Movie Haiku:Revenge fantasy. Rich admires the way Tarantino takes movie mythology & strips it down to pure essence. Jan agrees that many individual scenes have technical beauty (especially the anime), but was often bored. Note to women: Don’t worry. There’s a lot of “blood,” but it’s completely fake & totally stylized.
