So you're saying that all films that have a lengthy conversation in them are narrative nightmares? I'm sorry, but that's absurd. Since you're a huge fan of The Matrix, I think that is being a bit hypocritical because in The Matrix Reloaded there are several scenes of lengthy dialouge. Are you saying that that's a narrative nightmare? Is the brutally long conversation between The Architect and Neo part of a narrative nightmare? With the sound off that would be the most boring scene in the history of cinema. I think not, and I don't think that you think that either. My point earlier wasn't that Tarantino's films always work without dialouge, but rather that Tarantino can create scenes that are great because of their dialouge, or that they are great because of the storytelling ability of Quentin Tarantino. The scene between Vincent and Mia at the restaurant develops character as well as provides comedy, entertainment, and a bit of suspense (Mia talking about Marcellus throwing the guy out of the bulding). The dialogue is sharp, whitty, interesting, and just plain fun to listen to. They go from discussions about five dollar shakes, to Mia's pilot episode of Fox Force Five, to why Marcellus threw the guy out of the building. It's just a truly captivating scene, and to kick it all off a stylish and fun dance sequence with a snazzy tune to boot. |
