Quentin Tarantino Names the Best Character He's Ever Written

Gina Carbone
Who would you pick as Quentin Tarantino's best character? He's the guy who wrote all the misters of "Reservoir Dogs," the lovebirds (plus Floyd, who smoked the second page of the letter) of "True Romance," the $5 shake-loving criminals of "Pulp Fiction," plus everyone in "Natural Born Killers," "From Dusk Till Dawn," "Kill Bill," "Inglourious Basterds," "Django Unchained," "The Hateful Eight," etc.
Quentin Tarantino recently spoke to a sold-out crowd at a film festival in Jerusalem, and he named Christoph Waltz's Oscar-winning role of Hans Landa in the irritatingly spelled "Inglourious Basterds" as the best character he's ever written.
"I'm looking for that take where an actor just kicks into something — actors describe it as flying, they're not them anymore, it's the reason they become actors," QT told the crowd, via Screen Daily. "Landa is the best character I've ever written and maybe the best I ever will write. I didn't realize [when I was first writing him] that he was a linguistic genius. He's probably one of the only ***** in history who could speak perfect Yiddish."
