Django Unchained
Quentin Tarantino is entering one of the darkest times in its history for his next major film. After taking on Nazi Germany with the Brad Pitt-led band of "Inglourious Basterds," WME, Tarantino's agency, confirmed that he's finished writing the script for "Django Unchained," a Spaghetti Western that, according to Tarantino Archives (via Indiewire), will pay homage to Italian director Sergio Corbucci's original "Django" and Japanese filmmaker Takashi Miike's "Sukiyaki Western Django."
Tarantin had this to say about the new film:
"I want to explore something that really hasn't been done. I want to do movies that deal with America's horrible past with slavery and stuff but do them like spaghetti westerns, not like big issue movies. I want to do them like they're genre films, but they deal with everything that America has never dealt with because it's ashamed of it, and other countries don't really deal with because they don't feel they have the right to. But I can deal with it all right, and I'm the guy to do it. So maybe that's the next mountain waiting for me."
Then, a couple of days ago, Indiewire quoted a source who had apparently read the script, as saying,
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter
