Should we even count "From Dusk Till Dawn." Technically, Robert Rodriguez directed the movie. Quentin only co-wrote (if that, I heard the other guy Kurtman or something like that did the majority of the writing because Quentin was already working on Jackie Brown) and acted in the movie. Personally, I voted for Pulp Fiction. Not only his best movie but one of the finest movies of the 20th century. I could watch the final scene in the diner all day. Watching Sam Jackson perform, talking to Tim Roth is like watching Itzhak Perlman play his violin or Pablo Picasso paint. Its art. The fact that he was robbed of his Oscar for the performance was and is a travesty second only to Oscar that wasn't bestowed upon Peter O'Toole for Lawrence of Arabia. Sam deserved that Oscar.
