‘Arkansas’ review: an unapologetically derivative love letter to Quentin Tarantino

Arriving on Amazon Prime Video earlier this year – and renewed this week for a second season – Hunters immediately caused controversy.

Zoe Bell — the veteran stuntwoman and longtime Quentin Tarantino collaborator — has signed with CAA. The New Zealand native began her career working with Tarantino, going on to work with him both as a second unit director and stunt coordinator.

Sure, the world is seemingly falling apart, as a global pandemic still continues to wreak havoc all over the planet. And in the US, we’ve decided to also add a bit of civil unrest and a Presidential Election to the mix, just to spice things up.

It would probably not be fair to call Jay Sebring “forgotten.” After all, the ‘60s Hollywood stylist was so popular that he served as an inspiration for “Shampoo,” the 1975 satire directed by Hal Ashby and starring Warren Beatty.

You would be wrong.

Abrams.The club, which is now an institution in London, was founded in 2011 by award-winning filmmaker Liam Saint-Pierre (“The Last Storm”) and veteran projectionist Umit Mesut.

In interviews with filmmakers, there’s a pretty common question that is lobbed at some of the more accomplished artists—what is your best film that no one saw? Obviously, every filmmaker (outside of a few rare examples like Quentin Tarantino) has a film or two that they take huge amounts of pride in but, for whatever reason, largely went unseen by the moviegoing public.

There’s a philosophy for athletes and creative folk, especially, where you want to quit while you’re ahead so that you can go out on top. Some athletes retire after winning the title at the end of the season.
