Uma Thurman and Daryl Hannah started in the Kill Bill films together. They were foes on screen, and when the cameras stopped rolling, that didn't change. The producers even had to hire a staff member to keep the feuding actresses apart at the hotel and the after-parties. Talk about being dedicated.
Tarantino wrote the part of a hitman, Jules Winnfield specifically for Jackson. He really got into the role, and he came up with the character's hairstyle on his own. Also, he wrote most of the fictitious Bible verses that he quotes in the film.
Tarantino must really love this Honda Civic because it appeared in three of his films. In Pulp Fiction, Bruce Willis hits Ving Rhames with it. In Jackie Brown, Pam Grier drives it. It even makes a cameo in Kill Bill: Volume 2. This car is a star.
In Kill Bill: Volume 1, after the Bride defeats Crazy 88, O-Ren Ishii tells her that she hoped that she saved her energy. He lets her know that if she didn't, she wouldn't last five minutes. The fight between the two lasts 4 minutes and 59 seconds. Talk about continuity.
This was one of Tarantino's most popular movies, but he won't say what the title means. At one time, he claimed that he heard it when he was at the video store and a customer mispronounced Louis Malle's Au revoir les enfants; however, while working there, this film wasn't available. We may never know what it means.
Many times, the actors and their characters have more in common than you think. The horse that Jamie Fox rides in Django Unchained is actually his. He received it as a gift many years earlier, and he and the horse knew each other well.
Quentin Tarantino is best friends with a fellow filmmaker, Robert Rodriguez. They even helped each other out on their projects. Robert directed parts of Pulp Fiction, and Tarantino guest-directed a scene in Sin City. Best friends working together. How sweet.
Tarantino tends to bring parts of his favorite movies into his own. For example, the diner dance scene in Pulp Fiction is almost identical to a scene in one of his favorites, Federico Fellini's 8 ½.
Tarantino knows when to keep the cameras rolling, and often uses unscripted incidents in his films that he is sure works. For example, in Django Unchained, Leonardo DiCaprio played antagonist Calvin Candie. While slamming his fist on the table, DiCaprio cut his fist on the table. Tarantino liked it so much; he kept it in the final cut.
In the 1990s, Tarantino was shopping for a Volvo because he heard that they were safe. While looking around the lot, he realized that a stunt team could upgrade any vehicle to make it death-proof. This moment is what inspired the 2007 film with the same name.
Tarantino hates poor product placement in his films. To make things better, he invents his own product brands for his films such as Red Apple Cigarettes. There are times when he uses products that have been discontinued, such as Fruit Brute cereal.
Tarantino has a list of actors who he loves to work with, including Samuel L. Jackson, Uma Thurman, and Michael Madsen. However, it is not uncommon for A-list actors to plead for roles the way that Robert DeNiro did in Jackie Brown.
Many of Tarantino's films have plenty of violence and profanity. Many of his movies are also fixated on women's feet. In most of his films, you can see a closeup shot of the stars' shoes or feet. Could he have a foot fetish?
Gogo Yubari has a schoolgirl persona and a deadly meteor hammer. This weapon is pretty scary. Tarantino knows this first-hand because he was hit in the head with the weapon. Ouch.
In the film Inglorious Bastards, Eli Roth did a great job playing Donny "The Bear Jew" Donowitz. Initially, Tarantino wanted Adam Sandler to play the part. Unfortunately, he was already working on Funny People, and he didn't have the time to take the role.
In The Hateful Eight, Jennifer Jason Leigh had to play a song on a guitar, and Kurt Russel had to grab it from her and smash it. Unfortunately, Kurt didn't wait for the crew to switch the guitar with a prop guitar. He ended up smashing a priceless 19th-century guitar. Oops.
