Hes less the strong-silent, and more slyly mute.
Whats more, they think he got away with it.
At first it seems like just a dramatic showbiz rumor.
So Janet fires Cliff or, at least, demands that Randy does in an incredible, hilarious sequence.
The scene-stealing Janet is played by one ofQuentin Tarantinos longtime stunt actors turned stunt coordinators, Zoe Bell.
So, I was in the sort of template DVD of one of the versions of the fight.
I dont know if him watching that did a lot but he really enjoyed me being Kurt Russell.
It literally came up on the day.
Quentin said, Hang on, no, Zoe, have you got your cowboy hat here?
And I was like, Um, yeah!
And he was like, Right, we need to put Zoe through the works.
She needs hair, makeup, wardrobe; shes going to be Janet.
Thats the joy of filmmaking with someone whos naturally creative and spontaneous.
Everything about it, I just love everything about that scene.
AndImkind of schooling all of them.
I mean, sorry,Janetis schooling all of them.Zoewould never.
When I watch it, I recognize that Im channeling a lot of the strong women in my life.
Im also probably telling a little bit of what it means to be behind the scenes.
Whats your opinion?Its definitely clear Janet is convinced.
Nothing wrong with being opinionated.
But if Iwasntprivy, I kind of like not knowing.
I think that we were under the impression that hes a veteran and hes literally killed people.
This cavalier attitude is sort of what hes arrived at after living a deeply complicated life.
Was that Brad, or a double?That was a oh, Ishanttell you.
It was Cliff doing it.
But the idea was born of Quentin.
It tells you loads about who he is and what his capabilities are, in like two seconds.
I read that Quentin likes you to use your natural accent, and not your American one.
And if it makes sense in the script, then thats what he wants.
And I certainly appreciate it.
On this one, I was like, Am I American?
He was like, No.
If you could live in any other era of time, when would you choose?Oh my God.
Honestly, after doing this movie, I would like to live in the 60s.
Why?That time felt like theyre kind of in a liberation, a challenging of the status quo.
That time still carries some naivete to it.
There was a kind of beauty in the fight for change.
And its just so fucking cool.
Even the knobby people looked cool.
Things were amazing to look at in the Victorian times, but listen: People must havestunkback then.
The 60s is the best of both worlds.
Everythings not done for you.
Technology is still kind of cusp-y and exciting rather than potentially terrifying.
