This is the first time you see Uma Thurman's character on screen, and it's right after she's been using a kinda deep sexy voice over an intercom to guide John Travolta around the house. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXzSQom87NA

I don't have a problem with it, it's not like Uma Thurman didn't know exactly what was being filmed at that moment and it's not like Tarantino was holding her dream movie hostage like Weinstein did with with Hayek and Frida The Kill Bill stunt that almost killed her is closer to that type of situation. But you have to read interviews and stuff to know about that, versus just watch a very popular movie.

Also Thurman and he are supposedly close friends now, he publicly apologized several times and she’s come out in defense of him since then.

He also went into the archives and dug out the footage for her even though it doesn’t make him look good.

Probably not. But he still did that. Like Uma was the one who said he did it. And he did do a tiny blurb for an interview about it after the fact.

From Dusk til Dawn was directed by Robert Rodriguez, but it does have Tarantino sucking whiskey from Selma Hayek's toes. Skip to 3:08. https://youtu.be/Naq2DF5aRdM

Bust Rodd posted:Tarantino is also no stranger to near constant accusations of sexual perversion, it’s really easy to imagine someone like that not wanting to draw attention to it I read one interview where he was talking about how he likes that we now have camera phones because people would wake up when he'd use a Polaroid camera to photograph people with dildos if they fell asleep on his set. deoju posted:From Dusk til Dawn was directed by Robert Rodriguez, but it does have Tarantino sucking whiskey from Selma Hayek's toes.

Ok, so if that’s how you feel about Tarantino and feet, what do you think of James Cameron and blue cat people?

Cameron is into feet too. Just not sexually. Aliens has lots of shots of feet. Off the top of my head; the first shot of a space marine on the planet is a boot stomping in a puddle, the cocooned colonists shoe, acid dripping on to Bishop's foot, the reveal of the power loader, the queen grabbing Ripley's shoe while getting sucked into space. I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting. Also in Terminator there's a skull stomped by a metal foot. And in T2 there's a slo mo shot of Arnie treading on a rose from the bouquet he hid his shot gun in.

Bust Rodd posted:Yeah it’s not just about being free, it’s about getting justice for being literally enslaved for a decade It's amazing anyone is even questioning this, though seems to go with how much people just love to hate Britney for absolutely no reason. I tell ya, the early 00s was just frothing misogyny (among other things) suddenly pushed as mainstream and omnipresent. Jamie strikes me as doing what most abusive parents do when they realise they're actually getting called out; wildly backpedal and go 'Aw shucks, well it's all good now, see?'

A lot of this comes down to the supposed deviancy of the fetish rather than it being somehow abnormal for directors to include sexually suggestive content in movies though. If we were talking about a movie that highlighted a woman's breasts, or body in general, we'd be describing like 90% of hollywood movies.

Also, it explains a lot that gratuitous sexuality in movies is the result of horny and/or spiteful producers who just have to objectify women if they're going to be featured at all.

Tarintino doesn’t come across as a particularly nice person. He mentioned recently that he doesn’t help out his mom financially because she told him not to be a filmmaker when he was a kid. Like sure, you don’t want to poo poo on a kids dream but that’s solid advice as most people don’t make it.

Honestly, posts like this are way weirder and say way more about the person behind them than a filmmaker being upfront about a relatively commonplace paraphilia Like the fact that you would even name it in the same breath as “being Harvey Weinstein” is really really bizarre but that’s a Groovelord Neato post for you.

There's nothing wrong with liking feet if whatever you're doing with feet is consensual and not harming anything. It's really weird how that's looked upon a lot as like the most depraved possible perversion compared to a lot of other stuff.

Someone doesn't have to be a Weinstein-style rapist to be a loving creep though. Tarantino wrote a scene about his character engaging in his personal fetish in a very public setting. It doesn't matter how tame the fetish is, and the fact that foot stuff is pretty mild would make it easier for him to involve that kink in movies. That doesn't necessarily hit the level of exiling him from Hollywood forever. But this whole thread is about powerful people, mostly men, using their position to indulge their sexual desires. Tarantino setting things up so that he got to suck Salma Hayek's toes fits as an example of that whether or not it's outright abusive.

It's not really about the fact that he has a thing with feet, it's that he's bringing it into the workplace and using his position as a director to get women to participate in his fetish with him. It's unprofessional at best. The comparison to Weinstein is obviously off-base though.

Nobody chooses what gets them horny, that’s not how being horny works. If someone is into feet it has more to do with their brain chemistry and hormone levels than it has to do with them making the conscious decision to fetishize a particular part of someone’s body or a specific behavior
