The legendary, Quentin Tarantino stopped by Sway in the Morning recently to speak on all things Django Unchained - an honest movie reflecting the times of slavery starring Jamie Foxx, Samuel L. Jackson, Leonardo Dicaprio and Kerry Washington.
Although Sway called the movie his "personal favorite movie in 5 years," critics had something else to say about the N-word being used 109 times. Quentin responded to the criticism, while speaking on advice that Sidney Poitier gave him.
"He told me to 'man up. It sounds like you're afraid of your own movie. Everyone knows what you're doing, we're all professionals.'"

The day Tarantino makes a movie with no backlash, it's the day he makes a bad movie
Did once upon a time in Hollywood get backlash?
Dan Wells his Bruce lee depiction
Well put.
@@danwells4088 oh yes, every thing on the Bruce Lee side, to having sharon Tate portrayed, lots of backlash
Dan Wells Too bad, it’s definitely his worst movie
He created the movie to give black Americans a western hero. To call him racist because he wants to make the movie authentic is absurd.
Heartstung he said this in other interviews
They already had one. Sheriff Bart.
That's not how he makes movies. He tries a find people evil enough to justify a mass killing scene, such as Nazis and slave owners, and only then writes a plot to lead up to it.
Danilo Nunez and your dumbass believed that.
@@travis5125 what's the evil in kill bill?
"The blood in the grass, the flesh in the trees, and the ghosts of the ancestors bearing witness." That was hauntingly poetic of Quentin to say.

he talks like the screenplays he writes

It was.

It's kinda crazy. Both sides cant win. Lol. I love QT. Even the ones with the n words. Especially this one
ChrundletheGreat the crazies constantly call him racist for say the n word.
He is a classic anti-racist which doesn’t vibe with people who disregard context. For example he casually says the n word in this interview.
Pep facts
Pep speak louder
Pep oh I forgot u can’t
Quentins middle name is Jerome, so he can say the N word at least twice a year.
That's fuckin funny ....... altho Jerome is more a white name to me but thats bc im Dutch.

I’ve never met a person that didn’t love Django. It’s just such a satisfying, stylish movie. Maybe some people just don’t like Tarantino’s stylized dialogue and violence, but the movie just works on such a fundamental level. You can’t help but root for the hero trying to save his girl from the literal worst people in this nation’s history.
we got idiots like Spike Lee, who refused to even watch the movie cause he said it would disrespect his ancestors. And Will Smith, who turned down the role of Django cause he didn't think violence was the answer and thought it should be more centered around love instead of vengeance (the irony of Will using violence over a joke at the Oscars). I don't know how much more "love" he wanted in the film, the whole driving force for Django was his love for his wife, the story is centered around a whole ass love story. And even after Will turned down the film, he went on to shade the film in various ways.
I didn’t love it.

It's a movie about racism. Of course there would be some racist words. That's how racism works.

People more offended by a word than people being slaves
I wouldn’t necessarily say more offended, though there does seem to be a disconcerting lack of concern for the plight of modern day slaves in the U.S. Fucking insane that about $90 can “buy” you a human in 2023. America’s beset by a demonic spirit, that’s for sure. The evil is there waiting, as Kerouac wrote
Literal clowns to get mad at a word, well not saying is cool to say the hard R but damn people are way too salty on actual idiotic things.
@@Daniel-jz9td See that? There are many slurs. But those slurs died down. Every slur accept the N word died off. And it’s unfortunately because Black people don’t wanna kill that word by getting rid of it in their lingo.
@@anti-hiphop1933 lol?
@@nicholasviggiano3330 Think about it. How many times do you hear people say beaner or terms like squaw? Even anti black terms like jigabou are rarely ever used. Why is that? Because those words aren’t marketed and advertised. Black ppl need to get their act together.
Why does Django still feel like a new movie even though it came out 9 years ago.

Like Samuel L Jackson said I don’t understand how you could call Quentin a racist when everytime he makes a black person a main character they’re almost always the smartest person in the movie. And to my knowledge he’s never killed off a black main character
@edthehead916 they shot his big black dingus

Warren got killed in Hateful Eight but it’s still a statement against racism because st the end, the only two that can trust each other are him and mannix (Black union major and confederate soldier respectively).

