#Q ORIGINAL QUESTION

Regarding the film Reservoir Dogs (1992), what awards were associated with the film, including foreign awards and film festival awards?

#E EXTERNAL EVENTS TIMELINE

January 21, 1992

Released Mentioned

Reservoir Dogs premieres at the Sundance Film Festival.

While the summary mentions it launched his career, it fails to note that the film did not win any awards at Sundance (it was 'shut out').

"It was a cult favorite and launched Tarantino's career."

May 1992

Event

Screened Out of Competition at the Cannes Film Festival.

The film generated significant buzz here, leading to international distribution deals.

September 19, 1992

Award Mentioned Error: Medium

Won the FIPRESCI International Critics' Prize at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).

The summary incorrectly states it didn't win an award. The FIPRESCI Prize is a prestigious award given at the festival.

"I do not believe it won any official award at this particular film festival."

October 1992

Award Mentioned Error: Low

Quentin Tarantino wins Best Director and Best Screenplay at the Sitges Film Festival.

The summary correctly identifies the Director win but misses the Screenplay win.

"Best Director - Quentin Tarantino"

October 1992

Award Mentioned Error: High

Benoît Poelvoorde (Man Bites Dog) wins Best Actor at the Sitges Film Festival, NOT Harvey Keitel.

Harvey Keitel did not win Best Actor at Sitges. He won 'Best International Actor' at the Sant Jordi Awards (also in Barcelona) the following year.

"Best Actor - Harvey Keitel"

October 9, 1992

Released

US Theatrical Release.

November 1992

Award Error: Medium

Won the Bronze Horse for Best Film at the Stockholm International Film Festival.

This is a major festival win (Best Picture equivalent) that the summary omitted.

February 1993

Award Error: Low

Won the Critic's Award at the Yubari International Fantastic Film Festival.

The summary mentions a Japanese award (Best Foreign Film) which likely refers to the Japanese Professional Movie Awards (Nichipro), but the Yubari win is also significant.

March 27, 1993

Award Mentioned Error: High

Steve Buscemi wins Best Supporting Male at the Independent Spirit Awards.

The summary omits the actual WIN for Steve Buscemi and the nomination for Best Director, only mentioning the First Feature nomination.

"Best First Feature - Nominated"

April 1994

Award Mentioned

Won Best Foreign Film at the 3rd Japanese Professional Movie Awards.

This fact is correct.

"Japanese Professional Movie Awards: Best Foreign Film - Awarded"
