Quentin Tarantino’s inspirations often come from surprisingly early experiences. He recently told Italian host Fabio Fazio that the very first movie he ever saw was the 1967 spy film Deadlier Than the Male.

At just five years old, Tarantino was captivated by the film, especially a scene where the female characters kidnap and imprison a man.
