Welcome back, Sweet Baby Angels!In today’s episode of Wilko & Courts, we dive head-first into the unexpected Hollywood drama nobody saw coming: Quentin Tarantino publicly calling Paul Dano “the weakest actor in SAG.” Yes… he really said that.We break down Tarantino’s comments, discuss There Will Be Blood, unpack why so many actors — from Matt Reeves to Toni Collette — rushed to defend Paul Dano, and debate whether Tarantino crossed a line by punching down instead of up.Of course, in classic Wilko & Courts fashion… we somehow end up talking about Britney Spears, Crossroads, Jennifer Lopez’s acting career, Daniel Day-Lewis, Stranger Things, and workplace ass-tapping in the 1950s.
