Even his pregnant wife, Daniella Pick, whom he noted was watching the Globes from Tel Aviv, Israel, scored a mention. 5 telecast, the director gave shoutouts to "fantastic" cast members Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Margot Robbie, noting that the actress, who portrayed Sharon Tate, brought "more goodness" than anyone had on any of his other movies. Accepting the award for Best Screenplay for his film Once Upon A Time In Hollywood during NBC's Jan. “I did not realize it was going to get anywhere near where it is right now.Keeping in line with his uncanny ability to make audiences cringe, Quentin Tarantino's 2020 Golden Globes speech was a master class in mansplaining and general Tarantino-ness. “I’m definitely not going to stop this until it reaches $1 million, because I genuinely believe at this point that it’s completely possible,” he said. ![]() Leftist scum.”) But this fundraiser is by far his most successful effort-and now he’s hoping it’ll hit $1 million. Marcus had used his page to donate money to groups like Planned Parenthood and No Kid Hungry, as part of what he calls an effort to “troll for good.” (His Instagram bio includes a description from a former follower: “You’re like if John Oliver made a meme page. “During a pandemic that is raging out of control in our state because no one believes in science, this was the legislation they decided to pursue,” the writer messaged Marcus, adding, “As a survivor of sexual assault, waking up the past few days to see your fundraiser for Planned Parenthood has literally made my week.” On Friday, the organization secured a court order that will keep it from going into effect.
