Quentin Tarantino: Hollywood Is Dead!

Описание: As we await his 10th and final film, Quentin Tarantino blames streaming services for the death of Hollywood.

At the Sundance Film Festival, the Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, and Inglourious Basterds director stated: “What the f is a movie now? What — something that plays in theaters for a token release for four f'ing weeks?” Tarantino said. “All right, and by the second week you can watch it on television. I didn’t get into all this for diminishing returns. I mean, it was bad enough in ’97. It was bad enough in 2019, and that was the last f'ing year of movies. That was a shit deal, as far as I was concerned, the fact that it’s gotten drastically worse? And it’s a show-pony exercise. Now the theatrical release, you know, and then like yeah, in two weeks, you can watch it on this [streamer] and that one. OK. Theater? You can’t do that. It’s the final frontier.”

If you’re wondering what I’m doing right now, I'm writing a play, and it’s going to be probably the next thing I end up doing. If it’s a fiasco I probably won’t turn it into a movie. But if it’s a smash hit? It might be my last movie,” Tarantino said. “That’s a big f'ing deal pulling [a play] off, and I don’t know if I can. So here we go. That’s a challenge, a genuine challenge.”

Tarantino continues: “I’m in no hurry to actually jump into production. I’ve been doing that for 30 years,” he said. “Next month my son turns five, and I have a two-and-a-half-year-old daughter. When I’m in America, I’m writing. When I’m in Israel? I’m an abba, which means father. The idea of jumping on a voyage when they’re too young to understand it is not enticing to me. I kind of want to not do whatever movie I end up doing until my son is at least six. That way he’ll know what’s going on, he’ll be there, and it will be a memory for the rest of his life.”
