Quentin Tarantino's retirement plan
Wednesday, 15 July 2009
Quentin Tarantino will quit the film industry when he turns 60.
The cult movie director says he will never work just for the sake of making money and will give up his career if the quality of his movies begins to suffer.
He told GQ magazine: "Directors don't get better, they get worse. When you gotta go out and make a movie to pay for the kids' private school and for the three ex-wives, don't talk to me about your artistry. It's their job. I don't want to have to watch the movie I made to pay for my pool."
Earlier this year, the 46-year-old 'Inglourious Basterds' director admitted he started working on a prequel to the bloodied action film before its release because he was convinced it would be a hit.
He said: "I have a half-written prequel ready to go if this movie's a smash.
"It's all the same. Once the Basterds get through with Europe, they could go to the South and do it to the Kluxers in the 50s. That's another story you could tell."
The highly anticipated action movie - which stars Brad Pitt, Eli Roth and Samuel L. Jackson - is about Jewish-American soldiers known as The Basterds, who are chosen to scalp and kill Nazis in France during World War II.
