Director Quentin Tarantino has criticized actress Rosanna Arquette for criticizing his decision to include a racial slur in "Pulp Fiction". Arquetta, who played the wife of drug dealer Lance in the Oscar-winning cult classic, called the film great and iconic but condemned the use of a racial epithet in a Sunday Times interview. Tarantino responded by accusing Arquett of only criticizing him for the press coverage. He also criticized her for not showing "esprit de corps" among artistic colleagues.
