Abstract

El cine de Tarantino recurre constantemente a la violencia, pero lo hace tomando en cuenta ciertos elementos que la justifican a ojos del espectador. Aunque sus protagonistas hacen uso de ella, asumen que deben limitarla según recomienda la legítima defensa o la merecida venganza, diferenciándose de su uso indiscriminado por parte de los antagonistas. Puesto que la realidad resulta desagradable, Tarantino reescribe la historia como el Dios vengador que impone su justicia sobre el mundo. Para que esto sea posible, la violencia aparece como un instrumento que construye una nueva realidad que redime a aquellos que lo merecen.
Tarantino’s movies constantly resort to violence, but they do so taking into account certain elements that justify it in spectator’s gaze. Although his protagonists use violence, they assume that they must limit it as recommended by legitimate self-defense or deserved revenge, as opposed to its indiscriminate use by the antagonists. Since reality is unpleasant, tarantino rewrites history as the avenging God who imposes his justice on the world. to make this possible, violence appears as an instrument that builds a new reality that redeems those who deserve it.
