During a recent appearance on THE TONIGHT SHOW,  Tarantino, who was visibly drunk (Leno even brought it up and it's been the subject of much chit chat since) from the open bar in the green room, came on the show with a black wolf's head cane.

Concerned that Tarantino may have an injury, Leno asked him about the cane. Quentin's response? "No, it's my Barnabas Collins cane! Haven't you ever seen DARK SHADOWS!!" To which a few other fans in the audience hooted.

By the way, he was born prior to DS and he was named from a Burt Reynolds TV show character named Quint...

I wish I watched The Tonight Show.  That would have been very interesting. :)

Doesn't it, though.  [winkg]  I can just picture a scene with Willie and Jason complaining about Mrs. Johnson's cooking and finding it inferior to that at McDonalds.  [lol2]

Would it be terribly gauche of me to admit I've actually eaten a Quarter Pounder (with no cheese) in Paris? [lghy]

In fact, here's a picture of him that I found on NBC's site! Oh dear, I hope you can see it.

The caption reads something like "Quentin Tarantino shows off his sporty cane that was once used by the character Barnabas Collins in TV's 'Dark Shadows'."

It sure does sound like it, doesn't it? Since I didn't see the show, I don't know if he claimed that. But I suspect they just don't know what they're talking about.

But it must be true if you read it on the Internet. ;)

It looks great! Thanks so much for posting this for those of us who'd missed the show.  [smlyg]

(And BTW, I browsed around the Tonight Show site and couldn't find this photo, so I'm assuming that it isn't still a part of the site. The reason I mention this is because we wouldn't want to be posting a photo here that's currently being offered on another site. We prefer that people post a link to the original site.  [winkg])

Sure sounds that way to me too, but, somehow it looks "off", ya know?

Oops. It is still there although it's kind of hard to find - it's in a pop up.

Sorry for my gaffe. Would you like me to replace the pic with the URL?

Hmmm...  It looks just a little different from the cane on the show.  It might be a little taller if it isn't the exact one from the show. ???
