Tarantino was among those honored, when he approached the podium to give his speech, the bag did not go unnoticed. To say the least, it was unusual. Then he opened it and presented its contents: it was the original, handwritten script of Pulp Fictionwith errors, spelling mistakes and everything. It was donated by the director to the museum.
“The script is legendary”said Matt Severson, executive vice president of collections and preservation at the academy. “No one expected it. It was not a coordinated effort on the part of the academy. It’s Quentin thinking what he can do to leave his mark on the museum.”.
It’s one of many high-profile acquisitions for the Academy’s vast collection of movie memorabilia that the organization announced Thursday, including original art from Ponyo of Hayao Miyazakithe glasses worn by Mink Stole in Pink Flamingosthe Snake Plissken suit Kurt Russell of John Carpenter’s Escape from LA, animation models of Figaro and Geppetto Pinocchio of disney and six storyboards The silence of the innocent.
Quentin Tarantino against remakes in Hollywood
During an interview on “The Bret Easton Ellis Podcast” Tarantino was asked if Dune: Part Two Whether or not it was the best movie of the year as many have proclaimed. He didn’t have an answer because he’s not going to see it.
“I saw ‘Dune’ [de David Lynch] a couple of times. I don’t need to see that story again.”Tarantino said about his lack of interest in Villeneuve adaptations. “I don’t need to see spice worms. “I don’t need to see a movie that says the word ‘spice’ in such a dramatic way.”
Tarantino has nothing against Villeneuve, he’s just not interested in seeing a story he’s already familiar with because he’s already invested time in the source material.
“It’s one remake after another,” Tarantino explained. “People ask me if I’ve seen ‘Dune,’ if I’ve seen ‘Ripley,’ if I’ve seen ‘Shgun.’” And I answer them no, no, no, no. There are six or seven Ripley books. If they make one again, why do they make the same one they’ve already made twice? I’ve seen that story twice before and I didn’t like it in either version, so I’m not interested in seeing it a third time. If they did another story, it would be interesting enough to give it a chance anyway.”
“I saw ‘Shgun’ in the ’80s. I watched the whole 13 hours. I’m fine. I don’t need to see that story again, I don’t care how they make it”he added. “I don’t care if they take me to ancient Japan in a time machine. “I don’t care, I’ve seen the story.”
