Tarantino is deeeeep Hollywood:
Why did he so suddenly take on such a clear hostility to HIPPEES..?
I don’t get it.
It’s unmistakable; at at least 4 different times in the film he has people dumping on hippees, lighting them on fire, etc.
Don’t get me wrong, I love it.
But I don’t understand WHY he did this.
I wonder if it was a nod to the ending of “Easy Rider”?
There was an interview a while back where he said ...“I knew even as a little boy that this hippie youth culture thing was a new thing and shaking the fabric of society a little bit. … It kind of scared me, frankly.” [Woodstock] “seemed ominous. Everyone hanging out in the mud, kids running around naked. It seemed like debauchery.”
