Quentin Tarantino vs. The Coen Brothers (Kill/Save)

[horacethegrey]

The Coens for me. I've not seen all their films, but I've been more impressed with their work than with Tarantino's. I like their dialogue better and they're not reliant on stylish violence the way Quentin is. In fact I'd say they do a good job of not glorifying the violence found in their films. And with the Coens you have versatility to take into account. I like how they can go from a broad comedy like Oh Brother! Where Art Thou? to a violent thrillers like No Country for Old Men. Tarantino seems content with his niche of making big budget versions of grindhouse cinema, which he's quite good at though.

I'll save the Coen brothers. It's another tough one for me though.
