantino, 'Inglourious Basterds' will be released in Germany on 20 August. EPA/JENS KALAENE .
The 'Inglourious Basterds' director never throws things away, but blames the fact he lives alone for his less-than-pristine surroundings.
He said: "I'm a bachelor, so literally my place is like a dorm room. A fraternity house of one. If you walked in the door you would just see lots of stacks of sh*t.
"You could come to my house to visit and bring a copy of a magazine with you and put it on the counter, and three years later you could come back and that magazine would still be on that counter.
"I have a problem throwing stuff out."
The filmmaker also refuses to throw away electronic equipment and can't understand why people replace their old devices with modern equivalents.
He added to FHM magazine: "I lose respect for people who disconnect their video tape player. If you don't have a record player, if you don't have a vinyl player that you can play, if you don't have your VCR still connected to your TV, you go down a little bit in my estimations."
