He was damn cynical. His reviews were a cross between early Howard Stern and what Travis Bickle might have been if he was a movie critic… the porn critic was very, very funny. He was very rude, you know. He was swearing. He used racist slurs. But it was very funny,” he added. The director reported that he died in his late 30s: “It was unknown for a while, but now I’ve done more research and I think it was complications from alcoholism.” The film called “Film Critic” will take place in California in 1977. In the film, the porn magazine in which the main character works will be called The Popstar Pages. Tarantino clarified that he does not plan to invite Brad Pitt or Leonardo DiCaprio to the casting of the stars of his previous film “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”. “I haven’t decided yet, but it will be someone at the age of 35. It will definitely be a new lead actor,” he said. Quentin Tarantino is one of the most famous Hollywood directors, screenwriter and producer.
