Brian Trenchard-Smith on

Django Unchained

Released 2012
Distributor The Weinstein Company

Quentin Tarantino continues his revisionist history of the world with this kinetic revenge saga which is on track to become the highest-grossing western ever made. While working on a book about Italian director Sergio Corbucci (The Great Silence, Django), Tarantino was inspired to embark on a spaghetti-western influenced project of his own, which he regarded as more of a “southern”. His usual bravura cinematics and eclectic musical choices are on display in abundance, resulting in one more operatic, pop-culture infused instant classic.
