description: "He made ultra-violence stylish, profanity operatic, and pop-culture references a structural principle — then won Oscars for it. Two generations of filmmakers have tried to copy the Tarantino syntax; none have his ear for dialogue or his nerve."

# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Tarantino arrived in 1992 with Reservoir Dogs, an independent crime film that announced a new sensibility. Two years later Pulp Fiction won the Palme d'Or at Cannes and his first Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, turning a non-linear crime comedy-drama into a cultural reset. He wrote and starred in From Dusk till Dawn (1996), then directed Jackie Brown (1997) as homage to blaxploitation. The two-volume Kill Bill (2003–2004) plunged into martial arts; Death Proof (2007) was his half of the Grindhouse double feature with Robert Rodriguez. Inglourious Basterds (2009) rewrote World War II, and Django Unchained (2012) — a slave revenge Spaghetti Western — won him his second screenplay Oscar. The Hateful Eight (2015) played as a roadshow revisionist Western thriller, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019) closed the 1960s with a comedy-drama about Old Hollywood's death. His films have grossed over $1.9 billion worldwide. He's said his tenth will be his last.
