Quentin Tarantino teases retirement

<p dir="ltr">Quentin Tarantino just might have found his last movie to direct. </p> <p dir="ltr">According to <em>The Hollywood Reporter</em>, the legendary filmmaker will be directing <em>The Movie Critic</em>, a script he wrote and is in the midst of putting it into production.</p> <p dir="ltr">There are not many details known about the movie, but according to the report, the movie will feature a female lead and will be set in Los Angeles in the 1970s, which has led to speculation about the subject of the film being the late film critic, Pauline Kael. </p> <p dir="ltr">The filmmaker’s last movie was always set to be a special one, with him having well-documented respect for Ms Kael, so it makes sense that she would be the focus of his last film. </p> <p dir="ltr">Tarantino has long been considering his next movie, pretty much since his Oscar winning <em>Once Upon a Time in Hollywood</em> in 2019. </p> <p dir="ltr">He spoke to broadcast journalist Chris Wallace about sounding out of touch as the film industry rapidly changes around him; Tarantino explained, “Well, it's... I've been doing it for a long time. I've been doing it for 30 years, and it's.. it's time to wrap up the show. </p> <p dir="ltr">“Like I said, I'm an entertainer. I want to leave you wanting more you know, and not just work and I don't want to work to diminishing returns.</p> <p dir="ltr">“I don't want to be... one, I don't want to become this old man who's out of touch when already I'm feeling a bit like an old man out of touch when it comes to the current movies that are out right now. And that's what happens.”</p> <p dir="ltr">It seems as though a brand new story is where Tarantino will end his directorial career.  </p> <p><span id="docs-internal-guid-b246f25a-7fff-6ec0-4501-41a66523bd46"></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><em>Image credit: Getty</em></p>
