I remember this anti Tarantino site from a few years ago. I’ve never seen COF. I had to search for the similarities in that video. My position is this, if you’ve seen one gangster/ robbery movie you’ve seen em’ all. There are very few exceptions. Tarantino may have watched that film and then forgot about it when he made Dogs. Although, I doubt it because COF shows a botched robbery taking place. Dogs shows what happens after a botched robbery. In QT’s version we only know what happens through dialogue. The effect is astonishing. If he did steal from this movie then I see no reason why he would not have admitted it. He admits to “stealing” from lots of other films! Most directors steal from other people. It’s not a unique phenomenon.
QT’s greatest talent is his ability to give new life to overused stories and genres. He has a talent for looking and presenting something we’ve seen a million times before in a new way.
