[quote:Anonymous Coward 25470581:MV8yMDc4NzYxXzM0OTk3NTkyXzg1RDYxOERF] I can't find any of Fox's statements on that link. [/quote]
Original Message
As the lead Django, Foxx explained that Tarantino was concerned that the trappings of Foxx's life might have made it tough for him to get into the mindset of a slave. Foxx replied that he felt qualified for the role, having grown up in "racially charged" Texas.
"Being called a n*gger as a young kid by white people was something I had to deal with," he said. "Having that done to me I was able to grasp what was going on in the script. When a project becomes magic and special it means that at certain points in the script it parallels your story."
