Sin City is celebrating its 15th anniversary today. The big screen adaptation of the series of comic-books designed and written by Frank Miller was officially co-produced by the latter and Robert Rodriguez (A Night in Hell, Planet Terror, Alita: Battle Angel).

Recall that Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez are the two directors of the Grindhouse diptych: the first signed Death Boulevard while the second was behind the camera for Planet Terror. Finally, note that Tarantino played under the direction of Rodriguez in 1996, for the feature film Une nuit en enfer.
