My Best Friend's Birthday (1987)


A drama by Quentin Tarantino.
A young man tries to do nice things for his friend on his birthday, but nothing works out.
This is Tarantino through a lo-fi black metal filter. It's disjointed and incomplete. There are classic rock songs and attempts at camera syncopation and non-linear plot, but just like the friend's good wishes, it doesn't work out. It is, however, really cool to see Quentin's first film. I'm rating this adequate because I swore that the director would never get a lower rating and I stand by that promise.
