“Sex is not part of my vision of cinema”: Tarantino explains why there are no sex scenes in his films

If Quentin Tarantino never refrains from integrating sequences of graphic violence (sometimes particularly bloody) into his feature films, and many of his films are banned from cinemas, the director of Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill almost never got sex. scenes in his works.

A rather surprising feature of his filmography, especially when we know his provocative side, but which still shows itself when we consider his films. In addition to Boulevard de la Morte and the series between Robert De Niro and Bridget Fonda in Jackie Brown (as recalled) variety), similar scenes with the filmmaker are rare.

He was recently asked about this on the microphone of the Spanish site MacawTarantino confirmed that indeed he avoids going into this terrain as much as possible:

“It’s true, sex is not part of my vision of cinema”he said.

“To be honest, it’s really painful to do sex scenes in real life, everyone is so tense. And if it was a bit difficult to do before, it’s even more so today. If I ever had to do a sex scene. It was essential to the story, I would do it, but so far it hasn’t been. Required”.

An interesting take from the filmmaker, who is currently in full gear for his tenth and final feature film, The Movie Critic, which will focus on the 1977 film critic.
