And as you said, he pushes back in any sort of criticism.
know when you watch his movies it is jarring how much he uses the n-word i mean there's certain movies you go this does feel gratuitous i don't think that's an unfair criticism and i don't think rosanna arquette is unfair and criticizing it all these years later like tarantino's point is like well you took the check i'm like yeah but you can make decisions and years back be reflective and say you know what i had some issues with that or in retrospect that wasn't a right decision that's what life is having regrets living with those et cetera so i think rosanna gets perfectly intel to give her opinion i guess qt is fine to lash back and say well you took the check you have an issue with it but
It's definitely been a blemish to some of his films, and this is not the first time we've heard that criticism.
Spike Lee said this years ago, like, does this guy want to be black?
Stop using the word all the time.
But then you have Jamie Foxx's and Samuel L. Jackson's, you know, notable black actors who defended Tarantino, his use of the word in that vein.
You know, if you're making a film called Django Unchained, it's about slave owners.
I'm allowed to use that word.
I personally find it a little gratuitous at times, but he is a hell of a filmmaker, and I have loved his movies.
I have to admit that.
Why do you think it is?
I mean, I love Quentin Tarantino's movies.
They are my favorite.
He's my favorite director.
Pulp Fiction's my favorite movie.
But, you know, you have that right there, the criticism about the N-word.
You also have what was likely a pretty close relationship to Harvey Weinstein.
It does kind of feel like Quentin Tarantino skates a little bit, no?
I completely agrees as the white one is a great point.
I mean, when you look back at some of those movies in the 90s and it's a personal decade for me, I loved a lot of those films, but there's no doubt that Weinstein's imprint was all over it and specifically to Tarantino.
