Director Quentin Tarantino was presented with the American Riviera Award, which recognizes an artist who has had a strong influence on American Cinema, by Moet & Chandon at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
Quentin celebrated the honor backstage in the Moet Lounge with a mini bottle of Moet, sans the flute.
The super-duper talented and eccentric director told fellow guests that the flute atop the mini champagne reminded him of a shot glass, so he pulled it out and drank directly from the bottle. Sounds more like Quentin Unchained than Django Unchained.
To celebrate the director’s big award Moet presented him with a crystallized jeroboam of Moet Imperial, which he said was going straight to his bar at home.
