Reservoir Dogs
Quentin Tarantino came out of nowhere (i.e., a video store in Manhattan Beach, California) and turned Hollywood on its ear in 1992 with his explosive first feature, Reservoir Dogs.
They were perfect strangers, assembled to pull off the perfect crime. Joe has assembled them to pull off a simple heist, and has gruffly assigned them color-coded aliases (Mr. Orange, Mr. Pink, Mr. White) to conceal their identities from being known even to each other. Then their simple robbery explodes into a bloody ambush, and the ruthless killers realize one of them is a police informer. But which one? Pressure mounts, blood flows, accusations and bullets fly.
Quentin Tarantino, USA, 1992, 99 min. English spoken, Dutch subtitles.
With Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Chris Penn, Steve Buscemi.
