The Cinema Through Tarantino's Eyes: A Personal Education
Growing up in 1960s Los Angeles, my childhood movie experiences weren't exactly typical. At seven years old, my mother and stepfather took me to see decidedly adult fare at the Tiffany Theater on Sunset Strip. I vividly remember watching "Where's Poppa?" and howling with laughter as George Segal, dressed in a gorilla suit, got punched in the groin by Ruth Gordon. These weren't children's films-they were my education in adult life. The movie theater became my anthropological field study. Like a child version of "Grizzly Man," I observed grown-ups in their natural habitat through the flickering light of the silver screen. I learned the unwritten rules of cinema: don't ask questions during the movie (save them for the car ride home), laugh when everyone else laughs, and absorb everything. I witnessed both the joy of communal movie-watching and its ugliness, like audiences mocking gay characters. These formative experiences weren't just entertainment-they were shaping my understanding of storytelling, human behavior, and the power of film to transport an audience. What began as childhood fascination evolved into lifelong passion. The movies weren't just showing me stories-they were teaching me how to tell them. Each frame, each cut, each performance was a lesson in what would eventually become my own cinematic language.
