\u2018True Romance\u2019<\/em> Commentary<\/a>.\u00a0 Before you click over, here are three of my favorites and some thoughts on each…<\/p>\nIt wasn\u2019t specified in the script that Elvis (Val Kilmer) would never really be seen all that clearly, and he was worried that the actor would be upset by Scott\u2019s choice. He heard later that Kilmer loved it.<\/strong> (This was an interesting choice that many actor’s wouldn’t have liked. Credit to Val Kilmer for seeing the merit in playing it that way. – Craig)<\/p>\nHe (Tarantino) is a huge fan of Scott\u2019s Revenge<\/em> (1990) which is the correct response to that film.\u00a0<\/strong> (I am a huge fan of Revenge.\u00a0 It is probably Tony Scott and Kevin Costner’s most underrated film. – Craig)<\/p>\nHe credits Scott with doing what a director should with the adaptation and make it their own. Clarence dying in the script makes sense to Tarantino, but Scott\u2019s film is far more successful as a fairy tale of sorts meaning Clarence needed to live. \u201cIf I had made the movie he would have died. It would have been the same script but it would have been different. And in mine I think it would have worked. But in his, no, in his I think he was right.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0 (In Scott’s film Clarence lives, in Tarantino’s script Clarence dies.\u00a0 Both endings could work, but I’m glad Tony Scott stuck to his guns.\u00a0 Like him, I wanted to see them get away. – Craig)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"True Romance doesn’t get enough love.\u00a0 Tarantino’s script.\u00a0 Directed by Tony Scott.\u00a0 And look at that cast: Christian Slater, Patricia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":912,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,51,54,65],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28194","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-celebs","category-crime","category-movies","category-trivia"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28194","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/912"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=28194"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28194\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28195,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28194\/revisions\/28195"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=28194"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=28194"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=28194"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
