Jennifer Lopez's Surprising Revelations About 'True Romance'

During the June 10 interview, Goldstein put her on the spot by asking Lopez to name a film she found (expletive), even if it wasn't intentionally written that way. Caught off guard, the singer responded by asking Goldstein if he remembered Tony Scott’s 1993 cult classic, True Romance.

The Tony Scott film, written by Quentin Tarantino, features Christian Slater, Val Kilmer, Patricia Arquette, Dennis Hopper, Christopher Walken, Brad Pitt, and Gary Oldman. It tells the story of a pop culture geek who falls for a woman working as a call girl. The 1993 movie blends romance with violence.

“There are all these very (expletive) characters in the movie.”

Jennifer Lopez then spoke highly of the actors. “But all of them were so incredibly (expletive) good in this movie,” she said. “Their performances were so top-notch and so believable and so dynamic.”

Well, this isn't the only notable revelation from the actress that elicited strong reactions.

Lopez named Chloe Zhao's 2021 drama Nomadland, which won several Academy Awards, the “worst type of film,” as it doesn't align with her personal tastes. She confessed that despite its critical acclaim, she is simply not part of the film's target audience.

"It's hard to say ‘worst’ because it's a beautiful film," she said, but the slow-burning, melancholy masterpiece just isn't for her.

Jennifer Lopez also named The Notebook, starring Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams, as the film that makes her cry the most.

“Everybody knows why. I don't need to explain it,” she quipped.
