6 hours in our oldest pub - Quentin Tarantino's love for early 90s Nottingham

Tucked away in page 12 of a Nottingham Post, on 21st January 1993, are some cinema listings. "First-time director Quentin Tarantino dazzles with stylish and controversial heist movie.... Funny, clever, and very violent."

Those who took note and went along to the Broadway cinema were treated to a showing of cult classic Reservoir Dogs. Some of you will have fallen in love with the director's style - little did anyone know that Tarantino would come to love the city back.

The 59-year-old director is a huge influence on modern crime and drama films, has received dozens of awards over his career, and worked with superstar actors like Samuel L. Jackson, John Travolta and Leonardo DiCaprio. But he's quite enjoyed trading Hollywood for Robin Hood in the past.
