The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
"Tarantino's Mind" is a 15-minute live action short film from 2006, sot his one had its 10th anniversary last year. For the duo of filmmakers who made this, it was the very first work and nothing followed. Until this year (2017), that is because they reunited for a full feature movie. Anyway, back to this one here. It is basically 2 guys at a bar and one of them tells the other his theories about characters in Quentin Tarantino's movies. The essence of it all is that these films take place in the same universe and the characters played by the same actor are also the same person. One example: Mia Wallace is The Bride. I think this was mildly entertaining at times, but it's really more of a film that scores through strangeness than through authenticity. And we have to keep in kind that this is film on film, so part of it really relies on other people's creative efforts, in this case Quentin Tarantino's. Another thing I did not like is that they included some crucial scenes from Tarantino's films. Scenes that are massive spoilers if you haven't seen Kill Bill for example. Overall, it wasn't a bad watch, but I still give it a thumbs-down as the memorable simply isn't as frequent as the forgettable. I suggest you skip it unless you really love Tarantino and care about what other people think/say about him.
