In a rare appearance in Israeli media, Daniella Pick, model and wife of Quentin Tarantino, revealed that the director of Pulp Fiction (1994) has maintained a firm stance on the current conflict in Gaza. In an interview with Channel 12, Pick said the couple had no plans to leave Tel Aviv for Hollywood, a decision motivated by Israel’s war on Palestine.
According to her, Tarantino faced the country’s daily tension with surprising serenity. “Quentin takes everything as calmly as possible,” he said.
