Tarantino Documentary Footage Freed From Weinstein Company
21 Feb 2019.  

A new documentary about Quentin Tarantino is now in post-production after a lengthy legal battle between director Tara Wood and  The Weinstein Company. 

The feature-length documentary, 21 Years: Quentin Tarantino is a celebration of Tarantino’s works-to-date and his domination of the  global box office. While there’s no firm date when we can expect the film to be released, rumours are it could be by end of this summer.

In 2017, Wood, co-director of 2014’s acclaimed 21 Years: Richard Linklater, asked The Weinstein Co. to release the documentary following  the onslaught of sexual harassment allegations against company founder Harvey Weinstein. “TWC should respectfully release us from our  deal,” Wood said in a statement at the time, “To allow the project to be handled with the care and consideration it, Mr Tarantino, and all the  participants deserve.” The company refused, and Wood embarked on a prolonged legal battle.

Now, Wood is proud to announce that the film has returned to the creative team at Wood Entertainment, and is ready to find the right home  for distribution. “We are thrilled, and eager to conduct our final interviews and complete the documentary, free from Harvey Weinstein and his complicit cohorts,” said Wood last week. “We look forward to finding a new distribution partner, timed with the July 2019 release of Quentin’s next film, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.”

Quentin Tarantino’s career is unmatched in its wellspring of talent and the diversity of subjects in his eight films to date. In the trendsetting  Reservoir Dogs and the ground-breaking Pulp Fiction, Tarantino revolutionized the status quo. He reworked genre and celebrated  badass women in films like Jackie Brown, Kill Bill and the gasoline-charged Death Proof. He took on issues of race in America in  Django Unchained and boldly rewrote history in Inglorious Basterds, leaving us snowbound in the ultimate “who done it” murder  mystery, The Hateful 8. His films reap as much controversy as they do accolades. The documentary coincides with the end of an era – 
the collaboration of Tarantino with the now disgraced Harvey Weinstein. More Info.