Tarantino is just such a passionate director. The way he just brushes off any criticism is truly amazing. I’d love to sit with him and just talk about Django
30 years ago he was just a broke movie geek working at a video store. Got his big break in the indie scene and has been killing it ever sense. I'm sure he never imagined people would love his movies this much.
You would sit down with Tarantino and all you wanna talk about is django?
Love him or hate him. He gave us a white female samurai and a black cowboy that saves the day.
And he did it all without making it seem forced, its not diversity for the sake of diversity but just a damn good story with some damn good actors.
@@VPraetorian yes, its not "oh we need a black guy in this scene" *throws random character written in 5 minutes into script* "bro why does no one like my character, they must be racist reeeee"

@@charliec.3518 you don’t need a reason to put people of color in a scene, they aren’t plot devices.

They blurred Sway but straight let Quentin say the n-word
I would bet it was sways decision, he doesnt use that word ever he doesnt believe in using it
@@VOH_Billy i fully respect that decision
I dont agree with blurring words when debating their use, but it is his call to make.
well you gotta make the white man look bad right
I think that probably the word Sway used was the the one with the hard ‘R’ and Quentin said what everyone who uses it says, nigga
If the N word wasn’t used pages like Buzzfeed would write articles like “Here’s why Django Unchained is historically wrong” or “Why didn’t Tarantino capture the harsh reality of slavery”
I mean its realistic fiction but for the most part it is fiction in a historical time frame and if buzzfeed really said like why this isn't accurate they really wouldn't have a lot to say tbh cause some of it is fiction so I think It would make more sense for them to say something like django needs to correct some of the things that are wrong you know but your on the right path
@@sammymp4650 his comment was spot on, at least with the second example about capturing the harsh reality of slavery.
Fck buzzfeed man
Exactly

QT breaking out the blaccent for this interview lol
Haha definitely, and you could hear him checking himself on that a few times. Pretty standard human behavior but it always cracks me up
I just love it when Quentin is interviewed respectfully and treated like a person.
trueee
Yeah unlike the channel 4 interview.
yea i love when they dont bring up the whole HARVEY business.
@Wetwork they do though he even had a whole conversation about it with Rogan
Who didn't treat him with respect? Wait... let me guess... some white lady speaking for us minorities
I like how the n-word was distorted every time the interviewer said it but when Quentin said it it wasn't distorted.
grfff3 Yeah noticed that as well, a bit odd, either censor all, or censor none.
I think it's cause he said it too quick.
Its cos its a white mans word and we are taking it back!... :)
Bob Eeir Nice troll attempt. 1/10
@@Gobackto4chan that's not trolling...
It's funny how Quentin just comes across like a huge fanboy of his own movies 😅
He’s said he makes movies that he would want to watch. That’s why he’s one of the best film makers of all time (my favorite personally).
Lol yeah "Jackie Brown is beloved!" Haha I love it
Chris Redfield jackie brown is beloved what
He enjoys his crafts
It's called passion bruh
"I was hoping they would be honest in how people were being treated at the time of slavery". Exactly. No one likes hearing that word but removing it would detract from the film's authenticity.
It would have been weird and lame to tiptoe around it for the whole movie, like, "look at me, I'm being sensitive and inoffensive" rather than just facing the reality of it
if you think tarantino is racist, you have never experienced racism in your life
Well said fella
So you don't see anything suspicous that his movies almost always have gratuitous use of the N-word? It's not like it was only 1 movie that used the N-word
@@micperez819 it's called being realistic..people in America both white and black do in fact use the n word quite often lol
@@brandonchan8667 Realistic? Yeah, what part of Inglorious Bastards, Once Upon a time in Hollywood or Kill Bill realistic? One thing Tarantino movies are never called is realistic. You a 🤡

I love how Quentin Tarantino says nigga and no one bats an eye lol
lol.He has the Pass. We LOVE him!
Randy Vargas plus he's not saying it out of disrespect, he's using it as a piece of history I mean he is a producer for movies that cover that part of history so he has to respect it you know? I personally don't use the word but what I'm trying to say is that there's some people who are aware of the past and actually respect it but there are some that use the term as some sort of insult which of course I would understand why can offend people. It's all about being aware but most of all respecting.
the way he says it in context is more natural then beatin around the bush. i dont beleive the word should hold no voldemort power when they are debating it in this way.its like its turned into a lingual drawing of mohammed
Farzaan Ali Anyone can say anything, just gotta deal with the consequences
It's because of the context and the way that he says it.

