Patently, when analyzing the movie in terms of employing characters in the importance of their roles (e.g. Protagonist, Antagonist or supporting characters) Hollywood has determined the line-up. However, in my opinion, Quentin’s non-linear writing allots balance collaborative stories, and each plot apart from time on screen comes across having vital main diverse characters. Many writers develop great main characters and skim on sidekick, but Quentin has no ‘sidekick’ effect because all his characters’ development remains pivotal in their scene. Resulting in an interchangeable protagonist and antagonist, and their character is varying in every scene. In addition, one can view these jump-cuts or flashbacks confusing some if the stories may be …show more content…
Definitely, this stands out as a defining stylistic form in storytelling and reflective to novel writing, where the story sways from linear writing. More so, than Hollywood Classical Narrative linear storylines (Gomery and Pafort-Overduin). There is a science to Quentin’s madness of multi-level stories and page-popping character arc development. Accordingly, all these fine details are what makes a stylistic impression.
Discriminatively, Reservoir Dogs a crime noir thriller, in his own words, “It’s a heist film, about a bunch of guys who get together to pull a robbery, and everything that can go wrong, goes wrong” (Tarantino 4). Stereotypical of a robbery gone awry; the cops chase and someone in the bunch of hoodlums is either an informer, and in this case an undercover cop. What differentiates this story from others alike? Clever dialog for one, and the dialog was the riveting part of the scene in creating angst and fear. Although, there was blood spillage and ear-slicing horror, none of the scene showed the point of impact. Was Quentin attempting to purposely provoke humor, amidst glaring bloody scenes, but in subtle ways through

Otherwise, pivotal in expanding technique which proceeds with other artists in their chosen medium to build upon. Encompassing a specific style is simple when attaching a tag, but it’s complexities are the intricate layers it takes to reach what many desire as an artist, numerous realize, and some standout. One astounding mannerism of endurance in refining his style overtime, while blatantly dismissing mainstream education, and he did not allow his shortcomings to barricade his pursuit of happiness. In a televised interview with PBS TV host and journalist, Charlie Rose; referring to Quentin’s early years on dropping out of high school, his poor writing and tunnel-vision for movies, Quentin said, “I couldn’t spell, I couldn’t remember anything, but I could go to the movies, I knew who starred, directed, who wrote it. Everything… [because of films] I was getting A’s in history, failing miserably in other things” (Tarrantino). Amazing. Inspirational, for many with the hurdles limitation, and the wants of creating something atypical. Structure in this business of writing is imperative, and of course it is founded. Quentin has also reminded one: What necessitates success is the value in tackling perseverance, despite adversities because opposition should not intrude with artistic vision and stylistic vibe. Quentin’s film
Rather than a direct style this needs more thinking from the reader which on the other side supports the readers understanding of the problems Atwood addresses in her novel. Margaret Atwood's style clearly leaves room for the reader whether to
The organization and transitions take away from his actual writing. He jumps from one idea to another and it is not clear what the point is at that specific moment. One example of this is when he jumps from masculinity, to a short paragraph about femininity, then abruptly back to the problems with being a male.
While reading a well written story I am conscious of the atmosphere the author creates through the particular style they choose to use. As a reader, I am able to admire the way in which the writer presents their characters and setting, and be conscious of the overall voice used in their writing. The "voice" used in the writing is often the most obvious aspect of an author's style to detect. The author's "voice" is the way
Of course, one can argue that this style of writing adds to the uniqueness of the book. I agree that it does make the book unique – uniquely pompous that is.
Structure is salient, especially in literature. So much can be revealed solely through the way a novel is written. Two prime examples of this are Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman and In the Time of the Butterflies by Julia Alvarez. Alternating points of view are present in both, and that detail exposes connections between two seemingly unrelated novels. Although Richard Mayhew and Dedé Mirabal are two very different characters, they share the struggle of loss and a lack of ipseity, but are resilient and overcome their hardships, which is shown constantly throughout each novel.
