The film industry welcomed Quentin Tarantino's neo-noir movie glamour with open arms. With his debut film release in 1992, he released Reservoir Dogs, a film about six strange men sent on a heist frenzy. Tarantino received his real praise with Pulp Fiction, starring Uma Thurman, Samuel L. Jackson and John Travolta. After the movie released in 1994, Tarantino won an academy award for Best Screenplay. His style, even today, is built on the aesthetic of violence and long sequences of dialogue.
