How do actresses feel when Quentin Tarantino films their feet?
For the past few years, Margaret Qualley has taken Hollywood by storm, and it’s all thanks to her performance in Quentin Tarantino's ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood'. That movie allowed her to show her talent to a wider audience which in turn gave her more and more roles that she keeps on nailing.
Though working with Quentin Tarantino was a great opportunity for her, she felt apprehensive to show her feet on screen, which she was expected to do in a car scene in the film.
In an interview with IndieWire, she explained why she didn't want to show them and how Quentin and Brad Pitt dealt with her fear:
I genuinely was like, ‘Quentin, this is a bad idea. I don’t have good feet.’ I was in pointe shoes for far too long to have toes that can be shown to the world. We had a big debate about it, me, Quentin, and Brad, with them trying to be like, ‘You’re fine,’ and me being like, ‘No, guys, really, look, these are not good. I know that I undermine myself pretty regularly, but I’m genuinely telling you these are not good feet, look at these. I know I’m self-deprecating, but I’m not being in this particular instance.'
I used to actually be pretty mortified with my feet. Maybe I can finally just give that up now.
