Quentin Tarantino

Llega el esperado y ansiado primer libro de no ficción de Quentin Tarantino.Un relato genial y en primera persona de cómo se fraguó el Hollywood moderno: un viaje personal e íntimo por su cine preferido.Probablemente, Quentin Tarantino sea uno de los mayores cineastas de la historia, pero de lo que no hay atisbo de duda es de que estamos hablando del espectador que mejor puede contagiar su pasión entusiasta por las películas que ha visto. Ahora, por fin llega el libro con el que tantos años soñaron él y sus seguidores. En Meditaciones de cine, Tarantino analiza desde los puntos de vista más insólitos y con su particular conocimiento enciclopédico varias películas clave del cine norteamericano de los setenta, todas ellas vistas en su más tierna infancia (de las más violentas a las más tórridas), así como revisitadas compulsivamente. El resultado es una obra tan rigurosa y reflexiva como juguetona y entretenida.Meditaciones de cine es, a la vez, crítica cinematográfica, teoría del cine, reportaje literario y unas memorias formidables, a la altura de clásicos del género como los de Hitchcock y Truffaut o Luis Buñuel.

A unique cocktail of personal memoir, cultural criticism and Hollywood history by the one and only Quentin Tarantino. The long-awaited first work of nonfiction from the author of the number one New York Times bestselling Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: a deliriously entertaining, wickedly intelligent cinema book as unique and creative as anything by Quentin Tarantino. In addition to being among the most celebrated of contemporary filmmakers, Quentin Tarantino is possibly the most joyously infectious movie lover alive.

Set in the South two years before the Civil War, Django Unchained stars Django, a slave whose brutal history with his former owners lands him face-top-face with German-born bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz. Schultz is on the trail of the murderous Brittle brothers, and only Django can lead him to his bounty. The unorthodox Schultz acquires Django with a promise to free him upon the capture of the Brittles - dead or alive. Success leads Schultz to free Django, though the two men choose not to go their separate ways. Instead, Schultz seeks out the South's most wanted criminals with Django by his side. Honing vital hunting skills, Django remains focused on one goal: finding and rescuing Broomhilda, the wife he lost to the slave trade long ago. Django and Schultz's search ultimately leads them to Calvin Candie, the proprietor of `Candlyand`, an infamous plantation. Exploring the compound under false pretenses, Django and Schultz arouse the suspicion of Stephen, Candie's trusted house slave. Their moves are marked, and a treacherous organization closes in on them. If Django and Schultz are to escape with Broomhilda, they must choose between independence and solidarity, between sacrifice and survival.
