An ‘Inglourious’ party with Quentin Tarantino and his stars
Only in Hollywood

LOS ANGELES—Eli Roth, who plays “The Bear Jew” in Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglourious Basterds,” was scheduled to attend and represent the film in the Cinemanila International Film Festival last October, but canceled when storm Ondoy hit the country.
“Tease the hell out of Eli,” a grinning Tarantino told us at the DVD release party of “Inglourious Basterds” last Tuesday evening at the Holmby Hills house of Lawrence Bender, who produced virtually all of the filmmaker’s movies, from “Reservoir Dogs” and “Pulp Fiction” to “Inglourious…” Eli was somewhere in Lawrence’s backyard, which was jammed with popular faces.
Quentin, a great raconteur who tells stories as good as he shows them on film, added, “I asked Eli, ‘Are you scared of a little rain?’” We know that the director braved “a little rain” in Manila in 2007, when flooded streets forced him and his companion, Cinemanila founding festival director, Tikoy Aguiluz, to take a pedicab to Malacañang. He made it in time to change from his wet sandals to formal shoes before he accepted a Cinemanila Lifetime Achievement Award from President Macapagal-Arroyo.
We asked Quentin if we’ll get to hear in the “Inglourious” DVD a line with the words, “Tagalog” and “Filipino,” that was in his original script (but wasn’t in the film’s theatrical version). The director, who was holding court among several guests, including our friends, Fil-Am Alan del Rosario (an “Oscars Designer Challenge” finalist) and actor Josh Winot, said no, because he did away with that line during the filming. Our Italian colleague got curious about the Tagalog mention and asked Quentin to elaborate. With a smile, he gamely obliged and proceeded to explain that the line would have been spoken by Nazi Colonel Landa (Christoph Waltz, in a performance that makes him the leading Best Supporting Actor contender in the current awards season) as he interrogated the captured Lieutenant Aldo (Brad Pitt), a Nazi hunter.
Enthusiasm
Quentin has already elaborated on that line in our previous interview, but we enjoyed listening to him again, because he told the story with the same enthusiasm. What we also find fascinating was that he remembered the exact dialogue and recited it, after setting up the scene in which Lieutenant Aldo, an American, gave himself away when he tried to pass himself off as an Italian:
“Colonel Landa: Italian? Really? What could you have possibly been thinking?
Quentin’s audience at the party especially enjoyed the story because of the way he relished narrating it. Told that moviegoers shouldn’t have to wait for a long time again before they get to see another Tarantino film, he said that he was going to do a new film soon, before he shoots “Kill Bill, Vol. 3.”
Aside from Quentin, easily among the most popular in the crowd of notables was Sacha Baron Cohen, who came with his fiancée, Isla Fisher. We all laughed when Sacha bumped into our male colleague, who was the lucky recipient of a lap dance by the actor, in character as the flamboyant Austrian fashion journalist, Bruno, during an interview. As himself at the bash, wearing a cap over his curly hair, Sacha engaged in amusing banter with our friend, who’ll probably remember and chuckle over the lap dance for the rest of his life.
Sacha revealed to us that when he filmed those naughty “Bruno” scenes with Fil-Am actor, Clifford Bañagale, who plays Diesel, his lover, there was a little “accident”: Sacha inadvertently inserted something somewhere, but Clifford, a trouper even though he was experiencing discomfort, finished the scenes.
The “Borat” actor warmed up to the idea of a film tapping one of his funny guises, Ali G, a British wannabe gangsta rapper. He said Olive, his daughter with Isla, the “Confessions of a Shopaholic” star who has a busy career of her own, is now 2. Isla said she has just finished filming “Rango,” her movie with Johnny Depp.
Spoof
Later, we saw Sacha and Judd Apatow chatting. The two have worked together in “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.” Judd will reportedly produce a Sherlock Holmes spoof, with Sacha as the famous detective and Will Ferrell as Watson.
We came face to face with Quentin’s Colonel Landa, Christoph himself, who is simply brilliant in “Inglourious.” Pointing at his beard, he said he grew the facial hair to play the villain in “The Green Hornet.” Christoph is fluent in “three and a half languages” (his words)—German, French, English and some Italian—which, coupled with his acting talent, made him perfect for Colonel Landa. Quentin was reportedly ready to shelve “Inglourious” because they couldn’t find the right actor to play the Nazi officer—until Christoph came to audition.
The tented yard was teeming with directors: Ridley Scott got us excited about his “Robin Hood,” with Russell Crowe in the title role and Cate Blanchett as Maid Marian. Ron Howard said he was taking a break during the holidays. Michael Bay disclosed that it’s all systems go for the filming of “Transformers 3” next year, with Shia LaBeouf and, yes, the controversial Megan Fox, who uttered some headline-grabbing quotes about the director when “Transformers 2” was released.
Speaking of directors, Josh Brolin happily reported to us that he made it possible for Woody Allen and the Coen brothers, Ethan and Joel, to finally meet, sit down and converse. The Coens, taciturn at interviews, were talkative in their meeting with Woody, according to Josh. “They’re talkative in real life,” Josh said of the siblings who directed him to acclaim in “No Country for Old Men.”
Josh finished filming Woody’s “You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger.” We shared a laugh recounting how Woody, who likes to shoot in overcast weather, had to resort to fake rain in, of all places, London. “That was surreal, wasn’t it?” Josh described the day we visited the set in Notting Hill as he shot a scene with Freida Pinto (“Slumdog Millionaire”). It was a beautiful sunny day, but Woody wanted a rainy look, so a crane dropped lots of fake raindrops outside a restaurant where Josh and Freida did a scene.
Josh’s wife, Diane Lane, reported that she’s filming “Secretariat.” Also at the party was Elliott Gould, the ex-husband of Josh’s stepmom, Barbra Streisand.
Another Diane—Kruger—said that she plays an illegal immigrant from Serbia in “Unknown White Male,” so she’s busy learning how to speak with a Serbian accent. Liam Neeson and January Jones (“Mad Men”) are her costars.
Another classic beauty, Jacqueline Bisset, reminisced about “The Deep,” her horror-thriller film set in Bermuda waters. She talked about how, after filming that movie, she stayed away from the water for a long time.
Heart and soul
Other guests included Chanel-clad Melanie Laurent, who is the heart and soul of “Inglourious”—she was excited about recently buying a house in France; Sharon Stone; the legendary music producer
and composer, Quincy Jones, conversing with Fil-Am actress and producer, Cassandra Gava; Richard Chamberlain; Vincent Price; Jonah Hill and Don Rickles.
When we finally bumped into Eli, who’s also a director, we ribbed him about backing out of the Cinemanila film fest. He said he hoped the Philippines is coping after Ondoy.

