Video After The Jump
Director Quentin Tarantino's latest film Django Unchained is one of the most talked about films in recent months. While people like Spike Lee have boycotted the slave-era flick it has also received a lot of positive reviews.
Tarantino recently sat down with Channel 4's Krishnan Guru-Murthy to discuss the film, but the conversation quickly shifted to a heated debate about whether film violence can lead to real life violence.
Tarantino didn't like the line of questioning and went off on Guru-Murthy.
"Don't ask me a question like that, I'm not biting. I refuse your question," Tarantino said. "I'm not your slave and you're not my master. You can't make me dance to your tune. I'm not a monkey. I'm here to sell my movie. This is a commercial for my movie make no mistake. I don't want to talk about the implications of violence. The reason I don't want to talk about it is I've said everything I have to say about it. If anyone cares what I have to say about it they can Google me. And they can look up twent years of what I have to say about it. I haven't changed my opinion about one iota. I'm shutting your butt down!"
Krishnan Guru-Murthy
Undeterred, Guru-Murthy continued to press Tarantino about the topic.
"It's my job to try and explore some serious themes," explained Guru-Murthy. "Violence is such a big part of all of your movies. It's an enjoyable part of your movies for so many people and that's why I'm talking about it. It's a very sensitive time at the moment and the vice president is talking to people in the movie industry about violence. You haven't said why you think there's no relationship [between movie violence and real life violence."
At that point Tarantino cut Guru-Murthy off.
"It's none of your damn business what I think about that," Quentin said. "I'm saying no and I'm shutting you down. I don't have any responsibility to you to explain anything I don't want to."
