Cannes Premiere

On May 22nd, 2019, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood premiered at the Cannes Film Fest. Following the premiered, director Quentin Tarantino and stars Margot Robbie, Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio participated in a press junket about the film, answering questions from journalists. During the junket, a female New York Times reporter asked Tarantino why he gave an actress of Robbie's caliber so few lines in the film. Tarantino responded, "I just reject your hypothesis."

Robbie went into greater detail about her experience with the character. She said, "I don’t think it was intended to delve deeper. I think the tragedy, ultimately, was the loss of innocence. To show those wonderful sides of her could ultimately be done without speaking. … I got a lot of time to explore the character even without speaking. Rarely do I get to spend so much time on my own as a character. That was actually an interesting thing for me to do as an actor."[6]

A tweet by the trade magazine Variety described his response as "snapped." They wrote, "Quentin Tarantino snapped at a female reporter from The New York Times who asked why Margot Robbie wasn’t given more to say or do in his latest film." Within 24 hours, the tweet received more than 915 retweets, 5,300 likes and 2.2 million views (shown below).


Many weighed in on the response. Film writer Kyle Buchanan tweeted,[7] "Tarantino is asked why a big star like Margot Robbie has so few lines in the movie: 'I just reject your hypotheses,' he replies curtly. To be fair… I don’t know if she has a single actual line in the first hour of the film?" Within 24 hours, the tweet received more than 115 retweets and 1,200 likes (shown below, left).

Film writer John Squires disagreed with Variety's characterization of the director. He wrote,[8] "'Snapped'? He declined to answer a question he didn't agree with. Not saying Tarantino is entirely unproblematic but to come at him with the suggestion of intentionally giving limited screen time to women is quite unfair when you consider his filmography. Of course he scoffed." The tweet received more than 1,800 retweets and 8,700 likes in 24 hours (shown below, center).

Additionally, film writer, Dilara Elbir tweeted,[9] "It really isn't hard for Tarantino to say 'I understand your question and your concern and I'm glad you brought it up because it's important. Here is why I made that decision:' and say the things Margot said." Within 24 hours, the tweet received more than 130 retweets and 1,800 likes (shown below, right).

That day, Twitter[10] published a Moments page on the controversy.
