Hi, I’m currently doing a study of the representation of women in Quentin Tarantino films. In particular, I’m focusing on the theme of female empowerment which is notable in Kill Bill Vol. 1 & 2 and Jackie Brown. During my research I’ve found that Tarantino’s presentation of female empowerment is somewhat paradoxical as the narrative tends to be more male driven and female characters seem to have a dependency on male characters (i.e. Jackie Brown and Max Cherry, Beatrix and Bill).
Any comments on this would be appreciated.

As much as you’d like to think your homework is Frontpage News, I’ve had to move it to this section where it belongs! Why don’t you search within these forums and you’ll find quite a few posts on male/female empowerment within QT’s films.
