Quentin said, ‘You know what? It’ll be the biggest controversy of the film. But what happened was the squib on Harvey went right off after he shot Lawrence, so he went down, but my squib went off anyway, so I went down. “Harvey Keitelwas supposed to shoot Lawrence Tierney, then shoot me, then get squibbed. Or did they? “It was a mistake,” Penn later explained to Empire. Nobody shot nice guy EddieĪt the film’s climax, Joe Cabot (Lawrence Tierney), Nice Guy Eddie (Chris Penn, Sean’s younger brother, who died in 2006) and Mr White (Harvey Keitel) blow each other away in a Mexican standoff. By the time he made it back to set and opened the boot Baltz was “very sweaty and very pissed off”. Long story short: Madsen tore off around bumpy downtown Los Angeles making a pit stop at Taco Bell along the way. “He woke me up and said, ‘I wanna get in your trunk’,” revealed Madsen in an interview for the 2003 DVD release. Poor Kirk Baltz got more than he bargained for when he asked Madsen for some “research” help ahead of their big scene together. That’s where it came from.” …And he really did kidnap the cop It just popped into my head at the last second.

“I remembered this crazy little dance that Jimmy Cagney did in a movie that I saw. In the script it said, ‘Mr Blonde maniacally dances around.’ And I kept thinking, ‘What the f**k does that mean? Like Mick Jagger,or what? What the f**k am I gonna do?’” recalled Madsen at Tribeca. But the iconic scene could have turned out very differently. The moment when Michael Madsen’s character slices off a cop’s lug is soundtracked by Stealers Wheel’s catchy 1972 track ‘Stuck In The Middle With You’. Harvey was in first class, we were in coach,” revealed Tarantino at Tribeca. “We had one weekend and Harvey paid for me and Lawrence to fly to New York. But he also paid for a quickie casting trip to NYC. It’s well known that he discovered Tarantino’s script, liked it and agreed to sign as co-producer so the big studios would take notice. If it weren’t for Harvey Keitel, Reservoir Dogs probably wouldn’t have been made. At one point, he and Michael Madsen “had to be separated” when they went in for “a big bear hug” and got stuck. “They used to have to hose us down in the parking lot at the end of the day,” he told Entertainment Weekly. It got so hot on set in the LA warehouse that Tim Roth, Mr Orange, frequently became glued to the floor by the copious amounts of fake blood he was drenched in. I fired him, and the whole crew burst into applause.” “In the last 20 minutes of the first week we had a blowout and got into a fist fight. “By the end of the week everybody on set hated Tierney – it wasn’t just me,” he added.
He just needed to be sedated,” Tarantino told the Guardian in 2010. But he took things to a whole new level on Reservoir Dogs.
Tough-guy Lawrence Tierney, who played Joe Cabot, was well known in Hollywood as a difficult actor to work with. Basically, he got me drunk.” Joe Cabot punched Tarantino on set “Then we went back to my flat, got more beer and proceeded to read the entire script… every part about 10 times because we were hammered by then. “He started to write the script out on beer mats,” says Roth. Until Tarantino got him totally pissed, that is. And 25 years ago, he refused to read for the part of Mr Orange. I’m crap at it,” Roth told People magazine earlier this month. Tarantino got Tim Roth pissed for his audition “The f**king guy who did ‘Last House On The Left’ walked out! My movie’s too tough for him?” boggled Tarantino at Tribeca. The director led a mass walkout of a R’eservoir Dogs’ screening at Sitges Film Festival in 1992. Tarantino’s love of gore can be overbearing at the best of times, but you’d expect horror legends to cope. Tarantino’s response? “So long as nobody was making money out of my s**t!” Wes Craven couldn’t handle it But that didn’t stop him, three years later and at the tender age of 18, from staging his own version in Killarney– with all profits going to charity. The Irish-German heartthrob was only a fledgling thespian when ‘Reservoir Dogs’ hit cinemas back in 1992. That felt pretty good.” It got Michael Fassbender into acting It’s like poetry.’ Nobody had ever called my work poetic before, and by a poet no less. “He gave me one of the first profound compliments on the script,”he added. “I had Tom Waits read the Madonna speech, just so I could hear Tom Waits say those lines.” Luckily for QT, the gravel-voiced legend didn’t mind wasting his time.
“A lot of really wild people came in,” Tarantino revealed during a special cast reunion at Tribeca Film Festival this year.
