The Hateful Eight is a 2015 American Western-mystery film written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. It stars Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Walton Goggins, Demián Bichir, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, and Bruce Dern as eight strangers who seek refuge from a blizzard in a stagecoach stopover some time after the American Civil War. The score, composed by Ennio Morricone, was his first complete Western score in 40 years.
Tarantino announced the film in November 2013. After the script leaked in January 2014, he cancelled the movie, but announced that he had changed his mind after directing a live reading of the script at the United Artists Theater in Los Angeles. Filming began on December 8, 2014 near Telluride, Colorado. Distributed by Weinstein Company, The Hateful Eight was released on December 25, 2015 in a roadshow release in 70 mm film format, to generally positive reviews from critics. It had a wide digital release on December 30, 2015.
Plot
"Chapter One: Last Stage to Red Rock"
Some time after the Civil War, bounty hunter Major Marquis Warren, transporting the corpses of three outlaws to the town of Red Rock, hitches a ride on a stagecoach driven by a man named O.B. Inside is bounty hunter John "The Hangman" Ruth, who is escorting fugitive Daisy Domergue to Red Rock handcuffed to him. Ruth keeps his bounties alive so he can watch them hang.
Warren shows Ruth a letter he claims is from Abraham Lincoln. When Domergue spits on it, Warren punches her, and she and Ruth fall out of the stagecoach.
"Chapter Two: Son of a Gun"
The stagecoach is approached by former Lost-Causer militiaman Chris Mannix, who claims he is travelling to Red Rock as the town's new sheriff. He persuades Ruth and Warren to let him join them, as he will be the one paying their bounties. Ruth gives Warren back his weapons and the two agree to protect each other's bounties. Mannix and Warren almost come to blows over their questionable war records.
"Chapter Three: Minnie's Haberdashery"
The group arrives at Minnie's Haberdashery, a stagecoach lodge, as a powerful blizzard approaches. Bob, a Mexican, says the owner, Minnie, is visiting her mother and left him to look after the lodge. The other lodgers are Oswaldo Mobray, who introduces himself as the Red Rock hangman; Joe Gage, a quiet cowboy going to stay with his mother; and Sanford Smithers, a former Confederate general. Ruth, suspicious of the lodgers, disarms all but Warren.
As the group eats, Mannix surmises that Warren's Lincoln letter is a forgery. Warren, in revenge for Smithers having executed black Union soldiers at the Battle of Baton Rouge, places a gun next to Smithers and taunts him by recounting how he marched Smithers' son naked through the snow for hours, coerced him into fellating him, and killed him. Smithers reaches for the gun and Warren shoots him dead, satisfied that the killing was self-defense.
"Chapter Four: Domergue's Got a Secret"
While everyone is distracted by Smithers' death, someone seen only by Domergue poisons the brewing coffee. Ruth and O.B. drink the coffee, then vomit blood and collapse. The dying Ruth attacks Domergue, but she shoots him dead with his own gun. Warren, after disarming Domergue, holds the lodgers at gunpoint and leaves Domergue cuffed to Ruth's corpse. He is joined by Mannix, whom Warren trusts because he nearly drank the poisoned coffee.
Warren deduces that Bob is an imposter, as Minnie hates Mexicans and would not leave one in charge of the lodge, and executes him. When he threatens to execute Domergue too, Gage admits he poisoned the coffee. Warren is shot in the groin by a man hiding beneath the floorboards. Mobray draws a concealed gun and shoots Mannix, who returns fire, wounding Mobray and forcing Gage against the wall.
"Chapter Five: The Four Passengers"
Earlier that day, Bob, Mobray, Gage, and a fourth man, Jody, arrive at Minnie's Haberdashery and massacre everyone but Smithers. Jody tells Smithers they plan to ambush Ruth to rescue Domergue, Jody's sister; they will spare Smithers if he keeps quiet, believing an extra lodger will make the scene more believable. The bandits dispose of the bodies, hide the evidence, and conceal guns around the lodge. As Ruth's stagecoach arrives, Jody hides beneath the floorboards.
"Final Chapter: Black Man, White Hell"
Mannix and Warren, both seriously wounded, hold Domergue, Gage, and the dying Mobray at gunpoint. They flush Jody out by threatening to kill Daisy and Warren shoots him dead. Domergue claims that more of her brother's men are waiting in Red Rock to kill Mannix and sack the town; if Mannix kills Warren and allows her to escape, she says, the gang will spare him.
As Domergue and Mobray taunt Warren, he shoots Domergue in the foot, then Mobray in the leg; Mobray dies from his wounds. Gage draws a revolver hidden under a table but is shot dead by Mannix and Warren. Warren tries to shoot Domergue but is out of bullets. Mannix decides Domergue's offer is a bluff, but faints from his wounds. Domergue hacks off Ruth's handcuffed arm and frees herself. As she reaches for Mannix's gun, he regains consciousness and shoots her, wounding her again. Warren persuades him to hang her from the rafters in honor of Ruth. Afterwards, as the two lie dying, Mannix reads aloud Warren's forged Lincoln letter and crumples it up.

