he does seem to like money though, and has he been in any $$$$$$ pictures lately?
What are we considering "lately?" I Am Legend was 2007 and made over $250 million + in the US alone. Hancock made over half a billion worldwide, and Seven Pounds made over $160 million on a budget a third of that. Since then he's been exec-producing his kids' careers and getting good return on his investment.

tarantino really surrenders final cut? that's surprising. i can believe that he'd take comments, but not that he'd let will smith steamroll him.

I'd be willing to bet that Tarantino has had more plastic surgery than Will Smith. Which is weird since looking good isn't even Tarantino's job.

this was from a long & convoluted description of 'what constitutes indepedent filmmaking', with the eventual criterion being owning your own prints. it's a while since i read this (in rosenbaum's (great) dead man book?, perhaps?), so don't take it as gospel, but it seemed sorta persuasive at the time.

during a Q&A for Grindhouse, someone asked Tarantino about Biskind's Down & Dirty Pictures bk and he made a point, unprompted, of v v strongly refuting the claim that he ever let the Weinstein bros have ANY input into his scripts.

Hi Sarah
Thank you for your very lovley letter. It's the best letter I've gotten all year long. I'm glad you loved "Dusk", it was one of my favrote times making a movie. And I feel my best performance so far. It's cool to hear a girl into horror flicks.
Rock on Sarah!!
Do you know about Itallion horror film maker Mario Bava? He did Blood and Black Lace, Black Sunday and Black Sabbith. He's one of my favrotes. I read your letter to Mira, she loved it too. Write me anytime. I can't wait for you to get your hands on a camera too.
With all my love
(Signed)
P.S. Sarah, since you liked Dusk so much, coming out soon is a movie we did about the making of "Dusk" called "Full Tilt Boogie". It shows how much fun we had. I hope you like it.

Found the script online and am reading away. Crazy - but so was the IG script I thought and the final film stuck fairly close to it. All I gotta say at this juncture is - would be shocked n' amazed if Will Smith actually signs on to do this as written. The "yessuh"'s, etc are the least of it.

Well then:
What is surprising is that DiCaprio is in talks for a supporting role in Tarantino's slavery revenge tale, "Django Unchained," a really, really despicable role. The part, according to press reports, is for Calvin Candie, the plantation owner and slave proprietor who gets his jollies out of watching slaves fight to the death and has no problem beating his own when they don't follow orders.
