Django Unchained: Quentin Tarantino's Fairy Tale Disguised as a Spaghetti Western

Django Unchained just might be Quentin Tarantino’s bloodiest movie (although Kill Bill would like a word), but deep down, it’s really a fairy tale. When Tarantino burst onto the indie scene with Reservoir Dogs, he brought the French New Wave’s cool, slick, Parisian subversions of the American crime film back to America. He reinterpreted a foreign market’s reinterpretation of a classic American movie genre.
