Quentin Tarantino has announced that he will shoot "in the fall" his tenth feature film, which he plans as the last of his career. The 60-year-old American director also gave some indications about this film, entitled "The movie critic", which should once again be a tribute to the cinema of the 1960s/1970s.

The cult American director Quentin Tarantino announced Wednesday that he plans to shoot "in the fall" his tenth film, scheduled to be the ultimate of his career. "I have finished the script of what will be my last film," said the director of Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill or Inglourious Basterds, interviewed in Paris on the occasion of the release of his new essay "Cinema Speculations" (Flammarion) by the general delegate of the Cannes Film Festival, Thierry Frémaux. "I imagine I'll probably shoot it in the fall," he added, adding that all the rumors that may have been circulating about this film were just speculation.

A story that will take place in 1977

Entitled The movie critic, the film will take place in 1977, he simply said. It "is not devoted to a journalist critic of cinema" and "is not a biopic of Pauline Kael", critical figure of the New Yorker who died in 2001, as some media had recently evoked.

A director whose films are full of cinephile references, Tarantino, 60, already paid tribute to the American cinema of the late 1960s and early 1970s that he loves in his ninth and latest film, Once Upon a Time In... Hollywood (2019).

He has repeatedly said he wants to stop his career once he has made ten films (counting as one the two volumes of Kill Bill), further fueling the expectations of his fans on this upcoming opus.
