Four Rooms (1995)

Each of four directors tackle 1/4 of this quirky film. Tim Roth is the strand that holds the story together.


A new bellhop on his first day on the job on New Year's Eve is called to four different rooms. At each room he is asked to do things that are expressly forbidden either by his job description or by the law.

What is surprising about the film - which resembles more a collection of short films or four TV episodes than it does a feature - is that all four of the episodes are great. I expected Tarantino's to the best (which it was), but the other three were just as hilarious and suspenseful.