Production
In November 2013, writer-director Quentin Tarantino said he was working on a new film, another Western. He stated that it would not be a sequel to Django Unchained.[5] On January 12, 2014, the film's title was announced as The Hateful Eight.[citation needed] The film was inspired by 1960s Western TV shows including Bonanza, The Virginian and The High Chaparral. Tarantino said:
Twice per season, those shows would have an episode where a bunch of outlaws would take the lead characters hostage. They would come to the Ponderosa and hold everybody hostage, or go to Judge Garth's place — Lee J. Cobb played him — in The Virginian and take hostages. There would be a guest star like David Carradine, Darren McGavin, Claude Akins, Robert Culp, Charles Bronson, or James Coburn. I don't like that storyline in a modern context, but I love it in a Western, where you would pass halfway through the show to find out if they were good or bad guys, and they all had a past that was revealed. I thought, 'What if I did a movie starring nothing but those characters? No heroes, no Michael Landons. Just a bunch of nefarious guys in a room, all telling backstories that may or may not be true. Trap those guys together in a room with a blizzard outside, give them guns, and see what happens.[6]
Production would most likely have begun in the summer of 2014, but after the script leaked online in January 2014, Tarantino considered publishing it as a novel instead.[7] He said he had given the script to a few trusted colleagues, including Bruce Dern, Tim Roth, and Michael Madsen.[8][9] This version of the script featured a different ending in which Warren and Mannix attempt to kill Gage by forcing him to drink the poisoned coffee, this causes Oswaldo and Bob (a Frenchman in the early draft) to expose themselves and attempt to kill Warren and Mannix, in the resulting firefight every character is killed. [10]
According to the script, the story is set in Wyoming, in the 1870s ("six or eight or twelve years after the Civil War"), and while a town called "Red Rock" is mentioned numerous times, the actual state where Red Rock is supposed to exist is never stated or shown in the script or in the final film.[11][12]
On April 19, 2014, Tarantino directed a live reading of the leaked script at the United Artists Theater in the Ace Hotel Los Angeles. The event was organized by the Film Independent at LACMA, as part of the Live Read series, and introduced by Elvis Mitchell.[13] Tarantino explained that they would read the first draft of the script, and he added that he was writing two new drafts with a different ending. The actors who joined Tarantino included Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell, Amber Tamblyn, James Parks, Walton Goggins, Zoë Bell, James Remar, Dana Gourrier, Dern, Roth and Madsen.[14]
Casting
On September 23, 2014, it was revealed that Viggo Mortensen was asking Tarantino for a role in the film.[15] On October 9, 2014, Jennifer Jason Leigh was added to the cast to play Daisy Domergue.[16] On November 5, 2014, it was announced that Channing Tatum was circling for a major role in the film.[17] Later the same day, The Weinstein Company confirmed the cast in a press release, which would include Samuel L. Jackson, Leigh, Kurt Russell, Tim Roth, Demián Bichir, Walton Goggins, Michael Madsen, and Bruce Dern. Tatum's casting was also confirmed.[18] Later on January 23, 2015, TWC announced an ensemble cast of supporting members, including James Parks, Dana Gourrier, Zoë Bell, Gene Jones, Keith Jefferson, Lee Horsley, Craig Stark, and Belinda Owino.[19]
In the earlier public reading of the first script, the role of Daisy Domergue had been read by Amber Tamblyn, and the role of Bob, a Frenchman rather than a Mexican, was read by Denis Ménochet;[14] at the reading, the role of Jody was read by James Remar. Regarding the cast Tarantino has said, "This is a movie where [bigger movie stars] wouldn’t work. It needs to be an ensemble where nobody is more important than anybody else."[20]
Filming
Shooting was set to begin in early 2015 after being pushed back from November 2014.[21] In early September, the filming was set to begin in January 2015.[22] On September 26, 2014, the state of Colorado had signed to fund the film's production with $5 million, and the complete film would be shot in Southwest Colorado.[23] A 900-acre, high-mesa ranch had been issued to the production for the filming. There was a meeting on October 16, and the county's planning commission used a permit for the construction of a temporary set.[23] Principal photography began on December 8, 2014, in Colorado on the Schmid Ranch near Telluride.[24][25][26][27] The film's special effects were directed by Greg Nicotero, known for his work on the AMC series The Walking Dead.[28]
Cinematography
Cinematographer Robert Richardson, who also worked with Tarantino in Kill Bill, Inglourious Basterds, and Django Unchained, filmed The Hateful Eight on 65 mm film, using Ultra Panavision 70. It is the widest release in 70 mm film since Ron Howard's Far and Away in 1992.[29] The film uses Panavision anamorphic lenses with an aspect ratio of 2.76:1, a very widescreen image that was used on some films in the 1950s and 1960s.[30] The filmmakers also avoided any use of a digital intermediate; the film was color-timed photochemically by FotoKem, and the dailies were screened in 70mm.[31]
Music