Tiffany Limos and Quentin Tarantino
After the Cannes film festival I went back to visit in Texas. (And I did go to the premiere of Inglorious Basterds there. If you read below at my other blog entries you'll find the CANNES blog.) Then I went to Los Angeles to visit with Vincent Gallo and Francis Ford Coppola for the premiere of Tetro. Vincent called me while he was on a road trip in Texas and I was about to meet up with him but I just couldn't, I had too much work to do. And we missed each other in Cannes so ... he suggested that I come to the premiere of Tetro. It was fun. I saw Andrew Durham and Sofia Coppola. I also saw Melodie McDaniel! I hadn't seen Francis Ford Coppola for a while so it was great to be reunited with everyone. Vincent was such a lady killer... it was hard to talk to him afterwards... Then the following day I had to meet with Spike Lee at the Mondrian... then I had to meet with Tarantino to talk about this project we are doing in the Philippines. But guess what? The car broke down and I was having such a hard time with the rental. I took a picture of the car so they'd believe me because I as also supposed to meet Vincent that weekend! So Spike I'd see another time but man I had to talk to Tarantino about this project. Hmmm, so my friend Aleta and her boyfriend Russell gave me a ride. HA!!!! Uh, but for some reason Q is not opening the gate! And I am like man this dude!!!! Then I was like whatever, lets go grab something to eat, then I get a phone call and I'm like yo!!!! and Quentin is like I'm sorry I was doing an interview with GQ and I told them to tell me when it was 9pm and they fucked up! They fucked up! And all I could think of was YEAH RIGHT in my mind! After all the drama I had been through earlier in the day. I figured it was a good excuse or lie. So we turned around and I met up with my buddy. But I was checking out the news for Inglorious Basterds and I found this GQ article and he WAS NOT LYING and I was laughing so hard reading it. I thought I would share.
Quentin Tarantino's GQ article and excuse for not meeting me on time! HA!!!

Questions to Fans...
I was having a conversation with a friend of mine and he told me that there aren't any good movies that have the main character portraying a writer?!
What do ya'll think?
Can you guys list movies that have had writers as main characters that were great movies? And do you know of some that aren't so good?
He says that its not visual enough and I say who the fuck cares?
I think if other films are bad starring writers, that doesn't mean you can't create a great story? I don't believe in limitations and that school of thought just doesn't mesh with me.
Can't wait to hear your responses. I'm also going to post this on myspace too.
Love,
Tiffany
