Quentin Tarantino was just 12 years old when he vowed to never give his mother a dime if he succeeds.

A decision as hard as it was precocious but which, according to the filmmaker, is equal to the disdain that his father has always displayed for his cinematographic ambitions.

Little adapted to the school system, Quentin Tarantino was often reprimanded by his teachers.

They more often found him writing screenplays than taking lessons.

His mother had sided with the institution.

“She made fun of me on screenwriting.

And then, in the middle of her little tirade, she said to me, “Oh, and by the way, that little“ writing career ”- with the gesture of quotes - that you have.

It is finished ”, he lamented during a passage in the podcast

The Moment

.

"No Cadillac, no house"

“When she said that sarcastically, I was like, 'Alright ma'am, when I become a bestselling author, you will never get a dime from my success.

There will be no home for you.

There will be no vacation for you, no Elvis Cadillac for mom.

You won't get anything.

Because you said that, ”continued Quentin Tarantino.

However, the

Pulp Fiction

director

admits he once broke his promise and pulled out his checkbook to help his mother when she got into trouble with the IRS.

“But no house.

No Cadillac, no house, ”he insisted one last time.

Recently, Quentin Tarantino announced that he was giving up his career as a director to focus on another dream, that of becoming a writer.

Her first novel is due out in France on August 18, and it is an adaptation of her latest film,

Once Upon A Time ... in Hollywood
