Diari ARA this week.He continued, “And the truth is that, in real life, it’s a pain to shoot sex scenes, everyone is very tense. And if it was already a bit problematic to do it before, now it is even more so.”However, the director did note that if there was ever an intimate scene that was “essential” to the story of the film, he would go for it, but it “hasn’t been necessary.”His 1997 film, “Jackie Brown,” is the only movie that features a racy scene between Bridget Fonda and Robert De Niro. The movie followed a flight attendant, who was played by Pam Grier, showing her journey as she navigates getting busted for smuggling money.

Quentin Tarantino suggested that sex scenes are unnecessary when working on his films. The 60-year-old "Pulp Fiction" director pointed out that he includes barely any nudity in his projects because he said it’s "problematic." "It’s true, sex is not part of my vision of cinema," Tarantino told Spain’s Diari ARA during an interview.

Fans of Quentin Tarantino’s cinematic output may have noticed that there’s one area where the acclaimed filmmaker rarely visits: the bedroom.

Quentin Tarantino is opening up about why he doesn’t include sex scenes in his movies.

Quentin Tarantino has said the poor box office performance of Death Proof impacted his confidence as a director.The 2007 action-thriller stars Kurt Russell as a stuntman who murders young women with modified cars. The film grossed only $31million (£24.9m) at the box office on a budget of $30million, which is considered a failure compared to Tarantino’s other works.Speaking to Spanish outlet Diari ARA to promote his latest book Cinema Speculation, the director explained how the film’s poor reception led to him receiving more project proposals from Hollywood.“I have been lucky enough to write stories that have connected with many people, and this has allowed me to practise my art without restrictions that most filmmakers have,” Tarantino said.“Now, a funny thing happened: for a while I was getting a lot of project proposals, until the studios ended up assuming that I do my stories and it wasn’t worth the effort.

Quentin Tarantino is known mainly to the public for his many acclaimed films and multiple Oscar statues; however, with his successes, there was a time when the filmmaker had some brief lows too. Back in 2007, Tarantino’s take on the drive-in slasher genre with “Death Proof” starring Kurt Russell (“The Hateful Eight“) as a stuntman/killer, was considered one of his worst films as audiences weren’t terribly thrilled with its opening weekend and essentially became a flop.

Quentin Tarantino has explained why he rarely includes sex scenes in his film – claiming they are “not part of” his cinema.The legendary director was speaking with Catalan Spanish newspaper Diari ARA when he explored the topic, and listed the reasons why the intimate scenes don’t align with his “vision”.“Sex is not part of my vision of cinema,” he said.“And the truth is that, in real life, it’s a pain to shoot sex scenes,” he added, referring to the logistical challenges when shooting those kinds of scenes. “Everyone is very tense.”Elsewhere in the interview, Tarantino also alluded to the ongoing number of stars coming forward, sharing instances in which they felt uncomfortable while shooting sex scenes.“If it was already a bit problematic to do it before, now it is even more so,” he added.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Quentin Tarantino has been making the international press rounds in support of his “Cinema Speculation” book tour, recently speaking to Spain’s Diari ARA about how one of his only box office bombs shook his confidence as a film director. That bomb would be “Death Proof,” Tarantino’s 2017 stuntman action-thriller starring Kurt Russell that was released domestically as one half of the movie “Grindhouse.” The other half was Eli Roth’s “Planet Terror.” The “Grindhouse” release earned $25 million, while “Death Proof” picked up only $30 million overseas in its standalone release. “I have been lucky enough to write stories that have connected with many people, and this has allowed me to practice my art without the restrictions that most filmmakers have,” Tarantino told the publication. “Now, a funny thing happened: for a while I was getting a lot of project proposals, until the studios ended up assuming that I do my stories and it wasn’t worth the effort. But after ‘Death Proof,’ which didn’t do well at the box office and was a bit of a shock to my confidence, I started getting proposals again.”
