Tarantino to make a "Harvey Weinstien" Documentary.

[Lord_Stewie]

Hey,

Seems like the next Quentin Tarantino project will be a Harvey Weinstien Documentary.

Here is more about it:

Tarantino reportedly may make a Harvey Weinstein documentary.

News that Tarantino might make a documentary on Harvey Weinstein cropped up about a week ago in the New York Times and most everyone seemed to miss it, but now it has surfaced once more. See, Barry Avrich, who wrote and directed a documentary about Lew R. Wasserman (The Last Mogul) is angling to make a film in the same no-holds-barred vein, with Harvey Weinstein as the subject. But Harvey seems to be less than interested in that film, currently called Unauthorized: The Harvey Weinstein Project. Avrich says the film will be balanced, not a hatchet job, and that Harvey Weinstein at first advised him not to make it.

Then Weinstein reportedly said that Quentin Tarantino was mulling his own doc about the mogul, which would start with Weinstein’s days as a concert promoter and then get into his years with Miramax. Tarantino’s spokesperson said that he and the Weinsteins are “unofficially kicking around the idea” of the documentary.

This doesn’t seem like the most likely project — at this point it really looks like something that is just being floated to block the doc by Avrich, and Tarantino already has a laundry list of potential projects that includes a ’30s gangster picture, a western, an Inglourious Basterds prequel, a Kill Bill sequel, a slavery picture and likely several others.
Still, it’s an interesting idea. On one hand, a Weinstein doc from Tarantino would seem superficially like one of the more biased projects out there. But going in with the understanding that the bias exists, we also might be able to get some interesting insight on Harvey from Tarantino, who has worked intimately with the producer throughout almost his entire career.

Enjoy.

What's it going to be called? "I'm a fat, indecisive, piece of s#!t"?

They should get this guy to play him:

Hopefully.

Tarantino wouldn't have taken the project if it wasn't going to be good. Maybe he has something to say about Harvey. Who knows?. I am still shocked about it though.

Tarantino sort of owes Harvey. Nobody wanted to accept his first flick or was it Pulp and Harvey was reluctant to release it but did anyway and he said remember where you got started.

Isn't Tarantino sort of keeping Harvey's company afloat now? With IB, they might have not made it another year from what I remember.

I'm wondering who is their target audience w/this? Do people care enough to pay to see this?

[WyldeMan45]

This will probably be the only time a Weinstein film doesn't spend years on a shelf waiting for release. Think that fat narcissist while rush this to theaters, cause everybody would want to know about him right?.......................right?

Will Tarantino kill everyone in a blazing shoot out at the end?

[master_8ball]

The company is going under and yet they talk about making another movie no one will want to see, sounds like the smart thing to do.

[P@t_Mtl]

Will there be a lot of swearing, blood and gun fights????

[MDJ]

worst.idea.ever

come on QT focus your talent elsewheres.

[Secretagentnumber6]

Harvey must be calling in that favor. Tarantino obviously owes him one. Without him Tarantino may have never been.

[Foggy]

I don't care if Tarantino is directing, I won't watch it, and I love Tarantino

And without Tarantino, Weinstein would have been doing what exactly?? Harvey owes EVERYTHING to Tarantino.

Hey you guys think that the whole time Tarantino mentioned his slave movie, he was referring to this? Actors forced into working under the Weinstein banner, planning to revolt.

I mentioned before Weinstein gave Tarantino his start and launched his career. At that time Miramax or Weinstein Company were pretty successful. The fail of the company has come in recent years.
