tarantino is just awesome
i just saw his last movie Death Proof
just simply amazing
Tarantino recreates a world of vinyl jukebox, groovy cars and adventurer-girls that only exists as an illusion
what i realized is that he has just a real fixation on feet
specially women's
we can see that in the beginning of the movie where you see a camera shoot with a
travelling car with two beautiful woman's feet out of the window
kind of like in the sequence when The bride in Kill Bill is into th Pussy Wagon
and is trying to get together
but this not the only connection with Kill Bill
Tarantino uses in Death Proof different shooting techniques which might
help to set in the theme of the movie but not into a time frame
indeed after some shoots you see pretty recent nokia mobiles which
definitely means the movie was set in the 21st century
Soderberg also used previous shooting techiques in his movie The Good German
set back in the 40's post war Germany and using the cinema techniques of the time
the movie is set in Texas(at least for the first part), just like in Kill Bill who is set in Pasadena
then we move to tenesee
we also see Tarantino's art for dancing filming
he shot the scene himself like he did for Pulp Fiction
the dance also reminded of the one performed by Salma Hayek in from Dusk till Dawn
nothing but sexy
and i loved so much his shoots on girls ass making feel kinky from time to time
Kurt Russell is just an awesome actor playing the Psychopath StuntmanMike
his performance is at the top-level in the scene where he stops and tries to get together
and clear his arm...
Tarantino has a certain passion and a very particular way of
portraying pain
like the first to die in the car... with her face totally smashed and her agony before passing away
and the shotS from when the four girls in the car die
each of them is just so fabuloushe used the same in Kill Bill, particularly Volume I, where he had a perfect
mix of macabre and beauty
We also see again Ranger Earl McGraw and Son #1
the two we saw in Kill Bill vol:I
same characters, same moments (after death), same conclusion (stuff everyone already know)
I think that Tarantino's head is like a maze and in each and every of his movie we sometime
see the way in this whole neverending maze
so many intermovie references; to himself, like the girl's ringtone who's Twisted Nerves (the whistling song from Kill Bill vol I)
not to mention the language all over the movie
this whole American accent all over the place... with the Bitch, Fuck, SUck, Damn, SHit (i don't think i need to continue)
the car pursuits have been so well shot and the adreline really bursts in you the whole time
the last scene of the movie still reminds me of Kill Bill vol:I during which the Bride
fights the Mighty 88
here there's three chicks hitting on StuntmanMike...even the mum who got her long skirt up
as usual Tarantino appears in the movie
like here he plays Warren, a barman who drinks a lot, particularly shots and we see a wonderfull make-up work on him!
the movie is just a hail to the independance that all lower-middle class women should have or should dream of!
all in all just a wonderfull movie
i just wonder what happened to the Cheerleader girl.....
