Four Rooms
Leaving February 28
•
1h 37m
Directed by Quentin Tarantino, Alexandre Rockwell, Robert Rodriguez, and Allison Anders • 1995 • United States
Starring Tim Roth, Jennifer Beals, Madonna
Four directors—including Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez—contributed to this outrageous anthology comedy, which has the goofball freneticism of a live-action cartoon. It’s New Year’s Eve at the Hotel Mon Signor in Los Angeles and hapless, newly hired bellhop Ted (Tim Roth, channelling Jerry Lewis) is in for a wild first night on the job as a coterie of oddball guests—including unruly children, a loudmouth film director (Tarantino, parodying himself), and a coven of witches (led by a black-leather-clad Madonna) in desperate need of a man—check in for a New Years to remember.
