Zach Braff Recalls Quentin Tarantino Joking After Losing: 'You Stole My F**king Grammy!'
HuffPost
The "Garden State" director was honored when his soundtrack garnered an Grammy nod, but never thought he'd beat the music from "Kill Bill Vol. 2" — until he did.
Zach Braff was wholly unprepared to defeat Quentin Tarantino at the 2004 Grammys.
The “Garden State” actor-writer-director was certainly honored when his collection of alternative music for the film was nominated for Best Compilation Soundtrack Album for a Motion Picture. But he genuinely didn’t think he’d beat Tarantino’s “Kill Bill Vol. 2” — until he did.
“I couldn’t believe it,” Braff told The Ringer for an oral history of the soundtrack Wednesday.
“Tarantino jokingly said, ‘You stole my fucking Grammy, man,’ and then gave me a big smile and a hug,” he continued. “He was super sweet and supportive. I was the kind of film-school kid that would have put a ‘Reservoir Dogs’ poster on my wall.”
Braff had graduated with a film studies degree from Northwestern University and, after nabbing his lead role in the beloved comedy series “Scrubs,” acquired $2.5 million in financing — and landed Natalie Portman as his co-star — for his 2004 directorial debut.
