This is juuust about as good as getting a peak at Thurston Moore’s record collection or hearing Michael Jordan speak candidly about the current class of the NBA. Quentin Tarantino sat down and rattled off his twenty favorite films. There are, of course, some very surprising choices (including two Keanu films) and some that are not so surprising (I mean, everyone loves Shaun of the Dead). I’m doing OK with having seen 10/20 out of his choices, including the Japanese flick he picked for his favorite.

And, of course, Inglourious Basterds comes out this weekend. I’ll be on vacation, but I can probably find a way to squeeze it in.
