I watched Pulp Fiction for the first time 6 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:18,799 Speaker 2: in a long time a couple of weeks ago. 7 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 3: I like that. 8 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 2: I like Djengo, I like the Kill Bills. I kind 9 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 2: of like his work altogether. 10 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: Kill Bills Man, Uma Thurman. It's just a badass like. 11 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 3: I like his action scenes. 12 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, and even going back into movies that he I 13 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 1: don't he didn't direct True Romance with Christian Slater and 14 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: Patricia arcad Uh, but I think he wrote it. I 15 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 1: think he either produced it or wrote it. That was 16 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: That was a major movie when I was younger. 17 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 3: Till Dawn. Was that him? 18 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, George Clooney and. 19 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, Desperado Antonio Bandettes. 20 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if he did that one or not. 21 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: That may have been the other guy that the director 22 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 1: that works out of Austin that did like Spy Kids, 23 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: and like the guy that did Spike Kids also did 24 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: like all these violent movies with Robert Rodriguez. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 25 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 1: Robert Rodriguez, Quentin Tarantino is in the news. And first 26 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: of all, one of my favorite movies is Once Upon 27 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: a Time in Hollywood with Brad pitt And and Leo DiCaprio, 28 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: two of my favorite actors. Really funny, funny, just great dialogue. 29 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:44,759 Speaker 1: Now you mentioned pulp fiction. Pulp Fiction came out ninety four, 30 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: not I wouldn't say controversial at the time, but it 31 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: was really popular and it put John Travolta back on 32 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: the map. As his character in Vincent Vega, he was like, 33 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: you know, kind of still. I think he just got 34 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: done doing that baby movie, like the part four or whatever. 35 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 1: Do you know what I'm talking about, Alison, Look who's 36 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 1: talking or something like that. Is that it? But it 37 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: was it was very violent, very uncomfortable dialogue at some points. 38 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: And there's a woman and I mentioned Patricia Arkeette. I 39 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: was in love with her back in the day. Her 40 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: sister Rosanna Arquette, the Arquette family. I think David Arquette's 41 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: their brother, had a bit role in that movie. She 42 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: was Jodie. She was Lance's girlfriend. Lance was the guy 43 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: that provided Vincent Vega with the heroine that Uma Thurman 44 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: overdosed on and so she had a bit part. She 45 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:59,119 Speaker 1: had the nose piercings and stuff. She recently was on 46 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: some I don't know a podcast or something, and she 47 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: was talking about her role in Pulp Fiction, saying, quote, 48 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: it was a great film on a lot of levels, 49 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: but I disapprove of the repeatedios of the racial slurs 50 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: of the film. Personally, I'm over the use of the 51 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: N word. I hate it. I can't stand that Tarantino 52 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:34,239 Speaker 1: has been given a hall path. It's not art. It's 53 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: racist and creepy. Now, I'm not going to bid myself 54 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: at a in a pretzel defending that word in any way, 55 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: shape or for me. I don't like the word. I 56 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: don't use it, but it was integral in the part 57 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: of the movie it was. It was part of like 58 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: Samuel L. Jackson, who played Jewels, used the word. It 59 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: was uttered twenty times. And then it's often Djangle. You 60 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: mentioned Django unchained with That's a movie. 61 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: That's a movie about slavey was slavery. 62 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: If Quentin Tarantino wrote a movie about slavery, it with 63 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 1: badass movie and nobody said the word and nobody said it, 64 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: he'd get criticized for soft soaping or and and. 65 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 2: Whitewashing show the truth plight of what people went through 66 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: that era. 67 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: It was used one hundred and ten times in Django Unchained, which, 68 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: by the way, a side note. I thought it would 69 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: have been a much better movie if they hadn't used 70 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 1: the cartoonish spaghetti western music as the score, because it was. 71 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: It was a badass movie, and they could have used 72 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: just an intense, uh meaningful symphonic score, but he did 73 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: the kind of wee wee wee, wee wee wee, and 74 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: hey man, take it up with say me l Jackson 75 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: and Jamie Fox, who have defended Quentin Tarantino over the 76 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 1: use of that word in his films. Those are black guys, yea, 77 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: And they used it all right. The script calls for 78 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: it. It's a movie. I would never say that to anybody. 79 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: I wouldn't call that to anybody. But like, the point 80 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: is to make people uncomfortable. I think that was part 81 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 1: of the point. And there's there's a. 82 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 2: Lot of things in movies that I don't approve of 83 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 2: that are integral to the part of movies. 84 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 3: I know there's a lot of times there's characters I'm like, 85 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 3: I don't like that guy every horror. 86 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: Movie on the planet where they dismember Oh god, the 87 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: new version of it, don't approof. Have you seen the 88 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: new version? You haven't seen, Alison. Did you watch the 89 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: I mean I came out in like twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen, 90 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: maybe the latest version of yeah with yeah, yeah, yeah, 91 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,479 Speaker 1: some of the guys things. Kids were in it. But 92 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: that opening scene where I don't know what's his face, 93 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 1: the kid that was floating the boat down the stream 94 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: and he was in Charley coach Charlie. Is that what 95 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: his name was? Yeah, that scene was much more. You 96 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: don't approve of that of the dismemberment of a seven 97 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: year old kid live on screen, and it was much 98 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: more violent than the original one that that was on ABC. 99 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: I think it was the ABC mini series, but a 100 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 1: cat more akin to the book. But anyway, that's such 101 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,919 Speaker 1: a good point. There's lots of things in movies. 102 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 3: I'm watching. I'm watching a show now on Hulu called 103 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 3: The Beauty. It's really good. 104 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 2: It's only one season, but there are some scenes in 105 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 2: that movie where a guy is pulling out of restraints 106 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 2: and literally he pulls the skin off of like to 107 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 2: get his arms out of the restraints. 108 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,599 Speaker 3: I didn't need to see all that at all, but 109 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:56,679 Speaker 3: it was integral to the movie. 110 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 1: So Tarantino, okay, So and again Versanna Arquet. You know 111 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: the chick that I think Toto wrote a song about Rosana. Rosana, 112 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: so she's criticizing Tarantino. It's creepy, it's he gets a 113 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: hall pass. Tarantino had a great fighting a bitter response. 114 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, Bitter's not the right word, but just 115 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: just a great response. Dear Rosanna, writes Tarantino, I hope 116 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: the publicity you're getting from one hundred and thirty two 117 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: different media outlets writing your name and printing your picture 118 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: was worth disrespecting me in the film. I remember quite 119 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: clearly you were thrilled to be a part of Do 120 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: you feel this way now? Very possibly that after I 121 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: gave you a job and took and you took the 122 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: money to trash it for what I suspect is very 123 00:07:55,640 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: cynical reasons, shows a decided lack of class, no less honor. 124 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: There was supposed to be in he a spree de 125 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: corps nerd. I'm not sure what that means between artistic colleagues. 126 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: It would appear the objective was accomplished.
