Quentin Tarantino on Sergio Corbucci

[@ingvarhallstrom2306]

Tarantino working himself up to a frenzy over a fellow film maker is the best thing that ever happened. It's what KZbin was made for...

[@theodorerooseveltsantlers270]

Listening to Tarantino talk about Corbucci is like hearing Scorsese talk about Powell & Pressburger.

[@SharkWhosFondOfBond]

The Great Silence is easily in my top 4 favourite westerns and one of my top 50 all time favourites! Tarantino has awesome takes!

[@m1lst3r89]

tarantino may spoke of Leone as one of his Gods, but he will always be to me closer to Corbucci than Leone.

[@MikeBarratt-lk3gt]

He holds Leone in even higher regard than corbucci but both are great just in different ways.

[@jglg7238]

both of these Italian directors stolen rip-off akira Kurosawa Yojimbo 1961

[@samiam7342]

Quentin speaks like a film history textbook.....and that's off the top of his head.

[@mellifont96]

Nah he’s just basically obsessed with a few genres like spaghetti westerns and obscure kung fu

[@TunezCottage]

​@@mellifont96 are you being serious? Everybody that knows him says the guy has a encyclopedia like knowledge of movies and the people involved with them. Mention a name and he'll tell you what that person worked on. The guy lives and breathes movies.

[@mellifont96]

@@TunezCottage I actually am serious, I’m convinced his prowess on movie knowledge only relates to a few genres. I know he supposed to be the boss but whenever he talks about movies it’s just either praising spaghetti westerns/ new hollywood or shitty hot takes. If you have any interesting interviews or articles I will check them out

[@TunezCottage]

@@mellifont96 how about his podcast Video Archives where him and roger avary watch old flicks and talk about them. Most of which are not related to either of what you've mentioned. Plenty of stuff for you to check out there. On top of that it's a really interesting podcast too with great movies (and bad ones) to watch along with. Edit: misspelling of Roger's name.

SENSEI SERGIO CORBUCCI was eclipsed by the other Sergio,a GENIUS called LEONE. BUT Corbucci was a GIANT. THE BEST Western AUTEURS of all time in CINEMA. & there's nothing better more delicious than SPAGHETTI ✊🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🔥🍝🍻🇧🇷💚

[@robfuzz]

I want to hear Tarantino talk about every director!!

[@jimmyblood3416]

Tarantino: “You don’t become a master of cinema action until you make 30 movies” Also Tarantino: “My fourth movie is a cinema action masterpiece”

[@Largentina.]

When did he say that about Kill Bill?

[@stevem2323]

And he is, easily.

[@LafayetteInverso]

TWO fake quotes in one only comment. great!

[@vitorafmonteiro]

@@LafayetteInversoAt least the 1st is CLOSE to what Tarantino said and his point.

[@Heisenberdy]

30 movies Quentin? Well you pulled it of after 4...and have been doing it ever since

[@TunezCottage]

What's crazy is that he thought he'd need three movies to hit it big. Did it on the first one.

[@erichenriksbo3379]

Never a bad word about the Bolshevik’s comes out of Tarantino’s mouth. Dead give away

[@doublep1980]

Corbucci´s Westerns were radical af, specially considering the time they were produced. "Navajo Joe" for example, starts off with a brutal massacre on a peaceful Native Indian tribe. And Corbucci doesn´t imply the violence, noooo he shows it in graphic detail! These f*ckers literally ride into the settlement and start casually killing and scalping those poor people, like it´s another Tuesday or something. Keep in mind, this was during a time where most Hollywood Western depicted the Natives as "savages" and usually didn´t show graphic violence on screen. And the original Django is just one of the most misanthropic & cynical movies out there. The only genuinely good person, is the saloon owner and the poor bastard is getting murdered for his kindness.

[@shamusteakiawa]

I only remember Corbucci from watching Bud Spencer and Terence Hill, lol

[@mellifont96]

Lmao Tarantino saying you don’t get good until 30 movies that’s ironic

[@sebastianfitzptraick7395]

It was very unoriginal of Tarantino to take the Django name and theme and stick it on a completely unrelated film to Corbucci’s original. A bit of an overreach.

[@eFMe-fk1xh]

Tarantino whole cinematography is based on blatant unoriginal ideas, not citations but blatant copies, merged and elaborated in a totally original movie; it's his way. He's the inventor and master of pop cinema. So it makes sense that he goes as far as even using the same name of one of his favorite films just to homage it.

[@mungdaal9643]

Ok, so here's a bit of backstory. When Sergio Corbucci's Django came out, it was a monster hit and beloved by everyone. So much so, that other filmmakers started churning out "Django" movies which had absolutely nothing to do with the original outside of the title and the main character being named Django, like Django the Bastard, Django Kill if you live shoot, and Viva Django. Tarantino isn't just paying homage to Sergio Corbucci's Django, he's also paying homage to all of the Django knockoffs from those times too.

[@leonardomattarmonteiro2824]

​@@mungdaal9643Exactly 🤜🏼🤛🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🍻🖤

[@ryansmith3361]

It was a love letter to spaghetti westerns. There's references to so many Italian western films. Hell, Franco Nero (original Django) is in his Django Unchained movie lol Django composer Ennio Marricone also wrote an original song "Ancora Qui" for the film If this bothers you so much I can't wait till you find out that Inglorious Bastards (1978) exists lol

[@KristineMaitland]

​@@mungdaal9643 Thank you for the explanation.

[@EddieHenderson92]

The villains are fascist? I think that is a reach.

[@monacofederico]

So bad spoken english as voiceover.. why?

[@kammerspielfilms]

Good take but I would not throw Fascism in the mix. It's cynical view on history that is all.

[@wHackbilly]

Huh?

[@jglg7238]

Django 1966 and a fistful of dollars is a stolen rip-off of Akira Kurosawa Yojimbo 1961

[@anz2441]

And your point ???

[@thebottles2667]

No way, really?

[@EddieHenderson92]

Everyone rips off and other countries take ideas from American movies all the time. I'm good with it as long as you make a good movie and put your own spin on it.

[@windyhead7960]

Kurosawa himself based Yojimbo upon an American novel; The Red Harvest.
