- Terry Gilliam talks about mentoring Quentin Tarantino at the Sundance Institute.
This channel is NOT monetized. It's made for educational purposes only. From a movie fan, to movie fans.
I love how humble Gilliam is here. I mean, he's certainly no slouch himself.
You know, just directing some iconic master pieces and being a member in most likely the most famous comedy troupe in the world
I'm not the biggest fan but he will forever have a place in my heart for adapting Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. A book that I love immensely and a movie that became a personal favorite despite my initial prejudice. I also loved 12 Monkeys.
This is so amazing. You can hear this exact same story from Quentin Tarantino’s perspective on a huge Talk he gave to crowd of students, where he talked about Terry Gilliam talking to him, and some of the wise things he’s said. THIS IS GREAT
Mutual admiration from two of the best.
The Tin Drum is a brilliant movie. Having he and Gilliam as mentors would be amazing.
It is indeed an excellent movie.
The fact that Gilliam and Tarantino have such admiration for each other multplies by esteem for both men.
There is meant to be a cut of Django that's 90 mins longer. I NEED IT.
Anti - white propaganda, no thanks
Love this. I always loved "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" and of course any thing by Quentin Tarantino.
My friend at uni said this once, and it's so true. Every teenage boy who watched a Quentin Tarantino film, had most likely wanted to make movies like his.
Every kid who went to film school in the mid/late 90's did a Tarantino-style crime fiction in school.
It was also said of the band Velvet Underground: they only sold 10,000 records. But every buyer started a band.
Brazil and inglorious basterds da are two my all time favorite movies. Two great movies from two great directors
I'd love Quentin to use one of the former Pythons for his movie
Time is running out
@@DurkMcGerk Running out for both because the Pythons are sadly dying and Quentin wants to quit soon.
the basic fact that both of them write and make original movies is enough to praise them, especially as other filmmakers trapped themself with remakes, reboots and copies of other scripts which differ barely enough to avoid a lawsuit.
One doesnt have to love each QT or TG movie, its a matter of taste after all, but only really dumb fools would manage to hate/disrespect a movie they made.
One thing I'd caution people at as seeing Tarantino as "just" a machine that food-processes the earlier great flicks to make a new great flick. The guy is a legit innovator, IN ADDITION to the constant homage he's also doing. Gilliam couldn't be more positive, and that's not a surprise to me, but it still seems like he's blinded by the fireworks of homage and doesn't also see the novelty.
Gilliam is an artist. Tarantino is a mechanic.
Tarantino is embodiment of film, literally.
I don't think so. They're both artists in my book.
Quentin has this ability to take a mere "genre" piece and infuse it with such insidious crackerjack dialogue that it becomes a new, completely original animal!
Where/when was this recording made?
It's from a 2014 Total Film interview. You can find it here on TH-cam. It's 40 minutes long
@@filmmakersonfilms7623 Next time put that in the description.
@@darthmarticusLFC He’s not your bitch
@@darthmarticusLFC or what?
Even today there are people who watch Reservoir Dogs and say "it's okay" or dismiss it and I don't get it. Every frame of that movie is the peak of artistic achievement to me.
It's really brilliant but you're definitely exaggerating 😅
“Every frame of that movie is the peak of artistic achievement to me.”
…
@@EJ-bq1nu I'm reminded of a review of the movie that came out in the 90's. The critic said Reservoir Dogs was not only "not for everyone". They went a step further saying it was "hardly for anyone". I can't remember the line that came afterwards but they said something like "but for those who do connect with it, there's nothing that compares."
I think that's what Gilliam is getting at here. Like, I'm certainly not saying you're wrong if you think the film is just okay, but I do think that many people miss how, to some audience members, this is an unmatched experience.
@@Carlos-ln8fd No I think the film is a lot mor e than just okay but the comment about every frame makes it sound like Tarantino was Tarkovsky or Eisentstein in the 90's 😂.
@@EJ-bq1nu Yeah, fair enough.
Quentin, Kubrick, Kurosawa = the Very Best
🤦
You forgot Leone
Man there are a LOT of great directors. Leone as another said. Coppola had a couple great movies in him.
Gilliam was Tarantino before Tarantino, but never had real support
Mind you Sundance was the brain child of Robert Redford.
MY MENTORS ARE ALL THE DIRECTORS I'VE BOOMED FOR.
Wth?
There is absolutely nothing wrong with reusing iconic film motifs. Musicians from multiple styles reuse the same 12 notes, and nobody bats an eye.
💜💚💜💚💜💚💜💚🍸🍸🍸
What’s with the middle guys forehead?
Cranial swelling from listening to these two guys exchange ideas.
I like Tarantino but some of his movies have become a BOREFEST of late...
Q makes counter culture films that have mass appeal - incredible! Plus he is not PC - thankfully!
You only like him because he can get away with calling people "Niggers" while you can not.
I liked Terry Gilliam until now. He's partly responsible for unleashing Quentin Tarantino on the world. I don't see how being an obscure, pop culture blender using Tarantino's themes deserves any praise. In a review of Inglourious Basterds, David Denby referred to Quentin Tarantino as an idiot de la cinémathèque.
Just like the reviewers, you were never meant to be a film director.
The blind commending the blind.
Quentin Tarantino is the most overated director in the industry, in my opinion, followed closely by Almodovar. Thay both did a couple of brilliant movies that launched their careers then regressed to rubbish, but thei reputations were made, and now nobody dares to criticize them. Gilliam, on the other hand, consistently creates masterpieces.
You're missing the fact that Gilliam himself, here, says Tarantino is brilliant, and Gilliam doesn't have the reputation for sucking up to anyone, and he definitely knows his trade.
@@fuferito Gilliam has his opinion and I have mine and you don't have to be a chicken to judge an egg.
You're friking clueless.
@@steveokula5762Pulp Jackie Brown Kill Bill and Once upon are easily masterpieces and classics, by vast acclamation.
@@stevem2323 Pulp Fiction was great, Jackie Brown mediocre, and Kill Bill started Tarantino's downward spiral into the toilet. Simple popularity does not by itself bestow virtue.
Resovoir Dogs is the only good film Tarantino ever made.
Wagh!
The worst pyhon member nmo
The opinion an idiot might have
Dear oh dear...
What’s a pyhon? Answer that fat body
How so?
Sounds like you think his contribution was in front of the camera like the rest of them.
