Su libro ms personal: un viaje ntimo por sus pelculas favoritas, relatado con una voz inconfundible. Probablemente, Quentin Tarantino sea uno de los mayores cineastas de la historia, pero de lo que no hay atisbo de duda es de que estamos hablando del espectador que mejor puede contagiar su pasin entusiasta por las pelculas que ha visto. Ahora, por fin llega el libro con el que tantos aos soaron l y sus seguidores. En Meditaciones de cine, Tarantino analiza desde los puntos de vista ms inslitos y con su particular conocimiento enciclopdico varias pelculas clave del cine norteamericano de los setenta, todas ellas vistas en su ms tierna infancia (de las ms violentas a las ms trridas), as como revisitadas compulsivamente. El resultado es una obra tan rigurosa y reflexiva como juguetona y entretenida. Meditaciones de cine es, a la vez, crtica cinematogrfica, teora del cine, reportaje literario y unas memorias formidables, a la altura de clsicos del gnero como los de Hitchcock y Truffaut o Luis Buuel. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The long-awaited first work of nonfiction from the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Once Upon a Time in Hollywood a deliriously entertaining, wickedly intelligent cinema book as unique and creative as anything by Quentin Tarantino. In addition to being among the most celebrated of contemporary filmmakers, Quentin Tarantino is possibly the most joyously infectious movie lover alive. For years he has touted in interviews his eventual turn to writing books about films. Now, with Cinema Speculation, the time has come, and the results are everything his passionate fans--and all movie lovers--could have hoped for. Organized around key American films from the 1970s, all of which he first saw as a young moviegoer at the time, this book is as intellectually rigorous and insightful as it is rollicking and entertaining. At once film criticism, film theory, a feat of reporting, and wonderful personal history, it is all written in the singular voice recognizable immediately as QT's and with the rare perspective about cinema possible only from one of the greatest practitioners of the artform ever.
