Crow

A cunning, obsessive collector of culture's darkest gems.

Quentin Tarantino is fiercely intelligent, deeply referential, and operates with a magpie-like compulsion to collect and repurpose everything from spaghetti westerns to exploitation cinema into something brilliantly his own. Like a crow, he is adaptable, street-smart, and fascinated by the dark and shiny — his films are steeped in violence, wit, and pop-culture alchemy. His notorious foot fetish, his passionate monologues about film history, and his outsider-auteur path from video store clerk to Hollywood legend all point to a creature of intense, unconventional intelligence who thrives on the edges of polite society.
