The director, who still shoots on film and refuses to screen anything digitally at the New Beverly, is well known for having worked at a video store in his younger years \u2014 and, as evidenced by a new interview (below), he still prefers the brick-and-mortar experience to streaming sites like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.indiewire.com\/t\/netflix\/\" id=\"auto-tag_netflix\">Netflix<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<aside class=\"pmc-related-link read-more\">\n\t\t\t<strong class=\"pmc-related-type\">Read More:<\/strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.indiewire.com\/2017\/11\/quentin-tarantino-charles-manson-movie-plot-details-tom-cruise-brad-pitt-1201899355\/\" title=\"Quentin Tarantino\u2019s New Movie: First Plot Details Reveal the Role Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt are Circling\">Quentin Tarantino\u2019s New Movie: First Plot Details Reveal the Role Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt are Circling<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t<\/aside>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI\u2019m not on Netflix, so I can\u2019t even tell you exactly how that works,\u201d he says. \u201cBut even if you just have all the movie channels in your [TV] package \u2014 and that\u2019s something I do have \u2014 so you hit the guide and you go down the list, and you hit there and you watch something or you tape something, and maybe you never get around to watching it or you actually do watch it, and then maybe you watch it for 10 minutes or 20 minutes, and maybe you start doing something else, and \u2018Nah, I\u2019m not really into this.\u2019 And then that\u2019s kind of where we\u2019ve fallen into.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<aside class=\"pmc-related-link read-more\">\n\t\t\t<strong class=\"pmc-related-type\">Read More:<\/strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.indiewire.com\/2017\/11\/quentin-tarantino-sony-pictures-produce-distribute-his-ninth-film-1201897876\/\" title=\"Quentin Tarantino Chooses Sony Pictures to Produce and Distribute His Ninth Feature Film\">Quentin Tarantino Chooses Sony Pictures to Produce and Distribute His Ninth Feature Film<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t<\/aside>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not feeling committed to the movie you\u2019ve chosen was less of a problem at actual stores, the \u201cHateful Eight\u201d director argues. \u201cThere was a different quality to the video store.
