Rezensionen

'Quentin Tarantino: The Iconic Filmmaker and His Work is a gloriously presented book bursting at the seams with enough information and detail to make even the mercurial Tarantino himself dizzy. For fans of Quentin Tarantino - or simply of those who are fans of cinema, period - this is must-read that you'll struggle to put down' Starburst
