youtube YouTube Tarantino On Infamous Scorsese Rumour

Quentin Tarantino should read bedtime stories to children

Do you know what a .44 magnum pistol would do to a Columbia executives face?

He told that one almost like one of his characters telling a story

He's a good story teller, mabe he should turn that asset into a carreer or something...

So, basically, Scorsese became Travis Bickle for one night

There should be a series where Tarantino tells us about all the legendary tales he has absorbed over the years.

Scorcese: Hey, Columbia Picture executive, wanna hear a joke? Exec: Sure Scorcese: Knock Knock

Imagine Tarantino making a short film about this story, but giving it a bloodier twist

The way he says he "can't imagine what it'd be like to make taxi driver" sounds so sexual for him. Love it

Tarantino is such a great storyteller.

A fictional version of that legendary night vigil would make an amazing 10th and last Tarantino film. I can imagine the opressive tone, the dialogues with visitors, the flashbacks and even the conclusion, when the director doesn't get the R rating and goes on a murdering spree of studio executives.

Quentin Tarantino tells stories like an overexcited kid who has run home to tell his ma about his schoolday.

It is said that Tarantino did quite a similar approach to his film Kill Bill, Vol.1. When movie execs screened his film and told him to edit out more than half of the Crazy 88 fight scene with Beatrix, or face not so favorable movie classification for the whole film because of the gore and too much bloodshed, Tarantino decided to modify a large portion of the fight scene from full color to black and white to dull the senses and hopefully tone down extreme violence. In that same scene, Tarantino inserted a part where a female character shut off the lights during intense fighting that only the silhouettes of his characters can be seen to achieve less emotional intensity among viewers. In the end, Tarantino was able to have the whole Crazy 88 fight scene pass the movie execs approval and seemed to have quite favorable movie classification.

As it Turns out its true. Martin Scorsese hinted it in a recent interview with Steven Speilberg !!

Scorsese to the Columbia Pictures executive: "Hey Columbia Pictures executive, how you doing?" Columbia Pictures executive: "Okay, okay my man, how..? ... Where do I know you from, man?" Scorsese: "I don't know. How's everything in the movie censoring business, huh?" Columbia Pictures executive: "Do I know you?" Scorsese: "No. Do I know you?" Columbia Pictures executive: "Get out of here. Come on, get lost, huh?" Scorsese: "Do I know you?... How is Taxi Driver? You know Taxi Driver." Columbia Pictures executive: "No, I don't know no Taxi Driver. Taxi Driver? Come on, get out of here, man." Scorsese: "You don't know any movie by the name of Taxi Driver?" Columbia Pictures executive: "I don't know no movie named Taxi Driver." Scorsese: "No?" Columbia Pictures executive: "Hey, get back to your fucking movie fan club before you get hurt, huh man? Do me a favor, I don't want no trouble, huh? Okay?" Scorsese: "You got a gun?" Columbia Pictures executive: "Get the fuck outta here, man. Just get outta here!" Scorsese: "SUCK ON THIS!"

I've never thought that the cameo guy in the robert rodriguez flicks was such a great storyteller, maybe in another dimension he is a writer or something.

Wanna hear Tarantino’s critique on Joker 2019

If Scorsese would've born in India, he would have blown the entire censor board.

Tarantino loves murders

It's a true story. What happened is that after Marty desaturated the the blood, he was actually pleased because it made the scene (for him) even more nightmarish!

There's no way Scorsese would confirm or deny this, after the way Tarantino told the story. lol

Given the Scorsese scene in the back of Travis's cab, the legend as opposed to the truth was printed. Seeing a new 70mm print in 1996 was one of the greatest cinematic joys of my life.

That is a man who is passionate about his work.

"Oh hello, I didn't see you there. I'm Quentin Tarantino, director of Pulp Fiction. Would you like to hear a story?"

This was a man who was committed to his art , this is a man who would not take it any more.

I'm glad you put KZhead in the title, twice, or I would have forgot where I am, thanks 😂

Idk when this was recorded, but this definitely influenced Tarantinos thought process for Kill Bill where he made the bloodiest scene black and white in order to get that R rating

I’m here because QT told China to F off from censoring his masterpiece “Once upon a time in Hollywood.”

I heard that when they filmed the movie they knew ahead of time the shootout would be scrutinized, so the purposely used "orange" blood, which in my opinion looked MORE realistic and graphic!

Maybe that's why Scorsese later on made the movie "King of Comedy"

Quentin Tarantino talks about movies like Glenn Gould talks about music

Why is Quentin not a youtuber?

Did you have an anuerism making that title wtf

Don't come between an Italian and his art.

Tarantino's True Hollywood Stories.

Another legend associated with that film is that Oliver Stone claims he was the inspiration for Travis Bickle.

the colour desaturation part is true as i've heard scorsese talking about that in interviews but, the drunken plot to shoot his boss i've never heard that before

Why doesn't Tarantino just ask him? He's not some schlump like me out in the sticks wondering if it's true, he knows the guy. Go knock. He probably lives next door.

Have another line Quentin . No one will notice.

Que grande Tarantino y su admiracion por Scorsese es tan genuina ,dos fundamentales del cine.

All I hear whenever he says the movie's name is "Sexy Driver".

I heard he stayed awake all night drinking contemplating he was going to meet the man on the morning and deliver a really long monologue to him!

My favorite Taxi Driver story was that the script originally called for all the villains to be black but Scorsese said "No dude, that's racist." So he made the character that Harvey Keitel would play a white pimp who acts like a white dude who thinks he's black and have him work for the Italian Mafia. This was a great choice because it made Kietel's character more memorable.

