FIRST TIME WATCHING: The Hateful Eight
Happy Feature Friday!
What a fun flick for today! This one was a slow burn but all that classic Tarantino violence came in at the end haha. I'm attaching the link for the outro because I filmed that separately on a different day. I watched this film on Netflix.
As always, thank you for your support here on Patreon. Until the next one, take care and stay golden :)
P.S. I filmed all of this before the news of Michael Madsen's passing yesterday. RIP Michael.

I watched this movie on Christmas Day opening day at the del Amo mall in Torrance and was surprised to find out that sitting right in front of me was Quentin Tarantino himself! He thanked everyone for spending their Christmas with him. I still kinda regret not having the nerve to say thanks to him
Did you mean it to cut off before you did the commentary at the end of the movie??
there is a separate Outro link up there ^
In case you forgot to look it up later, yes, this film was primarily shot in Colorado about 10 miles outside Telluride.
Bloody brilliant movie, the writing is phenomenal and the pay off is well worth the wait. Plus the location shots are fantastic.
The New Zealand actress Zoe Bell is so sweet and memorable in this film by just being such a warm presence in a cast of mostly awful people. She was actually Uma Thurman’s stunt double in the Kill Bill films and also did stunt work in Inglorious Bastards too. I think Quentin enjoyed working with her because she has a non-speaking role in Django and speaking roles in this and once upon a time in Hollywood.
She has a significant role in Death Proof too, playing herself.
RIP Michael Madsen. One of those actors that’s just in so many things it’s difficult to have never seen him in anything.
I sure hope Jennifer Jason Leigh got extra points on the back end for all the abuse her face took in this one
One of the craziest facts in this movie is that the guitar that Kurt smashes, was a 145-year old museum piece. It was on loan from the Martin Guitar museum. Kurt didn't know it at the time and thought it was a dummy guitar.
You can totally see it if you know it. She laughs and smirks through getting pistol whipped, but she's really concerned about that guitar. It's somewhat obvious that it's the actor reacting, not just the character.
