    Speaking of feet, in my last movie, there was this new assistant director who was only there for a day and we spent that whole day shooting the “heels touch the ground” scene. Of course, we used the footage for the movie, but it’s so weird that nobody seem to know who he is, and he never showed up on set again.

    But now that I think about it, he DOES kind of look like Tarantino…

    Tarantino will just make some of the best movies you ever watched just to film someone’s feet or say the nword.

      His movies are fantastic, so I support giving him as long a leash as he wants.

    Actually the story goes different. There was no foot tequila scene planned, but Salma Hayek improvised it. It’s possible that with this scene, Salma Hayek started it all for Tarantino and his feet obsession

      Pulp Fiction came out 2 years earlier and started off with a long conversation about how sexual foot rubs are.

    I mean I’d write a scene where my character was sat on by a black bbw if it were my movie.

    I hate Tarantino’s movies (Resevoir Dogs and Dusk Til Dawn being the exceptions) but I respect this level of being unashamed

    He loves to go on about the differences between directors and writer-directors.

    Seems pretty obvious from here, Mr. Tarantino

    I wonder how many times he could have gone “And then she makes me suck her feet again” in the script before someone intervened.

      I … I don’t get it. Is it Toes instead of toast? I read this sentence and know it’s funny, but I cannot for the life of me decipher why.

        I dunno, all the slurs and gratuitous feet shots get old. Yea I enjoy some of his movies, but scenes like his “dead [slur] storage” bit in Pulp Fiction get to be really grating.

        It was cathartic to see him get immediately blown to pieces in Django Unchained, and seeing a theater full of Nazis getting machinegunned will always hold a special place in my heart

          I don’t disagree, but in pulp fiction the use of these slurs lends to a pretty accurate portrayal of criminal underworld, and people generally, being very casually racist/homophobic in LA/Long Beach in the late 80s and early 90s. I grew up in that area in that time, and it felt pretty spot on in that movie.
