The screenplays and films of Quentin Tarantino raise profound comic and ethical dilemmas. Developing ideas from Lacanian psychoanalysis, the authors explore ethical issues in relation to Tarantino′s work, postmodernity and recent cultural theory. They argue that Tarantino′s texts provide a provocative and telling contribution to theorized accounts of contemporary culture.
