Secondly, the Manson movie has already generated some raised eyebrows because of the decision to include Roman Polanski as a character, given our knowledge about Polanski now.
Let me reiterate: the rumor is that Tarantino’s Manson murders movie might be on thin ice following his tumultuous week of bad publicity.
Tarantino issued an apology for the interview, and he and Thurman both did some damage control after the Kill Bill story, but rumor has it his new movie that’s about Charles Manson but not really about Charles Manson might be in trouble.
If Tarantino is the subject of any more scrutiny in the coming weeks, Sony could be second-guessing their decision to finance his movie.