What a legend of a man. Thank you Mr. T.. You are the real one

I miss this period in time. Tarantino just sitting in a chair talking about all these things

If Scorsese had done that, the movie would have been 10x cooler if that's even possible

Art

Somehow, I always knew this was the reason for his making the Crazy 88 fight suddenly go into Black and White. Thanks

I could listen to him for hours. Great storyteller. Very focused and well structured. And I never heard of this story before. Makes the movie even more intense. Greetings from Germany! 😊

QT is something else and his outrageous screenplays mirror realistic attitudes with a sense of humor. I'm black and I think the most comical QT screenplay, Reservoir Dogs," with the Old Dude making talking outlandish shit [the Doris Day/Probation Officer sequence] that was realistic, funny, and Un-PC as somebody's (including my own) writing or medium of expression should be.

you absolutely nailed the Title!

You see, this is what it is. He isn't only a filmmaker. He can tell a good story just when hes sitting there talking. That is a true storyteller, and a great filmmaker.

“youtube KZhead...” haha why was this in the title

I also read that he became addicted to coke while making TD (that shot almost entirely at night) and once the film was finished he checked into rehab and spent a month cleaning up.

humanity deserves more of tarantinos talk about movies

I love the title of the video. Its so “How does uploading videos on youtube work”

“He did that in lieu of killing a man…” Legend

So all it took was a slight change of color of the blood to go from an X to an R?

What's remarkable is that by desaturating the colour, Scorcese made the film more realistic and less garish and therefore more honest(especially in its use of violence) and the executives passed it along with the MPAA. Scorcese may have been pulling a fast one and if so, he is one of the rare filmmakers that one could call "genius."

What was this recorded for? Some extra for a Taxi Driver edition?

i doubt that's true but it could be a good set up for a fictional movie

Could the black and white scene in kill bill volume one be a reference to this?

I don't know. The blood in that shoot out is still pretty Crayola/fire engine/candy apple red... or have they since restored it to the original?

Quentin should have a show where we sit and just listen to him talking. Writing lessons, retrospectives on movies he likes, recommendations, interviewing contemporaries. Would work great on Netflix like My Next Guest with Letterman

Dam this guy tells good stories , he should make movies or something

It’s always the crazy people who make the best art

What interview is this from?

Well that was worth watching, WOW.

Tarantinos knowledge of film is on another level.

There's no way Scorsese would shoot anyone.

It would make more sense to shoot additional scenes so graphic and never meant to be approved and not vital to the film so that when the censorship comes in, what you cut makes what you have seem tame and keeps the integrity of the original film.

I almost thought I was having a stroke when I saw the title of this video, not going to lie.

1. Why is this on recommended? 2. What’s with that title?

The more I watch taxi driver the more I understand why tarantino thinks its the best scorsese movie. There is some really deep seeded situations in that film and character portrayal emotions are deep also, a real modern classic.

“ALLEGEDLY!!”😂😂

this legend has been tied to every Scorsese movie - including Hugo . . . obviously, the man is a psychopath

Martin Scorsese? More like Martin Scor-crazy

3:35 He is always really respectful

Two things. I love the black and white tea house fight in Kill Bill. But I also want to see the full color more violent version that came out in Japan

Why am I being recommended this in 2019...

First word that comes into my head when I see Tarantino is "respect". He has so much respect for his peers and for true film makers. He's one of the most perfect artists this world has ever seen, in my opinion. Think about it, this man can do whatever he wants, and he has always done whatever he wants, in regards to his films. Try bullying Tarantino around, it's just not happening. Disney tried and fuck them, there's no holding a Tarantino film back, simply because we don't have many of these story tellers left anymore. And also the amount of knowledge he has about films is beyond incredible, science should preserve his brain, no fucking joke. It's an encyclopedia up there. Can't wait for his 10th film. If it's going to be the last one like he says it will, then I can't imagine how great it will be.

back in the day when every video title started with "youtube KZhead"

tarantino comes off kinda west hollywood here if ya get my drift

Tarantino is such a great storyteller cinematically, but verbally, it's like he can hardly fucking talk.

Quentin...embrace your hairline. Let it go.

that guy talks like he is a chracter in a Tarantino movie

i want his sassyness and soothing voice on my siri

He's my favorite director but he's just so damn weird lol... Tarantino I mean.

I love you, Quentin.

Didn’t Tarantino have to do something similar with Kill Bill? It might have just been the UK version but I seem to remember part of the Crazy 88 sequence suddenly switching to black & white which I’m pretty sure was some kind of demand from the BBFC.

The final shootout scene is desaturated. There has been talk of restoring it with the film negative for decades but as I understand it the negative is either lost or too damaged. So release after release after release, the scene remains desaturated.

He loved it so much that he stole some steven prince stuff for pulp fiction. Yknow... as an "homage"

How to act like Tarantino: Wave your hands a lot and swallow the saliva in your mouth as often as possible.

I like when he sounded like this. He's never this chill nowadays.

Legend to Legend

Why is this glorified in hollywood? If a regular joe did this in a regular job they'd be arrested

I always wondered about the brownish tinge in that scene.

Wow! never heard that one..!

He said he can’t imagine what it feels like to have made a film like Taxi Driver. I beg to differ, Mr. Tarantino...I think at LEAST two of your films are equal to Taxi Driver’s brilliance. At LEAST two of them, for sure.

He reminds me of my grandmother
