Talking about "Jackie Brown" Please watch my Quentin Tarantino Tribute on Vimeo: vimeo.com/55881884 Why VIMEO? Because of COPYRIGHT Shit here on RU-vid.
Love from Japan. I am working on a film now. I never forget this interview. I started in Oakland California now I am in Osaka now. Let’s get it let’s gooo!
Well, de niro has been an a-lister before this young whipper snapper was even in the industry. To be the director and to have to take charge of the movie tho and tell de niro what to do on set. I can only imagine what that's like. If the actor has an ego I can imagine it'd be impossible to work with
@@DivineAtheistWannabe Look at them man. A young director, just a tiny touch overprotective and the beast raising his shield. It's hilarious and makes you proud at the same fucking time ...
@chris brady Have you ever seen a gangster movie of De Niro? I doubt it. His characters in Mean Streets, The Godfather 2, Once Upon a Time in America, Goodfellas, The Untouchables and Casino are totally different.
De Niro and Tarantino allegedly didn't have a good experience working together on Jackie Brown, at least according to the New York Post, which leaked a private phone conversation Tarantino had with Harvey Weinstein where they were talking about how De Niro felt he wasn't being paid enough.
@@robotube7361 Leaked phone call of Tarantino and Weinstein talking about De Niro complaining he didn’t get paid enough and how much they annoyed each other on set.
So you go from being a high school drop out working in a video store to sitting on a couch being interviewed with De Niro and referring to him as "Bob". Pretty freakin cool!
I think he means what he says. From that perspective, he is very careful in what and how he says it. I reckon he doesn’t do small talk. A highly intelligent guy. The method probably has inadvertently destroyed his real personality.
This is hilarious. Robert looks like he just came out of the shower. He wears clothes that don't really fit. He's really authentic. As is Quentin. Thanks for uploading.
Met Quentin in NY in the Village at Kim's Underground Video (GO THERE). It was freaky because my wife and I were having a discussion about his work (Huge Fans), and his voice, unmistakeable, we hear one aisle over. Then Quentin just saunters into the next aisle, our aisle. In NY it's Uncool, declasse, to ask for an autograph, who needs those anyway? I said, "Quentin, we're big fans man...thanks for the great work." He smiled like a kid,shook hands, "Thanks, man! Appreciate that." A real person.
you think that they would be bored of hearing the praise all the time. But then again, half the time (especially with such a contraversial filmmaker) half the time it must be hatred. So receiving humble praise from real fans, who don't want a picture, don't want to GET anything, just to give to you, to let you know that what you're doing really means something to someone, that really must be a good feeling.
I love how respectful and supportive Quentin is of Bob. I've heard that Robert DeNiro doesn't like doing interviews, being that he's naturally quite highly introverted. I think he overcomes it in films by becoming absorbed in he character he's playing. Much respect and appreciation to them both for being masters of their crafts.
It just always strange to me, even though I know humans are human, seeing an actor who is so well spoken in a movie and so great at working with a script, barely able to get an answer or even full sentence out without difficulty in interviews. Like I bet they're probably fun to talk to off camera but some people are not built for live TV. No offense to the legend Bobby Deniro but it's such an interesting contrast each time
When I first saw De Niro in Jackie Brown I thought "That's it? What a waste", but now years later it's the one Tarantino movie performance that I find myself loving increasingly more and more on each rewatch. I rewatch Jackie Brown a lot.
although Tarantino has never made a horror film, the delight of Tarantino's films is the delight of the old slashers, like Hills Have Eyes or Last House (the '70's originals). The delight of seeing really really bad men who get exactly what they deserve.
They really did a great job with that studio. Really paid a lot of attention, to the background wall, and the sofa. The designer did a great job, most have been quite expensive though. Not exactly a cheap interior.
I love how in a French interview, De Niro is able to loosen up and talk about the process of filmmaking, whereas the American press seems to be only fascinated with celebrity itself.
DeNiro attitude reminds me a lot of DiCaprio doing interviews with Quentin for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. They both seem to invest a lot before the cameras and don't wanna discuss the process in interviews. I think it's more interesting listening to a director speak about the movie than the actor. Considering it's finally the director's call/take and not much of the actor who just followed what the director expected of them.
deniro has such a tough time intellectualizing his craft. it can be tough to watch, but he's my all time fave. love QT & JB as well, so thanks for posting.
