EXCLUSIVE: Landing 10 Oscar nominations spanning nearly every major category including Best Picture, Best Director and nods for his leads Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt marks the latest development in a long odyssey that Quentin Tarantino has gone through with Once Upon A Time…In Hollywood. This was a movie that needed a new studio when The Weinstein Company imploded, and found one in Sony. A movie that took a calculated risk with a Cannes premiere well before release that required Tarantino to ask media and audiences to not reveal plot spoilers — they actually listened. Here, Tarantino discusses what the nominations mean to him on a film where nearly everything seemed to go right, and even the challenge of defying Chinese censors that wanted him to excise a fictional scene involving Bruce Lee. He also describes what it means to be part of a 2019 bumper crop of audacious auteur-driven original films also celebrated with Oscar nominations today, films so good he believes they staved off the wisdom that studios are better off making mega-budget sequels and remakes. Tarantino also here confirms suspicions he won’t direct that Star Trek film he put in motion., He does, however, intend to direct all five of the episodes he wrote of Bounty Law, the fictitious ’60s Western series he created as the star vehicle for DiCaprio’s Rick Dalton character.
