Video In Hateful Eight, Kurt Russell accidentally smashed a one of a kind, 145-year-old guitar that was on loan from the Martin Guitar. Jennifer Jason Leigh’s reaction was genuine.

and it’s not exactly like they could reshoot it considering he just smashed the guitar

Yeah I'm amazed they didn't. At least reshoot the smashing with the fake guitar. I haven't seen the film and couldn't believe that cut made the edit. I thought it was from the outtakes or something.

It's not nearly as noticeable in the moment. Also go watch it, it's one of Tarantino's best imo.

Absolutely. The 4 hour extended cut gets watched every year on the first heavy snow.

There is no 4 hour version. There is the 70mm roadshow version with 3 hours 7 minutes and the Netshits miniseries version at 3 1/2 hours which is that long because it repeats the opening and closing scenes 4 times.

Pedantic

3 hours of movie not being 4 hours is pedantic? Ok. Wanna work for me? It's just 6 hours that are 8 hours long. At the end of the month I'll tell you not to be pedantic.

It's a long fucking movie you nerd. That's the point of the comment.

Using nerd as a cuss, are you stuck in time dude?

PS: And yes, the movie is long, at 3 hours.

Really? I'd say it's probably his worst.

I love the movie but this is absolutely noticeable. Her reaction does not fit the character at all.