Wow!! Tarantino was so lucky to have De Niro being interviewed with him for that long. He could have had him longer if he'd just let it go about the "daylies situation" and talked about something else. Lol De Niro was pretty smooth on how he left. "I've gotta go, I'm going to miss my plane." Best way to get out of an awkward situation.
@@Aman-nk5uq Taxi Driver, yes seen it, and Raging Bull, yes seen it, but you're right about GF2, unless you mean Grand Father II... in which case I have seen that as well. It's hard to choose, because let's face it, he _is_ brilliant in Cape Fear, too.
This is the most in depth I’ve ever seen De Niro on film. Not that I’ve seen loads… but still! Perhaps disarmed by the relaxed vibe and charming interviewers
They should work together again. I really don't get why quentin don't call him. Actually I really don't get why all great directors don't call him, he's like most fascinating actor EVER. Bruce Dern is great, Samuel L Jackson is amazing, but man, De Niro is just fucking De Niro. De Niro makes it all another level.
brahim kadi Yeah, but just because the role is different or harder doesn't mean it's good. I think he was miscast, that's the problem. Having de niro in a role like this is just not a good idea.
De Niro's most frightening character ever was in Jackie Brown. The subtle, bottled up frustration of that character always bubbling up to the surface, but never exploding.
cb81987 Nah, he's nothing compared to PS Hoffman, Daniel Day Lewis, Gary Oldman, and a couple of others. He's very good, at least was, but he's not the best.
wiremessiah Aside from Daniel Day Lewis possibly,none of the other actors mentioned can reach De Niro's best work. I personally don't think he's the best but he his top 5.
Joe Lazarus Gary oldman in The Professional and True Romance are as good as anything De Niro has ever done. As is PS hoffman in The Master and Synechdoche New York. Day Lewis in My Left Foot and There will be blood are better than anything De Niro has done.
One can notice the hostility between the two. The body language, the selective words chosen to say for each other, the lack of smile and fun that usually is there when they're both with other people. No wonder they never worked again together.
In grade school I idolized this rap group - I showed up to one of their shows and nobody else came, so it was just me and them all night - Quentin’s inquisitive energy being stunted by his fandom here is relatable.
12:03 that's why Quentin is a GENIUS Director, & De Nero is a GENIUS actor - because you can have them both doing NOTHING basically on-set, in the film, & it works. & makes a great scene, & it's a great movie. If you've not seen it, go watch it. Fantastic.
This is awesomely spectacular for the following reasons: - Mr. De Niro (and Tarantino) had clearly been kidnapped by German terrorist fanboys who have zero decor skills - Quentin was LOVING IT (I assume he paid for the experience - to see Bob as Lewis again) - Bob WAS Lewis again - throw in a Screwdriver, a bong and a stoner surfer-girl - To support my kidnapping theory, Mr. De Niro wasn't saying a lot, but he was telling us everything. THINK ABOUT IT - It's great to see the greats able to watch a great movie and experience it (basically) just like the rest of us, in it's final release form!

yes, actors always stay in character through the media circuit for a film. this is the same as Leo in the OUATIH interviews, same loser unsure anxious self loathing character. Washed up criminal, washed up actor
I was in that Allen Garfield class with Quentin back in 1986. (Interesting to watch him here with DeNiro as we both shared a great passion for "Mean Streets") The Actor's Shelter. A little place on Robertson Blvd. in Beverly Hills. We hung out, rehearsed and worked on a scene from Sam Shepard's "True West" which was a TRIP. Allen was quite the teacher. A friend. He LOVED Quentin. You knew from watching him perform some of the material he had written the guy had a gift. An American Original. Given this interview was 1997, he's made his mark as a MAJOR TALENT in film history. Solid body of work. In closing, I believe "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood" was the film he was destined to make. EPIC. Happy for QT.
80s just like 90's gave so many gems. Nowdays we have crappy commercial movies, full of CGI, weak plots and in general mediocre products, made just for the "crowd" and thinking to grab money first. ( i am still crying for that abomination of femminator: dark tanga )
