If there is something magic about the collaborations I have with actors it's because I put the character first.

I was trying to do like a spaghetti western but using World War II iconography.

The next movie will be in Mandarin. I enjoyed shooting all the Japanese stuff in Kill Bill so much that this whole film will be entirely in Mandarin.

I look at 'Death Proof' and realize I had too much time.

My parents said, Oh, he's going to be a director someday. I wanted to be an actor.

I don’t want to be an old-man filmmaker, making old-man movies, and I don’t want to be the one not to know when to leave the party.

I've always wanted to work with Warren Beatty.
