Quote:As far as I remember, Tarantino just put his name on that film (and a few others) and nothing else, only to get them released in the US. The movie wasn't going to be released unless it was released with his name attached. Looking at the DVD package, all it says is "Quinten Tarantino presents". I could be completely wrong though.
You are correct. Miramax refused to release Hero in its entirety (the European release was an edited 95 minute version, rather than the full 120 minutes, and that is the version they were planning on releasing in the States) unless Tarantino stuck his name on it.

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
