I love all of the Tarantino films I've seen,
Have you seen that stupid remake of the Roald Dahl story from ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS, in which Tarantino, Willis and pals seem to have no knowledge of the piece beyond ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS? [QT may be one savvy cineaste, but that's one of Dahl's most famous works, and our hero is clueless.] It's in the "comedy" FOUR ROOMS, by R-Rod, QT, and two others...



That's a really awful criticism of the segment. The segment is not about the Roald Dahl story, or even about the Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode, it's about a bunch of drunk guys who once saw the episode. I don't see why the Dahl story matters at all.



A real Tarantino "hero" would know that too [the story had by then been shot at last twice] and maybe even use the info to further torture the hapless bellboy. We're talking meta-knowledge of film history, which is what these movies all brag about.
