As of 2025-11-06T04:14:51+00:00, the acclaimed filmmaker Quentin Tarantino continues to face scrutiny over his apparent obsession with women's feet. The director, known for his iconic films, has been accused of featuring numerous shots of bare feet in his projects, including those of actresses like Margot Robbie, Margaret Qualley, and Dakota Fanning.
This long-standing rumor resurfaced last year when actor Brad Pitt jokingly called out Tarantino's foot fetish while accepting his SAG Award for best supporting actor. Pitt quipped that Tarantino had "separated more women from their shoes than the TSA."
However, Tarantino remains unfazed by the allegations. In a 2021 interview with GQ, he defended his decision to focus on women's feet, stating that "there's a lot of feet in a lot of good directors' movies" and that it's simply "good direction." The filmmaker also pointed to other acclaimed directors, such as Luis Buñuel and Alfred Hitchcock, who have been accused of similar foot-related obsessions.
Despite the ongoing controversy, Tarantino's unique directorial style, which often includes prominent shots of women's feet, continues to be a topic of discussion in the entertainment industry.
