So whilst we wait for Jamie Foxx and Christoph Waltz to don their cowboy hits and ride out to meet Leonard DiCaprio, we've put together a list of 10 things you probably didn't know about Quentin Jerome Tarantino to help pass the time.

There’s good reason why True Romance‘s Clarence is such a huge Elvis Presley fan – so much so that the character admits he’d like to screw the world’s most famous musician in the film’s first five minutes, apparently channelling the deep dark desires of his creator. “About eighteen-years-old, I got waaaay into rockabilly music,” Tarantino once revealed during an interview. “I just fancied myself.