Carl I agree. I was like, “what?!” It’s just an inhuman thing to do 😖
Y’all in these replies just wanna say the word with no backlash. His logic is damn it’s a bad word let me say it instead of having the blacks say it - 300 iq bruh dumbasf
Carl I don’t think it was ignorant, he was asking Quentin directly if his discomfort stemmed from him being white and not wanting to appear a certain way, not saying “well no shit you can’t say it cause you’re white”
Great film, covering a very sad time in our history. Quentin Tarantino is an awesome writer, producer and director. All his films have been world class.
Urinal cakes should be made of unflavoured real edible cakes, so you can enjoy stranger’s piss-flavoured cake whenever you desire. You can even play a game of “guess what the person before you drank to make the cake taste like this?” My favourite is Asparagus and Beets Burrito.
I read this in a British voice for some reason
Every Tarantino movie use the N word, slavery or not.
IN the Disney remake they will have walkie-talkies instead of whips.
Nice profile
Fuck accurate depictions of history am I right
The whole movie’s concept is to show how absurd racism is. The entire setup, roles, costumes, basically everything is constructed solely for this purpose alone. Then to argue that he uses the N word in an context when it was regularly used, just show how dumb some people are and that the movie is too sophisticated for their minds.
No joke no lie
Facts. In reality we know it was much worse too.
My favorite scene was when the mob don’t like the sacks they’re wearing on their faces
Thanks Scooby Doo
Zoinks scoob you’re right dude
The man writes a movie about a slave fighting back against racism and oppression and all people can focus on is that a racist character we’re not meant to like said a word that was historically used by slave owners and racist people.
Those same people are now protesting statues that people stopped noticing 50 years ago.
I find it funny how people only focus on that lmao.
Thats an elaborate way of calling them retards.
Catcher Freeman
What's Uppo that’s not fair I’m liberal and I love his movies and I can use logic and reason to see when something is actually problematic or not
I watched this movie 2 months ago, and as Black South African I say he could have made it better by including all of the deleted scenes. I feel like he dumbed it down because he knew some wimps would still cry about it. Notice that there was not one black person getting hung, no black women raped by white masters and no racist songs like 12 years a slave, because that actually happened during slavery. They treated our people like trash and they wanted them to be reminded day by day. But anyways this has to be the greatest film I've ever seen in my life. Django Unchained is a classic. Happy 10th anniversary.
I remember a scene where Leonardo said “send him to nigga heaven” and had dogs eat a black dude alive. I’d say that’s worse than showing em hung or racist songs 🤣 great movie tho 10/10
i agree with what you say. but in this case i feel it would be unneeded. it didnt shy from the darkness but at the end of the day your suposed to leve feeling good. rooting for django to win and root for the racists to all die. its not 12 years a slave that make you leave angry at the injustice. thats why they poke fun and make jokes about such a dark theam. because with out that it becomes to heavy a film to enjoy the way he wanted it to be enjoyed. so adding more darkness of the slave trade while true, wont bring about the flow that the creator wanted.
@@keyboardcommando7000 but it wasn't actually shows on camera if I remember correctly.
@@tijgertjekonijnwordopgegeten Correct, at that point the camera was tracking Monsieur Candie who was using this opportunity to focus 100% on Doc Schulz and Django, looking for any sign of recoiling from the atrocity. He had already seemed suspicious of these two gentlemen that claimed to be newcomers to the slave fighting rings, and if they couldn't handle this sight maybe he was right and they were not who they claimed to be.
You black Africans sold the African Americans 🤣
"... Using the N-word in Django" is about as outrageous as finding out that your hands have fingers.
This is legitimately now in my top 5 sentences ever spoken by a human being.

