Le Regard Libre N° 64 - Ivan Garcia
Quentin Tarantino special report
A story of revenge, sword-fighting and hitmen, all set against a particularly Japanese, or at least Oriental, backdrop. Kill Bill places actress Uma Thurman on the road to revenge, recalling the great hours of Asian cinema.
The years 2003 and 2004 saw the emergence of a spectacular cinematic work. Firstly, by virtue of its length of around four hours, forcing the director to divide his feature-length film into two volumes. Secondly, by virtue of its heroine, played by Uma Thurman, who embarks on a quest for vengeance. Much has already been said and written about Kill Bill, Volumes 1 and 2. However, we feel it necessary to take the reader on a tour of the many traces of Asian cinema that punctuate this feature-length film.
