Happy 57th Birthday, Quentin Tarantino! Born today in 1963 as Quentin Jerome Tarantino, this American actor and filmmaker's high school drop-out turned self-educated movie geek made good in a big way by giving him a legendary standing almost immediately.
His features are characterized by nonlinear storylines, aestheticization of violence, extended scenes of dialogue, ensemble casts, references to popular culture.
This also includes a wide variety of other films, soundtracks primarily containing songs and score pieces from the 1960s to the 1980s, alternate history, and features of neo-noir film.

Tarantino's films have garnered both critical and commercial success as well as a dedicated cult-following. He has received many industry awards, including two Academy Awards, two BAFTA Awards, four Golden Globe Awards and the Palme d'Or, and has been nominated for an Emmy and five Grammys.
In 2005, Tarantino was included on the annual Time 100 list of the most influential people in the world.
American director, writer, actor, producer, critic and film historian Peter Bogdanovich has called him "the single most influential director of his generation".
In December 2015, Tarantino received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for his contributions to the film industry.
