If the last few days have taught us anything at all, then it is this: if you want Quentin Tarantino to open up about anything, invite him on to a podcast called The Church of Tarantino. This is what happened recently, and the slew of new information offered up has been remarkable.

Thanks to the podcast appearance, we know which of his movies he likes the best (Inglourious Basterds), why he didn’t make The Movie Critic (it would have been too easy) and who the best director is (him, along with David Fincher). And now comes the most exciting news of all – there will soon be a Tarantino West End play. Tarantino told the podcast that “the play is all written. It is absolutely the next thing I’m going to do. We’ll start the ball rolling on it in January … It’s probably going to take up a year and a half to two years of my life.”
