Background
The series was launched in 1998 with Gerald Peary's Quentin Tarantino: Interviews.[1] It was favorably reviewed by MovieMaker magazine which found a balance and depth throughout saying, "Contemporary giants like Soderbergh, Oliver Stone and John Sayles are treated with just as much esteem as legends like Wilder and John Huston."[1]
