"Reservoir Dogs" (1992) Directed by Quentin Tarantino
“Are you gonna bark all day little doggie, or are you gonna bite?”.
9 minutes and 40 seconds into this stunning debut classic from Quentin Tarantino and all seems in order. Shooting the shit around a coffee house table are mainly sharply dressed guys in black suits discussing various topics of the day, from the meaning of Madonna’s “Like a Virgin”, the merits or otherwise of tipping and the contents of the Boss’ address book. Cue Steven Wright and his sublimely distinctive voice, “K Billy’s Super Sounds of the 70's”, and one of the most iconic movie introductions of recent history.
The first 9 minutes give no indication to the tour de force you are about to watch. A time line that jumps back and forth with dialogue to die for and a screenplay that has gone into movie history. A soundtrack with hit after hit that is brilliantly effective and takes the film to even greater heights. A twist that if you’re unfamiliar with the film will genuinely surprise you and, as with all Quentin Tarantino films, characters that are rich, layered, brilliantly written and played by some of the greatest actors of our generation.
