"That was really nice."
"I was also incredibly grateful that the world spoke up for me so I didn't have to."
"[Dano] is weak sauce, man. He is the weak sister. [Daniel Day Lewis] is eating him [alive]. Austin Butler would have been wonderful in that role. He's just such a weak, weak, uninteresting guy,"
"F*** that guy! He must've been high... it was just confusing. Who does that?"
Quentin Tarantino criticized Paul Dano's performance in There Will Be Blood, calling him "weak sauce," comparing him unfavorably to Daniel Day-Lewis and suggesting Austin Butler would have been a stronger choice. Paul Dano said, "That was really nice," and added that he was "incredibly grateful that the world spoke up for me so I didn't have to." Toni Collette interrupted a Sundance screening to defend Dano, asking, "Are we really going there?" and condemning the remark as confusing and unacceptable. Multiple celebrities pushed back against Tarantino's comments. Dano has received consistent acclaim for roles in Little Miss Sunshine, Meek's Cutoff and The Fabelmans.
