Quentin Tarantino dances to the beat of his own tune, and he wasn't afraid to let Channer 4 News' reporter, Krishnan Guru-Murthy know this when the latter tried to engage him in a conversation about violence in movies.

The acclaimed director was being interviewed in London for the British Premiere of his Oscar nominated picture 'Django Unchained,' a film that depicts american slavery at its best accompanied by a heavy dose of Tarantino violence, when Guru-Murthy asked him about his opinion on the relationship between film violence and real violence, and Tarantino went ballistic.

And when Guru-Murthy keept pushing, Tarantino broke down and "shut [his] butt down."

In the end, the reporter switched gears, Tarantino lowered his tone and they finished the interview amicably. Later on, Guru-Murthy told the Daily Telegraph this was the first time something like this happened to him during an interview.
