Cult director Quentin Tarantino (60) has revealed details of his latest work for the first time. The filmmaker behind legendary cinema hits like "Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood" (2019) or "Django Unchained" (2012) said yesterday evening in Paris: "I have the script for what will be my last film will be terminated". This is reported by "France 24". Tarantino added, "I think we'll probably start filming in the fall."

The legendary director also confirmed the title of the film, which had previously been reported by US trade journals. "The Movie Critic" will take place in 1977, and thus at the peak of so-called New Hollywood cinema, when filmmakers such as Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, Steven Spielberg and George Lucas staged classic cinema hits that are still appreciated today.

Contrary to previous reports, however, the famous film critic Pauline Kael (1919-2001) will not be the focus of the action in "The Movie Critic", as Tarantino explained in Paris. Rather, according to his own repeated statement, his last film was not dedicated to a specific film critic.
