It is unknown how many films he saw throughout his life, Quentin Tarantino. Maybe all of them, including Seville connectionstarring the Morancos and whose viewing interested him so much that he asked Álex de la Iglesia, astonished. What we can assure you is this: Tarantino will rarely have left a cinema with a shrug. His opinions are always strong. For better or for worse.
His brutal remarks towards Paul Dano sparked an outpouring of support for the co-star Well of ambitionand also another criticism against Tarantino. However, there was a time when Quentin Tarantino He also knew how to congratulate the performers. And, just as he called Dano “the worst actor in Hollywood,” Ricardo Darín was nicknamed “the Al Pacino of Argentina”. A comparison that, in this case, no one contested for obvious reasons.
What does Tarantino think of Ricardo Darín?
It all starts with a plan shared by Pedro Almodovar and Quentin Tarantino. The two directors are responsible for awarding the Oscar for best international film, for which there were two more than well placed candidates: The white ribbonby Haneke; And The secret of his eyesby Campanella.
The person responsible for reading the envelope is Almodóvar (who has already given clues about the winner’s language), but the one who intervenes to shake Campanella’s hand is Tarantino. Behind the director, several performers of The secret of his eyesamong them Guillermo Francella, whose cry (“Let’s go!”) resonated in the room upon learning that the film had just won the Oscar.
The one who wasn’t there was Ricardo Darín, who has already spoken several times about his disinterest in Hollywood and, above all, his insistence on treating Hispanic actors like a cliché. Tarantino, in any case, would not have taken his absence into account.
In a later interview he defined it this way: “He’s one of my favorite Spanish-speaking actors. It’s incredible, the Al Pacino of Argentina. It’s just fantastic“He then resumed handing over the statuette to The secret of his eyes. “As you remember, it was me who gave him the Oscar with Pedro Almodóvar.”
From time to time, these words of Tarantino are recovered by the Argentinians (and not only by them) as an express request addressed to the director of pulp Fiction Count on Ricardo Darín for your next (and perhaps last) film. And now, it’s not completely out of the question, given that Tarantino seems to have alienated all of Hollywood over his criticism of Paul Dano, so he may have to look for his casting far from Los Angeles.