Tarantino announced in 2015's Comic-Con that Ennio Morricone would compose the score for The Hateful Eight; it is the first western scored by Morricone in 34 years, since Buddy Goes West, and the first Tarantino film to use an original score.[32][33] Tarantino had previously used Morricone's music in Kill Bill, Death Proof, Inglourious Basterds, and Django Unchained, and Morricone also wrote an original song, "Ancora Qui", for the latter.[34] Morricone had previously made statements that he would "never work" with Tarantino after Django Unchained, but ultimately changed his mind and agreed to score The Hateful Eight.[35]
The soundtrack was announced on November 19, 2015 for a December 18 release from Decca Records. Ennio Morricone composed 50 minutes of original music for The Hateful Eight. In addition to Morricone's original score, the soundtrack includes dialogue excerpts from the film, "Apple Blossom" by The White Stripes from their De Stijl album, "Now You're All Alone" by David Hess from The Last House on the Left and "There Won't Be Many Coming Home" by Roy Orbison from The Fastest Guitar Alive.[36]
Tarantino confirmed that the film would use three unused tracks from Morricone's original soundtrack for the 1982 John Carpenter film The Thing - "Eternity", "Bestiality" and "Despair" - as Morricone was pressed for time whilst creating the score.[37] The final film also uses Morricone's "Regan's Theme" from the 1977 John Boorman film Exorcist II: The Heretic.
Morricone's score won several awards including a special award from New York Film Critics Circle. The score has been nominated for a Golden Globe.[38]
Release
On September 3, 2014, The Weinstein Company acquired the worldwide distribution rights to the film for a fall 2015 release.[22] TWC would sell the film worldwide, but Tarantino asked to personally approve the global distributors for the film.[39] In preparation for its release, Tarantino arranged for approximately 100[40] theaters worldwide to be retrofitted with anamorphic equipped 70 mm film projectors, in order to display the film as he intended.[30][41] The film was released on December 25, 2015 as a roadshow presentation in 70 mm film format theaters.[42] The film was initially scheduled to be released in digital theaters on January 8, 2016. On December 14, The Hollywood Reporter announced that the film's wide release would be on December 31, 2015, while still screening the 70mm version.[43] Both versions of the film are Tarantino's longest works to date. The release date was ultimately moved up to December 30, 2015, to meet the heavy demand.[44] On July 11, 2015, Tarantino and the cast of the film appeared at Comic-Con to promote the film.[32]
Post-production
Tarantino edited two versions of the film, one for the roadshow version and the other for general release. The roadshow version runs for three hours and two minutes, and includes an overture and intermission, while the general release is six minutes shorter and contains alternate takes of some scenes. Tarantino stated that the general release cut was created as he felt that some of the footage he shot for 70mm would not play well on smaller screens.[45] Classifications from the British Board of Film Classification confirm that the time difference between the Roadshow (187 minutes) and the DCP (167 minutes) releases is twenty minutes.[1][2]
Controversy and boycott
In October 2015, Tarantino attended a Black Lives Matter rally and publicly commented on police brutality in the United States, saying, "When I see murders, I do not stand by... I have to call a murder a murder, and I have to call the murderers the murderers." Tarantino's comments received national media attention and several police groups in the United States pledged to boycott The Hateful Eight and his other films.[46] Tarantino said he is not a "cop hater" and would not be intimidated by the calls for a boycott.[47][48]
Reception
Box office
The film opened in limited release on December 25, 2015 and over the weekend grossed $4.6 million from 100 theaters ($46,107 per screen), finishing 10th at the box office.[49] It had its wide release on December 30, grossing $3.5 million on its opening day.[50] The film went on to gross $16.2 million in its opening weekend, finishing third at the box office behind Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($88.3 million) and Daddy's Home ($29 million).[51]
Critical response
The Hateful Eight has received generally positive reviews from critics. On the film-critic aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 75%, based on 153 reviews, with an average rating of 7.4/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "The Hateful Eight offers another well-aimed round from Quentin Tarantino's signature blend of action, humor, and over-the-top violence – all while demonstrating an even stronger grip on his filmmaking craft."[52] On Metacritic, the film holds a weighted average of 69 out of 100, based on 45 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[53] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B" on an A+ to F scale.[50]
The A.V. Club's Ignatiy Vishnevetsky praised the film, remarking that "with a script that could easily be a stage play, The Hateful Eight is about as close as this pastiche artist is likely to get to the classical tradition....[It] is an exercise in the art of the protracted scene, which has been part of his personal signature since Reservoir Dogs."[54] In contrast, Chris Plante of the BBC calls it "A sluggish, unimaginative dud, brimming with venom but not much cleverness."[55]