"Being a white man? No, being human"
Thats the mark of someone who doesn't see race as something to identify you by. I think that was awesome.
In the core, we are all humans. In the surface, we are short, tall, fat, slim, blonde, brunette, and, of course, white, black, asian, african, euro, whatever...
Phisical/visible traits are a useful, practical features to identify people by, that's just the way it is.
Now, since those traits are external features, they can only, logically, serve as a medium to external identification of someone.
By themselves, those traits have no possible manner to significantly refer to any non-supperficial characteristics a human may have.
Then it comes history, and we get to have some knowledge about what certain race or region or culture or country or village or whatever reunion of individuals has been doing for the last x ammount of years/decades/centuries/milenia and we get to notice their behaviour, we get to notice certain patterns, and we also notice that they combine certain external traits with certain internal features (culture), which combined makes them unique among all the other groups and thus diferenciate them.
That's when we can make the asociation and it would be a valid one, because it is supported by truth: white/conquerors/capitalism, black/slaven/hunters, asians/technology/smartness, muslins/religious/radicalism, jews/big noses/business, you name it.
Up to this point, this categorization-so-to-speak has nothing to do with racism, or at least that's what I believe.
Racism emerges when someone prejudicely takes a person's external trait as an innequivocal sign of some of that same person's internal features (personality, character, culture, believes, whatever...), by so ignoring that one does not logically determines the other; ignoring that while the external traits of every person are absolute since the day they are born, his/her internal features are circunstantial and bound to experiences.
That, you could call harmless racism: just an assumption which is, to some extend, founded in history, by facts
Now there's a harmful racism too, which takes place when someone deliverately acts to downplay the human quality of another person, based directly on their harmless racism conceptions (this is: based on the prejudices they already have in their minds about this or that skin color, this or that nationality, this or that religion being an innequivocal sign of what's in the core of any given person (personality, character, culture, believes, whatever...).
In other words, racism can be seen both as an act of prejudicial belittleling (by which one person downplays the human quality of another person based in previous conceptions, right or wrong ones) and as a work of intellect more or less based in facts (an associaion of a group of both internal and external features of any given person, directly influenced by what we know or we believe we know historically about that particular person).
This is how racism is forever linked to history, and I think I have also made clear how it might not necessarely be ill-intentioned all the time, for it could be just an act of mere practical referencing, and it could be rooted with real malicious intentions.
Slimnooze we didn’t need an essay
@@DK-gl3ih I made your homework, boy, you should be grateful...
@@slimnooze This identifying by external features can be innocent but the shadow it casts is a big one. Let us not forget racism not only stems from a social animalistic instinct (believe it or not, packs of wolves will often abandon wolves who do not look like them) but from human fear. Those who use racism based off fear are ultimately angry, confused delusional beings who are afraid. If someone truly believes every person of a certain skin color is bad they are not only delusional but probably not bright critical thinkers to begin with.
@@Cheddar_Wizard Absolutely agree.

Wasn't hating on Quentin, just this interview.
People think there's no good of that word, but Samuel Clemens used it a lot in his novels... For the good of "the blacks" and their plight.
Or the director who directed his staff to all call Oprah that word to get a real reaction in the color purple.
Big fudging whoop, call me what you want... Joker, cracker, honkey... They all have their own connotation and meaning, ask me if I care...
I've been saved from real violence by black men, been in the ghetto, yet people respected me because I respected them.

