'Pulp Fiction' Actor: Quentin Tarantino Has Been Given ‘Hall Pass’ To Use N-Word In Films
HuffPost
"It’s not art, it’s just racist and creepy," Rosanna Arquette said.
Actor Rosanna Arquette, who portrayed the girlfriend of drug dealer Lance (Eric Stoltz) in the movie “Pulp Fiction,” has called out its director for using the N-word in his films.
Arquette said she thinks Quentin Tarantino has been given a “hall pass” to use the racial slur in movies like “Django Unchained,” “The Hateful Eight,” “Jackie Brown” and “Pulp Fiction.”
“Personally I am over the use of the N-word — I hate it. I cannot stand that he has been given a hall pass,” Arquette told The Sunday Times (UK). “It’s not art, it’s just racist and creepy.”
Arquette also noted that she thought “Pulp Fiction” was “iconic” on a “lot of levels,” however, she stressed that Tarantino had no business using the derogatory term.
Arquette isn’t the only Hollywood star who has decried Tarantino’s usage of the pejorative. In 2012, director Spike Lee criticized Tarantino for using the N-word in “Django Unchained,” telling Vibe magazine that doing so was “disrespectful to my ancestors.”
