Finally, we've been waiting forever for this movie to be on your channel because we knew you would be blown away by it. I know you like to know some interesting things about these movies, so here's a few fun facts for you. 1. The director is Tony Scott, the brother of the legendary director Ridley Scott. 2. The part of Alabama was originally supposed to be played by Joan Cusack ( John Cusack's sister ), and then bounced over to Drew Barrymore, but eventually was given to Patricia Arquette. ( Sister in law of Countney Cox from FRIENDS ) 3. The opening scene in the theater finished with a theater usher walking down the aisle with a guard dog yelling at the customers to leave. The usher was played by Jack Black. But in the final edit the scene was left out of the movie because of time constraints. 4. The mere mention of Elvis Presley was the only concession allowed by the Presley family estate. The producers were served a cease and desist order by Presley attorneys, not to use any of his actual music or his likeness. This is why you never actually see Elvis's face in any of the scenes where Christian Slater is talking to Val Kilmer in the bathroom. The idea that he's talking to Elvis's ghost is simply implied there. 5. Some of the props that Gary Oldman used to bring Drexel's look together were actually the props he used on Brahm Stoker's Dracula. Namely, the fake colored contacts in his eye. The dreadlocks were created by the same costume designer who made his wigs that he used on Dracula too. 6. Originally, he wrote True Romance in 1984, and filmed it and starred in the role of Clarence. The original version was titled " My Best Friend's Birthday". 7. True Romance was supposed to be Tarantino s directorial debut movie, but he sold the script to Tony Scott and he focused on Reservoir Dogs instead. 8. The idea you spoke about on this video reaction about how you thought maybe the whole story was a dream that Clarence had or a hallucination was actually a real idea that Tarantino had for this movie. But he felt the script was much too long to fit in one movie. So he split it in two parts ( kinda like how split Kill Bill in two parts ) and instead he used the crazy violent dream concept for another script he wrote, and sold it to Oliver Stone. You might have seen that movie, it's called Natural Born Killers. Tarantino absolutely hated the changes that Stone made to the script, so he completely disowned any connections to that movie. Seriously, to this day, interviewers are prewarmed NOT to ask him about it. , 9. Val Kilmer desperately tried to get Tony Scott to cast him in the lead role of Clarence. But rumors have it that he had issues with Kilmer when they worked together on Top Gun, and he was turned away from the lead and it was given to Slater instead. 10. The movie is a cult favorite movie lovers and critics despite it being a massive failure financially. After costing $12.6 million to make, it barely earned $12.5 million globally, so in the end it turned a profit of less than a hundred grand. 11. The role of Clarence was originally supposed to be played by the star of Revenge of the Nerds, Robert Caradine. He turned it down. ( Whatta dumbass 😂 ) 12. The original ending had a tragic ending, Clarence died in the shootout and Alabama flees to Cancun, Mexico by herself and is pregnant with Clarence s baby and has to raise him as a widow. I have many more facts, but that's all I have time for right now. Have a good day! ☺️

In the original script for Reservoir Dogs, Mr. White reveals, in his flashback scene, that he is partnered up with her. I've seen a lot of reactors ask if Walken is Blue Lou. Nope. Blue Lou is Samuel L Jackson. Walken played Vincenzo Coccotti. Anyway, pure brill as always, Dawn, cheers!

That was so satisfying! I watched "Popcorn in Bed's" reaction to this movie a few days ago and I knew she would not like it very much but I assumed she would still understand the film. She did not understand it at all! Dawn on the other hand had almost the same reaction as my girlfriend when I first showed her True Romance. My gf is a tough critic on movies but she immediately LOVED this. Her favorite scene (to my amazement) was Patricia Arquette's brutal fight with James Gandolfini. It seemed that Dawn really got into that scene as well. It is a frightening, gruesome, extremely suspenseful fight and I agree with Dawn and my gf that the moment Arquette is beating him with that shotgun is epic and animalistic. Among the MANY aspects of True Romance that I love are: the fight I just mentioned, Gary Oldman deserved an Academy Award nomination, the scene between Walken and Hopper is one of the most suspenseful conversations I have ever seen (Walken described acting that scene as being similar to performing Shakespeare), the shootout at the end is completely insane and on par with John Woo's best work, the music is brilliant and overall my favorite aspect of the whole movie is the cast. True Romance has one of the best ensemble casts in cinema history (I would rank the cast up there with the casts of Lord of the Rings, Heat, and Tombstone). I could talk forever about this film but I'm sure there will be much more articulate commenters here who will have just as much to say. I will end by saying that I believe this is Tarantino's 2nd best film after Inglorious Bastards (I count it as equally a Tony Scott film and a Tarantino film). I have seen somewhere around 4500 movies and I love making lists ranking them---True Romance is currently in my TOP 15 of all time list.

