Video Archives was a video rental store located in Manhattan Beach, California , and later moved to Hermosa Beach, California , owned and managed by Lance Lawson and Rick Humbert.[1] Filmmakers Quentin Tarantino ,[2] [3] Roger Avary [4] and Daniel Snyder [5] worked there before becoming successful in the film industry. The store was also frequented by screenwriters Josh Olson , Jeff Maguire , John Langley , and Danny Strong .
Video Archives closed in 1995, and Tarantino purchased its video inventory and rebuilt the store in his home.[6]
In a 1994 interview with Rolling Stone , Tarantino called it "the best video store in the Los Angeles area", saying "Video Archives is like LA.’s answer to the Cahiers du Cinéma ".[7] In 1992, Roger Avary described it as "less a video store than a film school [...] we'd have these intense, eight-hour-long arguments about cinema. Customers would walk in and they'd get into it. It became this big clubhouse of film making -- and probably the best film-making experience anyone could ever get."[8]
Podcast [ edit ]
In June 2021, Tarantino announced plans to start a podcast with Avary. The podcast is named after Video Archives, and features the directors and a guest examining a film which could have been offered for rental at the store.[9] The podcast premiered on July 19, 2022.[10] [11]
