Reservoir Dogs

A closer look at the story

A group of criminals comes together to rob a jewellery warehouse. The job goes horribly wrong: the police turn up so fast that the survivors become convinced one of them is an informer. At the warehouse chosen as their rendezvous, tension builds between the veteran Mr. White, the newcomer Mr. Orange, the dangerous parolee Mr. Blonde, Mr. Pink, who never stops complaining, and Nice Guy Eddie. The story moves back and forth between the aftermath of the robbery and the days when it was planned. Quentin Tarantino is writer and director of this 99-minute 1992 film, which stars Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen and Steve Buscemi in a hard-edged crime thriller.
