Quentin Jerome Tarantino is an American film director, screenwriter, producer, and actor. His films are characterized by nonlinear storylines, dark humor, aestheticization of violence, extended scenes of dialogue, ensemble casts, references to popular culture and a wide variety of other films, eclectic soundtracks primarily containing songs and score pieces from the 1960s to the 1980s, alternate history, and features of neo-noir film.

He began his career as an independent filmmaker with the release of "Reservoir Dogs" in 1992, a crime thriller film which was funded by money from the sale of his screenplay "True Romance" (1993). Empire magazine hailed "Reservoir Dogs" as the "Greatest Independent Film of All Time". His second film, "Pulp Fiction" (1994), a crime comedy, was a major success among critics and audiences.

In 2003, Tarantino delivered "Kill Bill: Volume 1", a stylized "revenge flick" in the cinematic traditions of kung fu films and Japanese martial arts; Volume 2 followed in 2004.

"Avatar" (marketed as James Cameron's Avatar) is a 2009 American epic science fiction film directed, written, produced, and co-edited by James Cameron.
