Times Watched: 1
My Experience: Tarantino’s first movie is exceptional in its use of subtlety, symbolism, purposeful dialogue, and brutally honest character motivation. Almost the entire movie takes place in a warehouse where they all agree to meet after the heist (that goes terribly wrong). Despite being low on action, the movie is engaging and I was racking my brain the whole time to figure out who the informant was. What a debut.
Wracking, you mean.
I’ve seen this movie many times and I dig it just as much each time. It was ruined for me before I watched it the first time, though, so I never did get to see it without the benefit of hindsight.