I just rewatched it the other day, and I have no idea how people watch this movie and think it's somehow disrespectful to the history of racism and slavery.
It's literally a movie about how horrible the slavers were and a slave rising up, fulfilling his potential, killing every racist asshole he can find, and riding off into the sunset with his dignity and wife reclaimed.
To me it's much more powerful than modern movies and TV shows that spend half their runtime rehashing left wing talking points. I just saw the new Ms. Marvel show as well, and they literally have the evil white cops cackling about how they already have all Muslim gathering places under surveillance, because they are probably all terrorists. It's such a poor caricature and only stupid people would find stuff like that compelling.
Fvfuu
It's like a sick grounded fairytale that's done so purposefully. The story of Django mimicks the legend of Brunhild(a) and part of that fact is pointed out in the movie itself. That mixture of fantastical story in a grounded world is what helps make Django's success feel even more epic in scale. Django absolutely does walk through the hellish wall of fire for Brunhilde.
Now this is how intelligent people talk about slavery. Need to multiply the discussion by many people. Take note black and white folks. Just talk.
Having ignorant, broken, characters use racist language, is always an anti-racist act.
Absolute facts ! Its why I like outlandish comedy, highlighting a ridiculous scenario to speak on a real topic is the perfect light for it
It's like how most war films are technically anti war films
Especially since most of the characters that do that are portrayed as the villains!
Absolute truth.
You mean like the classic Blazing Saddles written by Mel Brooks with Richard Pryor’s assistance.
Dude: “They have no shoes on?”
Quentin: “Oh yes, correct”
Me: (Thinking more and more about Quentins foot fetish)
Bradford Brenner sameeee lmaoo
HE GLANCED AT THE CAMERA WHEN HE SAID THAT
You know, i just watched once upon a time in hollywood and i saw so many peoples feet and i looked at my girlfriend and said “jesus quentin has a fetish.” Glad im not the only one who thought that😂
That's not "dude" lol, that's Sway
@@mikepatterson3168 its been confirmed lol
Incredible film director/writer made a masterpiece of a film.
Quentin Tarantino's dialogue in Django Unchained, told the story, perfectly.
Divide and and conquer is for the birds.
Tarantino with an excellent comment there, he was asked if he felt trepidation because he was a white man doing that, Tarantino responds, no I felt trepidation as a human doing that. Legend.

I would like to add that I feel he is a legend here as well. Because I don't think it's been stated enough.

Lmao they censor sway saying the word but not Quentin that’s actually hilarious
So people can see that tarantino used it and start a war in comments lol.but i think they censored him because he used the hard R
Sway doesnt use it he censors himself
@@10oner Yeah, he stops himself
Sway dropped the hard R, Q used the A..
No, Sway actually speaks like that. lol
if he didnt make them say it as much people would have accused him of trying to make the white people look good. no, making those actors say the word so much makes you feel uncomfortable, because its SUPPOSED to. the whole point is to show how shocking it is and how we in the modern age can take it for granted how bad it was, and tarantino went easy!
Weyoun VI definitely the most truest comment here!
Weyoun VI it was also bad for the whites in Ireland and before the blacks came over.
My nigga wtf is up with ya profile pic 😂😂
Watch true romance he wrote that and it was racist for no reason. Remember it app comes from his mind what he's thinking about. Love the guy and his movies and hope he's not racist but watching this movie made me think.
Pray for Harambe It was shitty for the Irish. They were discriminated against (partly for being Catholic). Common Misconception, they were not slaves. They were however what is known as indentured servants. Indentured Servitude is kind of like Slavery. It’s pretty much where an “indenturee” works for laborer, it could be debt, a punishment, etc., it’s almost always unfree labor (unfree as in Liberty, not monetarily free, although they probably wouldn’t be paid either), and the laborer can sell the indenturee’s contract off to a third party or whoever for a price. Anyway the Irish were always hated in Early America, something they adopted from the British, until they weren’t that is. Irish were mainly able to change their image by assimilating, working and joining the army and pushing the hate onto another immigrant group, Like the Italians! So the Irish weren’t once hated, but not anymore. Except if you’re like an old Italian person. 🤷♂️.
Django Unchained is one of the greatest movies of all time. Nothing has ever made the evil of American slavery feel as real to me as the mandingo fight scene. It made me cry the first time. When you realize how depraved and evil the culture of the southern elites in the early to mid 1800s was, it makes you appreciate how far this country has come. Nothing like it has happened anywhere else in all of history.
@@aaayyy1953 ancient slavery, American slavery, and modern slavery are three different things. Ancient slavery was usually what we now call employment. American slavery and modern slavery are very similar. Some forms of ancient slavery resembled American slavery. What is particularly unique about the US is that the free population fought a war against each other to free the enslaved population and even went so far as to fully integrate them.
Slaves who built the pyramids had it worse... Sorry. They could dye by the hundreds or thousands and the ones above them could care less because they were replaceable. Slave owners in the south only had a handful and needed to keep them alive if they wanted the work to be done.
@@LambertBowden56 it's not about who had it worse. The key point that makes slavery bad is when the people in the system don't have a choice, which hasn't always been the case historically. Also you're dangerously close to the argument that American slavery apologists use: "some slaveowners were kind and treated their slaves well".
@@paul_warner idk if that’s “apologist” if it actually happened. Is that in the same argument like as “Nazi apologist?” That some treated Jews nice? Not saying any of it is good obviously but right? Or what

