WTF: Quentin Tarantino Says Polanski’s 13-Year-Old Rape Victim ‘Wanted To Have It’
Quentin Tarantino is not having the best week after his pal and collaborator Uma Thurman basically accused him of trying to kill her on the set of Kill Bill by making her do a car stunt, which led to a car accident.
Tarantino called the Uma crash “one of the biggest regrets of my life.” It was met with horror in Hollywood.
Now, a 2003 interview on Howard Stern is resurfacing where he claims that Roman Polanski’s 13-year-old rape victim “wanted to have it.”
“He didn’t rape a 13-year-old … he had sex with a minor. That’s not rape,” he said. Robin Quivers reminded him that Polanski’s victim was plied with drugs and alcohol, Tarantino said, “No, that was not the case at all. She wanted to have it [sex] and dated the guy … Look, she was down with this.”