The soundtrack is a reference to the 70s film Badlands. It has some similar themes and an almost identical soundtrack. Terence Malick is arguably the genius who put that music to images that seem disconnected but actually work beautifully.

But the images in True Romance are way more extreme and violent than in Badlands. But yes, the principle remains true.

Quentin Tarantino said he was impressed by Christopher Walken's performance where he accurately delivered every word, including the 'uhms' from the script.

I don't know much about the pain from a bullet, so aside from the penetration of ones skin, or even the shrapnel dispersing inside oneself (if that is the type of bullet used vs it stays intact), what did make me understand a bit about what actors are portraying in that moment that did convince me to not look into it any more than I could have, lol, is this... the temperature of a fired bullet can be up to 500°F. So it's not so much a hot potato that bounces between your hands before you throw it away that you feel, it's a hot nugget lodged inside of you that you can't get rid of and is searing the flesh it's in contact with.

One of my favorite films, of any genre. It completely turns the Hollywood romance film on its head, but keeps you swept up in that "love at first sight" whirlwind. And there are so many quotable lines from some of the best actors to ever grace the screen.

I think that, in Reservoir Dogs, from the "ear scene" to the Coconut song is the best writing ever...in movies, in literature, in anything. I watched it with my dad on vhs back in the nineties. Neither of us said a word until Orange shot Blonde. My dad actually cheered like a sporting event. Anyways...

This was written by Quentin Tarantino, but it was directed by Tony Scott and it feels more like a Tony Scott movie than Tarantino. The point being, since you loved this movie so much, you should definitely watch more Tony Scott movies as you might really enjoy them also.

Cool little bit of trivia for you: those are Sonny Chiba movies that they're watching near the beginning of the film. Tarantino is a huge fan of Sonny Chiba, and the man himself appeared in a supporting role years later in Tarantino's Kill Bill. He has, sadly, since passed. Rest in peace, Sonny.

❤❤❤❤❤ I love this movie! This is by far one of my top 3 movies ever. This movie is like a vignette of scenes made into one overall theme. James Gandolfini, Chris Penn(brother of Sean), Tom Sizemore and Dennis Hopper all had memorable performances. Especially Dennis Hopper 😢 Oh, it was Val Kilmer that played one of the Batmans 😄 I am so glad that you loved that movie! ❤❤❤

Not many people I know get the real reason Clarance’s dad told the Sicilian story. He knew if he didn’t die quickly he’d tell under torture where Clarance went to. It’s a very subtle thing, and now you’re my favorite reactor for understanding.

Super great reaction as always. You’re the first reactor that I’ve seen that recognized Gary Oldman. I’ve always liked this movie because of the the characters portrayed by Gary Oldman and Brad Pitt. Plus the Hopper/Walken scene. And Alabama’s toughness.

Dawn, you are one of the best. So many people who react to the scene with Walken and Hopper don't get what's happening, but you caught on fast. Yeah. He's trying to get him to kill him quickly. It's a hilarious yet horribly bleak scene. And the actors elevated it via improvisation to tragicomic genius.

The score was adapted from a piece of music by Carl Orff called Gassenhaur. That and the voiceover were tributes to the Terrence Malick film Badland. Glad you appreciated the amazing scene with Christopher Walken and Dennis Hopper, 2 screen legends, although you may not have recognised their names. So many cameo's in this movie, actors who would go on to become stars, not least James Gandolfini as the psycho enforcer.