I love the way the author explains himself along the story, he can use many types of figurative language at the same time and the reader can still have a clear idea of what the author is trying to address. I think that through this book, Jack London proved that he has an awesome writing style, because he can describe the characters, the animals and their surrounding in “White Fang” in a very interesting manner. For example, when he says: “He pointed toward the wall of darkness that pressed about them from every side. There was no suggestion of form in the utter blackness; only could been seen a pair of eyes gleaming like live coals.” He described this in such a special way that when you’re reading the book, you can easily imagine what
In “The Alchemist” the writer uses imagery and informal diction as their writing style. They give lots of details when they describe either a person in the story, the directions that the boy was given, his scenery, or even his dreams. It gives you a lot of stuff that someone could put together
It can be argued that any thoughts of Caddy end up destroying Quentin’s sense of order and replacing it with a sense of panic and urgency. Quentin’s mind lives in the past, and while there is a fair amount of attention to the present moment, much of his section consists of his thoughts (Brown 545). This attention to time is what contributes to the chaos in his mind because he looks back to his inability to stop Caddy from dirtying herself and the entire family’s honor. His mind constantly looks back to past events which remind him of the suffering he has gone through in trying to satisfy his code of honor, which only contributes to a sense of misdirection in his life. In “The Loud World of Quentin Compson”, it is noted that Faulkner purposely “enhanced the dramatic immediacy” (Ross 250) of some scenes in order to show how chaotic his mental processing becomes when Caddy is brought up. He wrote Quentin’s section in a way that would emphasize the struggle Quentin faces in trying to restore his family’s honor by ignoring punctuation and grammar, among a plethora of other methods. It is known that Quentin’s section consists of only Quentin’s narration, and it varies drastically from orderly, grammatically proper sentences to disorderly, crude sentences in order to clearly mark lines between moments and thoughts
Pulp Fiction by Quinton Tarantino falls into the genre of a Gangster film but has elements of other genres as well like Film Noir and Black Comedy. Pulp Fiction has a balance of drama and comedy along with hard to watch scenes like rape, violence, gore and heavy drug use. Tarantino’s style of movie making help make Pulp Fiction the classic it is today. The mise-en-scene, cinematography and other elements of movie, including sound effects and round characters leave us intrigued as well as content with the story structure as well as its ending.
The way he describes things makes the imagery of this story so outstanding. The author knows exactly what syntax is and uses it to his advantage. There is one sentence that was fantastically put together and it was located at the beginning of paragraph 6, "Through the headset, a robust male voice surged forth, emptying into my body." This sentence is not only well put together but it also has you feeling like you are there sitting on the hard carpeted floor with your back on the bookshelves in the dimly lit corner of the library listening with him. Another, part of his work that was astonishing was how he described the changing of weather, "I could tell, by the slowly brightening room, that it had started to snow"
‘There are…two kinds of film makers: one invents an imaginary reality; the other confronts an existing reality and attempts to understand it, criticise it…and finally, translate it into film’
For a first novel, the prose was lovely, and the mystery and alienation came through in the story that always danced over and across a line of fantasy, leaving multiple avenues to interpret parts of the story. It was intangible as ice or snow in the sun, melting and reforming.
Blood, gore, and a lot of language; you will find this is most Quentin Tarantino movies. Although, this is what makes him such a writer and director. Quentin Tarantino is not only a fantastic screenplay writer, but he also pushes the limit of intense plots of drama, and mostly violence. As a great director, who changes the world of filmmaking, Quentin Tarantino is one of the most unique directors/writers, today.
Rather than motivating Ritchie’s education, his dream to become a director caused him to lose what little focus he had in mainstream education and he was expelled from school at the age of fifteen due to drug related offences. Ritchie’s scorn for formal education extended to media as well: he worried about attending film school or courses as he didn’t want his films to be conditioned by what he learnt. Ritchie’s big fear was that his films would be ‘boring and unwatchable’. Without qualifications, Ritchie spent the next decade working blue-collar jobs; he worked in bars and spent time as a bricklayer, never staying in one profession for long. However it was a lucky break for Ritchie when a friend who directed commercials gave him his first job as a runner, propelling him back towards his dream.
There is no straightforward answer when one asks the question of: “What exactly makes a great director?”. The truth is that it can be an array of different factors, from the director having a distinctive or original way of shooting scene, to him or her having a well-written script. But what separates a great director from an iconic one, is how their films inspires not only the current, but also the new generation of filmmakers. The well-known Quentin Tarantino is one of those iconic directors. Born Quentin Jerome Tarantino on 27 March, 1963, he is arguably one of the most famous/influential modern directors of our generation to such an extent, that his name alone can sell a movie. Just as recognisable as his name, is his directing. Renowned
