Quentin Tarantino ready to switch from crappy 70s-style violence ... to crappy 70s-style erotica!

"The quirky director, a devotee of '70s European nudie flicks, says he wants to make 'a cool sex movie'"

I might even get into this, which is absolutely a natural fit for Quentin. I'm surprised it took him this long to realize he was ready to be the new Radley Metzger, who was a guy not unlike Tarantino himself. Here's what I once wrote about Metzger: "Metzger himself was a serious film buff, ala Peter Bogdanovich. He also had a good education, and a grounding in legitimate theater, making him one of the most intelligent and cultured men ever to make fuck films. His own films are pretty much in the mainstream tradition of European art films, except that they exhibit a different balance between sex and art, sex being raised to the forefront and awarded the position of raison d'etre in Radley's films. His medium-core "Lickerish Quartet," which he also wrote, is an homage to Pirandello. I would venture a guess that he's probably the only pornographer who can even spell "Pirandello," let alone quote him.
