“I’ve never gone to film school. I went to see movies.’ Quentin Tarantino was born on March 27, 1963 in Knoxville, Tennessee. The director, who will present his new book «Cinema speculation» (La nave di Teseo) at the Mondadori Duomo bookshop in Milan on 7 April, is celebrating his 60th birthday today.
