[@jeremymullins1294]

being a huge fan of both Gilliam and Tarantino, I am just over the moon that Terry gave Quentin the best advice ever.

[@XanderWilde]

I would go without food, water and sleep for as long as I could before I died over and over for a year for a 5 minute conversation with Quintin about film making.

[@MOS6582]

At first glance the angle of the shot makes it look like he drove his car into a hedge and he’s playing it cool for the gawkers by adjusting his wipers.

[@SuchetB]

Quintin is an absolutely amazing director and so generous and sharing and giving of his own knowledge, he truly loves film. i love all of his work.

The greatest piece of advice ever!

[@ChicagoBeaver]

He truly is an encyclopedia of movies bcz he loves movies, he knows them, he loves talking about them, he lives, eats and breathes movies. Just an amazing person, he's like a kid again, giddy when he talks movies. I love listening to him.

[@宏耀許]

glad to see quentin doing something like this

[@SuperWillHatch]

Always a pleasure hearing a maestro like Quentin speak.

[@jorisw_]

Crazy enjoyable. What a guy.

[@michaelrey2159]

At the beginning of the speech, he is reading off the paper; going by the book so to speak. Not even a few seconds later, he folds it and puts it in his pocket like an absolute boss. This particular detail really speaks to who Quentin is. He’s never gone by the book since he never went to film school. He let his passion guide him, much like this speech. Inspiring...

[@anundyingfire]

I think that was more him using his notes to help him introduce his talk. To commence in a "proper" manner and lay out the ground work of what he would be discussing. After that his talk is really more reminiscing about events that he experienced which he doesn't need reference for. He just free styles that.

[@michaelrey2159]

Ian M Could be. But either way you look at it, he still let the passion see him through to the conclusion. Regardless, he didn’t read off of a paper like most would.

[@erikbentley9005]

I genuinely love listening to this man talk about movies, or hell, anything!

[@TheSubwaysurfer]

this guy has developed his own playbook without ever going to film school. The man is brilliant

[@johnmackin6402]

So inspiring. Quentin is so passionate. If you're a true filmmaker, you have to love this. Because it's so true. Directing is getting your vision out through everyone else. That's the main job.

[@ahyaok100]

It's rare to see someone talk so passionately about something they truly love. You can't help to be inspired by that even if you're not a fan of whatever it is they're talking about. This man is a legend.

Thank you Mr. Tarantino for sharing your vision with us.

[@crownlands7246]

Clever he is, conveying important, self-taught, experienced hands-on insights, very amicable and at ease charming, thanks for sharing.

[@misquotedbuffalo3757]

Tarantino is one of the ones whose always looking to share his insights; as it were with his own younger self, but at the same time with everyone else, and with me. It is this element of his work that all of his greatest moments are built upon. For the record, Inglorious Bastards is awe inspiring storytelling. Kill Bill volumes one and two are underrated even though they still garnered a lot of appraise. And I think his biggest mistake he ever made is his interpretation of Bruce Lee in Once Upon a Time. Lastly, I love this talk that he made. I could listen to him lecture for hours. He has such a inquisitive instinct to seek out the dramatic and the interesting. And it's when he talks that you really feel his talent.

[@APerson4889-g5f]

I don't think the Bruce Lee depiction was a "mistake" I think it was an intentional wish-fulfilment scenario. Tarantino claims that Bruce Lee in real life was very disrespectful to stuntmen and didn't like them, whereas Tarantino has nothing but the highest respect for stunt people and it's my sneaking suspicion that - in that scene - he was venting a little creative revenge on Lee on stuntmens' behalf.

[@jimmyrayflynn3370]

I greatly appreciate listening to Quentin share his stories, with these students, at this event. To be an artist, is a calling, not for the faint of heart. Dreams into action, what it's all about. Seems like yesterday, we were working together on Sam Shepard's "True West" in Allen Garfield's acting class. I'm happy for the man, his success, for his creativity. COOL to see him in this light...

[@basehead617]

Allen Garfield in Skateboard is all I can think of! Ridiculous movie, but he tries his best.

[@SamuelDaram]

This is a real treat to hear Quentin's speech. Thank you to 'tfl UCLA' for filming and sharing this event.

[@kapilmarathe01]

10.20 those are golden words

[@pacnick11]

Tarantino's talent is perfectly shown here: He seems like a very humble and caring individual, but on a movie set has created some of the most violent/action-packed throughout the past 2 decades. Although, I don't know personally how he behaves during film production, I can assume it isn't pretty when things go south.

[@84blizzle]

unlike most directors i haven't really heard anything bad about qt flippin out on set....in fact there are alot of behind the scenes type videos of him directing and hes pretty much the same there as he is here

[@bztrd80]

He's one of the, if not THE Most Hard Working writer-director in Hollywood. Writing, Pre Production, Shooting and Post Production he is 100% all into it. On the set it's all about the day and the job to be done, he's very kind but also very serious, he know's everyone on the set and almost everyone's name (and there's hundreds of people). He directs right next to the camera (not like other directors sitting in the back watching the monitor). He's a huge motivator and he really pushes everyone to do their best and to unite the cast & crew like a family, so working on any of his projects its like an adventure and it's very fun (literally fun!). You can watch tons of behind the scenes on dvd's and specials from almost every of his movies, and there's interviews to all of the actors who ever worked with him and they all talk about the same thing adding in their personal details and stories.

[@magnuskallas]

Beautiful and inspiring speech, but there are good examples of directors taking over of the tech side also. Simple case: Cameron. Model builder. Carpenter... On some level Nolan. Or stuntdouble becoming an actor (Quentin knows) or even director: the Wick series.
