Quentin Jerome Tarantino (born March 27, 1963) is an American filmmaker, actor, film programmer, and cinema owner.
His films are characterized by nonlinear storylines, satirical subject matter, aestheticization of violence, extended scenes of dialogue, ensemble casts, references to popular culture and a wide variety of other films, soundtracks primarily containing songs and score pieces from the 1960s to the 1980s, alternate history, and features of neo-noir film.
The role that almost didn’t happen. Diane Kruger earned a ton of acclaim for her work in 2009’s Inglourious Basterds, but she recently said director Quentin Tarantino didn’t even want her in the film.“He auditioned everyone,” the German-born actress, 45, recalled during the Tuesday, January 11, episode of the “Reign With Josh Smith” podcast. “He didn’t want to audition me because he saw a movie that I was in he didn’t like.
So, he didn’t believe in me from the get-go. Literally, the only reason he auditioned me is because there was no one left to audition.”The National Treasure star eventually landed the role of Bridget Von Hammersmark, an actress turned spy, but she claimed the Oscar winner, 58, really made her work for it.“I had to pay for my own flight from New York to go to Germany because … he wouldn’t see me in the U.S.,” she alleged. “So, I had to jump through all these hoops that definitely put my nose out of joint, but I was like, ‘You know what?
F–k him! I’m just gonna do that and prove to him that I can do it.’ And thankfully, it all worked out.”Kruger scored a nomination for her role at the 2010 Screen Actors Guild Awards, where the entire Inglourious Basterds cast won the trophy for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture.The In the Fade star now believes that the casting process “must’ve been a lesson” for Tarantino as well, especially given her successful turn in the film.“Sometimes you are the one that puts — and I’m sure I’m guilty of that too — you put people in boxes,” she explained. “You think they’re gonna be one way and then they’re not at all.”Kruger previously defended Tarantino after some actors spoke out about the way he treated them on set.
