TRUE ROMANCE BY Quentin Tarantino
True romance is a film released in 1993. Written by Quentin Tarantino and directed by Tony Scott, this film offers us a modern version of Bonnie and Clyde for two hours. Love, crime and violence are the order of the day. We thus recognize the Tarantino touch although he had sold his film to Tony Scott who moreover did not change the script much, in order to be able to release the film Reservoir Dogs (which I advise you) from a commercial point of view at the time of its release was a disaster. Although it was very well received by critics, the film's extreme violence was criticized. Throughout the film we are faced with an extraordinary scenario, a fabulous staging, a great dialogue and crazy characters. The cast is also fabulous. We find Christian Slater in the skin of Clarance Worley and Patricia Arquette in that of Alabama Whitman. The two of them take us on an adventure full of violence, humor and love. True Romance although directed by Tony Scott, is a personal film for Tarantino as it was inspired by his work at the video club to give shape and life to his character who works in a comic book store. True Romance has thus become a cult film in the thriller-romantic genre. We can see this in a cult scene from the film, "The Sicilians and the Moors", which presents us with a violent scene, with a touch of humor, long dialogue, blood, torture and blackmail. A mixture reminiscent of Kill bill. So we can say that True romance is the allegory of romance between Tarantino and Cinema itself.
