QT 1
These are the movies that were shown at the QT Film fest one in 1997. Quentin Tarantino screens some of his favorite films from his private collection of reels. These fims have generally influenced his film making. When you watch these films you can see where QT got much of his inspiration. I was not fortunate enough to attend the festival but have tried to watch as many of these films as I could find. Being a huge QT fan I have enjoyed the journey of finding and screening these films on my own.
