What the hell!?! Tarantino hanging his hat? Quentin Tarantino seemingly knows when he should stop making movie. As his latest directorial effort, "Django Unchained", gets closer to hit theaters, Tarantino hints that he's already planning to retire from filmmaking probably after his tenth movie.
"I just don't want to be an old-man filmmaker. I want to stop at a certain point," Tarantino tells Playboy. "Directors don't get better as they get older. Usually the worst films in their filmography are those last four at the end. I am all about my filmography, and one bad film f***s up three good ones..."
The "Pulp Fiction" helmer goes on explaining why he might want to give up his directing career at relatively young age, "When directors get out-of-date, it's not pretty. I'm on a journey that needs to have an end and not be about me trying to get another job. I want this artistic journey to have a climax. I want to work toward something."
Hinting that he might stop making movie after his 10th pic, the 49-year-old director says, "You stop when you stop, but in a fanciful world, 10 movies in my filmography would be nice." He adds, "I've made seven. If I have a change of heart, if I come up with a new story, I could come back. But if I stop at 10, that would be okay as an artistic statement."
