The director's 2003 masterpiece marked the point when pared-back plotting turned into protracted pastiche

Not many filmmakers can claim to have their very own entry in the Oxford English Dictionary, but Tarantinoesque is in there for good reason. No director has seen their style aped and plagiarised the way Quentin Tarantino did after he burst onto the scene in the early 90s. Before Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, screen criminals tended to be distant and otherwordly, and their work had to be treated with moral seriousness.

Apparently unable to cut his film into a workable runtime, Tarantino was instead given licence to make a two-movie extravaganza, released six months apart. The result was a bloated four-hour tribute to grindhouse B-movies, kung-fu flicks, spaghetti westerns, blaxploitation and Bruce Lee. It featured three timelines, countless cult-hero cameos and one extended anime sequence. It should have been terrible. It was an indisputable masterpiece.
