Quentin Tarantino Slammed for Flubbing Ennio Morricone Speech at Golden Globes
Filmed in ultra wide 70mm this scenically bleak yet lovely movie is one of the directors most violent and gritty yet, and what western is really complete without a score from Ennio Morricone?
Morricone won the Best Original Score Golden Globe for his work on Quentin Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight. “But when I say favorite composer”, he continued, “I don’t mean movie composer, that’s ghetto”. I’m talking about Mozart. “That’s who I’m talking about”.
Sam Smith and his songwriting partner Jimmy Napes received the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song tonight for “Writing’s On The Wall”, their theme for the final Daniel Craig James Bond film Spectre.
Ironically, Jamie Foxx’s apparent diss of Quentin Tarantino came just months after Foxx defended the director.
Their collaboration on “Hateful Eight”, first announced by Variety in June 2015, took place rapidly with Morricone working from Tarantino’s screenplay, rather than scoring specific scenes, similarly to his technique on Leone’s “Once Upon a Time in the West”.
But Foxx, who presented the award, immediately made clear his puzzlement at the use of the word which Americans often associate with housing slums that are populated with minority groups.
