\nIn the climactic showdown, Joe\u2019s pointing a gun at Mr. Orange (on the floor, already dying), Mr. White is pointing a gun at Joe, and Nice Guy Eddie (Joe\u2019s son, played by Chris Penn) is pointing a gun at Mr. White. Joe shoots Orange, White shoots Joe, Eddie shoots White \u2026 butfour<\/i> gunshots are heard, and everyone who wasn\u2019t already on the ground ends up that way. So who shot Nice Guy Eddie? (You can find T-shirts asking that question.) The only logical answer, and the way it was supposed to have played out, is that Mr. White did. He shot Joe, then shot Eddie at the same time Eddie was shooting him. But according to Chris Penn, when they filmed it, the squib on Keitel\u2019s (Mr. White\u2019s) body went off slightly prematurely, Keitel went down as he fired his second shot (which looks like it\u2019s still aimed at Joe), and then Penn\u2019s squib exploded as planned. Penn noticed right away that it was ambiguous, but Tarantino decided to leave it that way.<\/p>\n
\nIn the early stages, Tarantino was going to play Mr. Pink himself, with producer Lawrence Bender as Nice Guy Eddie. Steve Buscemi was later considered for Nice Guy Eddie, but ended up playing Mr. Pink, a role for which Michael Madsen (Mr. Blonde) auditioned. Samuel L. Jackson and Ving Rhames both almost played Holdaway (the cop Tim Roth works with in flashbacks). Robert Forster, who later appeared in QT\u2019s Jackie Brown<\/em>, auditioned for the part of Joe, which went to Lawrence Tierney.<\/p>\n
\nWhile searching for producers to finance the film and save them from having to make it themselves on a minuscule budget, Tarantino and Bender fielded several offers that sounded good but had a catch to them. One producer offered $1.6 million, but only if the ending was changed so that everyone who was dead came back to life, the whole thing having been a hoax or a con of some kind. Another offered $500,000 \u2026 but only if his girlfriend could play Mr. Blonde. (Bender said it was such a bizarre idea that he and Tarantino actually considered it.)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
