BWW Review: THE HATEFUL EIGHT is Violent, Captivating, Quintessential Tarantino
by Matt Tamanini
- Dec 21, 2015

While the theatre is no stranger to violence or profanity, it is his legendary ability to create compelling, but bizarre characters that has led me to say in print and on podcasts that if the 52-year-old writer and director had been born a few decades earlier, Tarantino could have been one of America's greatest playwrights, alongside Williams, O'Neill, Miller, Stoppard, and Mamet.
