Lead roles: Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette, both of whom are always outstanding in odd roles. Their work together is excellent, and each gets an extended scene with two other masters: Slater with the amazing, late Gary Oldman (in a strange scene with Oldman's strange character "Drexl Spivey" -- one for the record books), and Arquette in another long scene with the equally amazing, late James Gandolfini (Tony Soprano). There's plenty of fire. While Quentin Tarantino gets a lot of due credit for his writing of True Romance, Tony Scott deserves a lot of the credit for his time in the director’s chair. This is one of those films where I feel Tarantino was the better writer than he would have been a director. Scott had a style and flair with his movies that allowed for some impressive visuals but kept a close intimacy with the characters. Take the interrogation scene between Dennis Hopper and Christopher Walken. Scott works from a wide shot gradually cutting closer and closer into a closeup adding tension to each dialog exchange, but it also gives the actors room to work the scene. Walken gradually gets funnier while Hopper becomes more solemn. It's this unique energy Scott brings to the script that I don’t think Tarantino would have been able to pull off at that time in his career.

[39] See also [ edit ] Although Tony Scott straightened out the screenplay’s original non-linear narrative, True Romance exhibits all the Tarantino hallmarks. The key QT dialogue paradigm is here in full flower: lowlife goons engage in horrific, cold-blooded acts, but also spout incredibly clever chit-chat on subjects both ironic-mundane and ironic-profound: hamburgers + Biblical philosophy in Pulp Fiction, for instance. Parable-like personal stories come out of nowhere, along with impassioned discourses on the meaning of comic superheroes or ’70s trash exploitation filmmaking. Make that a lot of gab about ’70s trash exploitation filmmaking, Quentin Tarantino’s lifelong love. one need only contrast the opinions of, say, my colleague Ken Brown, who reviewed the old Warner Brothers Home Entertainment Blu-ray of
