Tarantino’s self-proclaimed ‘final’ film will be shoot in his hometown of Los Angeles, California. The movie, titled The Movie Critic, will follow a man who “really lived, but was never really famous, and he used to write movie reviews for a p*rno rag.”

“I love shooting in California. I started directing movies here and it is only fitting that I shoot my final motion picture in the cinema capital of the world,” Tarantino told Deadline.

“There is nothing like shooting in my hometown; the crews are the best I’ve ever worked with, and the locations are amazing. The producers and I are thrilled to be making #10 in Los Angeles.”
