If ever there was a screenwriter that was fun to read, but really shouldn't be emulated, that screenwriter would be Quentin Tarantino. Of course, that hasn't stopped several screenwriters from trying, but it's a fool's errand (for that matter, it's a fool's errand to emulate any screenwriter). On the heels of several awards nominations, The Weinstein Company is revving up its tried-and-true awards machine and has recently churned out the screenplay of Django Unchained as an early holiday gift for your consideration.

Here's the trailer for Django Unchained, opening wide Dec. 25 in the U.S.

Tarantino and the Weinsteins are certainly no strangers to controversy. In fact, I'm pretty sure they welcome it, and I imagine Django Unchained will stir up its fair share while simultaneously raising the public's awareness of the film and ultimately driving its box office. If you want to hear directly from Quentin Tarantino about this film and his current thoughts on the film industry as a whole, check out The Hollywood Reporter's Director Roundtable video.
