Quentin Tarantino movies very rarely feature happy families. They barely contain any parental presence at all. One of the most memorable scenes in Pulp Fiction is a flashback. The boxer, Butch, played by Bruce Willis, remembers a pivotal moment from his childhood. The day he met a “special visitor,” named Capt. Koons (Christopher Walken), who interrupted the young boy’s cartoons to fulfill a final, personal mission. The captain had been imprisoned in the same Pow camp in Hanoi where Butch’s father died.
In one of cinema’s great monologues, and helped pave the way to Pulp Fiction grossing $213 million at the box office after it won the Palme d’Or at Cannes. Yet Tarantino did not buy his father a gold watch. And even if the director gets one when he retires after his next film, he probably won’t give that either to his mother Connie Zastoupil.

There’s no denying that Reservoir Dogs is a hugely important and influential film; after hitting the big time when it was first released back in ’92 by a then-unknown filmmaker by the name of Quentin Tarantino, it paved the way for a new era of independent films and changed Hollywood forever. One critic, Jami Bernard, even compared it to the iconic 1895 picture Arrival of the Mail Train, claiming that “people just weren’t ready for it.”
Filmmakers started making different kinds of motion pictures after Reservoir Dogs came onto the scene; low-budget, auteur-driven flicks began to spring up everywhere, not to mention countless copycat pictures packed with irreverent dialogue, scenes of people talking about nothing, non-linear narratives and sudden moments of unexpected ultra violence – not least of all in Tarantino’s epic follow-up, Pulp Fiction, in 1994.
Often hailed as the “greatest independent film of all-time,” Reservoir Dogs cannot...

The actor who played Jesus in Mel Gibson's 2004 film says he has been shunned by film industry since taking the role
The actor who played Jesus in Mel Gibson's 2004 blockbuster The Passion of the Christ says he has been shunned by Hollywood since taking the role.
Jim Caviezel was a regular name on cinema hoardings before agreeing to take the lead in the controversial, bloody retelling of Christ's final days. He headlined the 2002 remake of The Count of Monte Cristo and starred opposite Jennifer Lopez in the 2001 romantic drama Angel Eyes. However, Caviezel told an audience of churchgoers in Orlando, Florida on Saturday that he had "been rejected by my own industry" after choosing to join Gibson's cast.
Gibson, he said, had initially offered him the role, only to call him back 20 minutes later and beg him not to take it.
"He said, 'You'll never work in this town again.

A newspaper film critic is like a canary in a coal mine. When one croaks, get the hell out. The lengthening toll of former film critics acts as a poster child for the self-destruction of American newspapers, which once hoped to be more like the New York Times and now yearn to become more like the National Enquirer. We used to be the town crier. Now we are the neighborhood gossip.
The crowning blow came this week when the once-magisterial Associated Press imposed a 500-word limit on all of its entertainment writers. The 500-word limit applies to reviews, interviews, news stories, trend pieces and "thinkers." Oh, it can be done. But with "Synecdoche, New York?"
Demise of the ink-stained wretch
