約翰豆豆龍講到創作理念總是 spout 不下來
You can hate Roth’s movies all you want, but you have to give this guy credit as a personality. Roth can talk and out story-tell the best of them. I’ve seen him in person many times, and he has a command of almost any audience. There is no denying that he has a charismatic film geek charm.
If Tarantino can exploit this, instead of having Roth spout [off] the normal over-wordy dialogue, it could end up [being] the surprise performance of the film.
On the other hand, Hunter wanted me to mention that it is “the worst decision ever.” And honestly, he might very well be right. It could go easily go either way.