Sway says the n-word: gets bleeped
Tarantino says the n-word: it's all good.
😅
He got his pass from Sam Jackson. That’s irrevocable 🤣🤣🤣
Sway used it twice, first with a hard r, which was censored, then with an a, which wasn't. Tarantino also used an a, which is why he wasn't censored.
@@FestorFreak So if you have a New York accent, it's ok to say it?
@@bender_8282 Lol, i would say no, but that's my personal preference. I don't say it regardless, but i'm not going to tell other people not to. So long as you aren't using it in a derogatory manner, i really don't care. People can decide for themselves if they want to say it. Some people don't like it regardless of who says it, some people don't care who says it, some people think only certain people should say it. You'll never get everyone to agree, so let people make their own call.
@@bender_8282 Why? I already said people can decide for themselves. I don't need to tell anyone anything. They can censor whatever they want, it isn't my channel.

This is actually a great video, sway is way beyond cool, he has so many people on his show. Awesome for you Sway, a master at work.
Damn Quentin rich as hell but he still wears shirts bought from a Mexican yardsale

I really like this interviewer. I like how he asks a question and then just sits back and lets the person talk. Unlike guys like Jimmy Fallon who has to interrupt his guests every 10 seconds.
Nah, he interrupts to maybe say something like “yeah” or “Oooh” to show that he is listening, besides....you can’t really compare a radio show host with a TV show host, it’s just really different
Interviewer?? Nigga dis Sway!! Where have you been?. Shidd u know Jimmy
"Thasa fly flick" Lol Quentin kept talking blacker and blacker the longer this interview went on haha
Chris Redfield was noticing the same thing... always happens when his interviewer is black. As he relaxes and gets loose he starts talking black. 🤣

Quentin becomes Qwentine when he is with black folks.
Lol idk why that's funny
You put my thoughts into words
I feel like if someone asked me a trivia question along the lines of "is this person black or white, name is Quentin Jerome", 10 times out of 10 I am going with black.
Actually he becomes Q’uentin
He was brought up around a lot of black people, so I guess it's his old habits that return when he's around black folk.
His chin reminds me of Eustace from Courage lmaoooo

“Don’t be afraid of your own movie.” That’s what I’m taking away from this interview.
Justin Cruz you’re goddamn right
"that makes you a modern day slave master" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Couldn’t have said it better myself, all this man did was create a movie that was historically honest and accurate to the period of slavery. There is no universe where Tarantino is a racist

joao. Youre a moron.
Because as a non american I made a question about a society I do not comprehend? Surely. You on your hand instead of clarifying a legitimate question just decided to offend me back, so perhaps I am a moron but you are a jackass.
what makes you think your question was legitimate ? Because you asked it ? Its a stupid question, you might not understand why but that doesnt make it any less stupid.
That’s so weird, when I grew up we learned about slavery in great detail from probably 4th grade until I graduated high school. Honestly I learned more about that subject than anything else. I’m always shocked when people act like it is a hidden history. It was quite literally the most emphasized thing in the 1980s and 90s
True. But it will never be enough for some until it's the singular only thing taught in schools. And even then, it probably won't be enough. Funny, I have a Turkish friend. He was never taught about the Barbary slave trade. Not one mention of it in school or society... and that completely dwarfs the Atlantic slave trade
Depends on the school and teachers. Some place don't teach it much
Not in my era at school and not in most red state schools. I’m glad your school did address it. Now the right wing racist apologists want to prohibit any education about Black history.
