Milius described Flight of the Intruder as one of the worst experiences of his directing career. Paramount, the studio that made Top Gun, wanted Milius to make a movie that would repeat its success. This lead to a power struggle between the director and the studio. In a reversal of the usual dynamic, Milius claims he wanted to spend less money than the studio:

was a big year for Arquette. She appeared in some pretty high profile projects. But she was overshadowed by Madonna in Desperately Seeking Susan and her role in Silverado was small. She needed to capitalize on her buzz if she wanted to take her career to the next level. In 1986, she tried to do just that. Her first attempt was in Hal Ashby’s crime drama, 8 Million Ways to Die. Arquette auditioned to play Thurman’s role. When that didn’t work out, she was offered the smaller part of the dealer’s wife. Pam Grier was considered to play that part. But Tarantino didn’t think audiences would find it believable for Stoltz to yell at her. I love to see the humor in things, so for me, it was really fun and effortless. I do have a dark sense of humor anyway, so that was fun to do that. He’s a master director and writer, but what he was able to do and how he’s become that is because he puts together his cast and he rehearses like it’s a play. We had all of this rehearsal time, so you could work things out and discover and play. Pulp Fiction premiered at Cannes where it won the top prize, The Palme d’Or. Critics praised the movie for its inventive story-telling and it became a hit at the box office. Come awards season, Pulp Fiction was pitted against Forrest Gump. Gump came away with most of the wins. Pulp Fiction only took home one Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. But the movie has had a lasting impact. The rest of the decade was filled with Tarantino wannabes. Even today, its influence can be felt.

Arquette also appeared on the cover of Playboy magazine and in a nude pictorial. The actress claims that was not her intention when she posed for the photos. She was doing a photo shoot for Traveller magazine when photographer Burt Stern convinced her to go topless. According to Arquette: In 2017 Arquette alleged (along with almost a hundred other women from the entertainment industry), that the then film producer Harvey Weinstein sexually harassed her, threatened her because of her refusal to enter his hotel room, and subsequently saw to it that she was paid less for Pulp Fiction, then no longer cast her in A-list lead roles because of her rejection of his quid pro quo sexual harassment proposition; Weinstein was convicted of sex offences in 2020. When news broke about Weinstein's sexual offending in October 2017, Arquette was one of the first actresses to speak openly about his misconduct, with Ronan Farrow for The New Yorker and The New York Times 's Jodi Kantor. [16] In the documentary Untouchable (2019) about Weinstein focusing on those who accused him of sexual abuse, Arquette, Paz de la Huerta, and Erika Rosenbaum were among those interviewed. The minor movie roles continued in 1981 as Arquette appeared in Blake Edwards show biz comedy, S.O.B.

It is testimony to the superior acting skills of Joe Pesci and Danny Glover that Gone Fishin’ registers more than a blip on the summer movie radar screen. They can’t rescue Gone Fishin’from mediocrity (Olivier and Gielgud couldn’t have pulled that off), but they make it good fun, thanks to moronic moments that provide a decent share of big laughs. Suddenly I’m, like, there on the cover… It was in the stands. I had no idea. The relationship broke up right after that, not because of that.Rosanna Arquette to receive Indie Star Award - American Film Festival". Archived from the original on October 18, 2017 .

He is invited to a private gambling club where he meets a prostitute played by Alexandra Paul. She asks him for help but ends up being kidnapped while Bridges is watching. Andy Garcia plays the baddie and Arquette plays the prostitute who helps Bridges take him down. I’m proud of CBS for saying yes to this movie. This is an important story to tell. I took this on because a lot of children are dying in the United States this way, and it’s wrong. It’s OK for people to have faith and believe in God. We’re not putting down the church or Christianity. God gave people the intelligence to create medicine to heal. It’s really tragic when a child has to die because of negligence. What a terrible mistake! These people blew it. It should never happen again. a candid, table-turning conversation with the fiery italian journalist about writing, her politics, her temperament and her world-famous interviews
Baby It’s You was John Sayles’ first movie distributed by a major Hollywood studio. Although Paramount released the movie, they didn’t produce it. All of the major studios passed on the script because they didn’t like the ending. Paramount fought with Sayles to make the ending more upbeat. When he refused, they dumped the movie in theaters with very little promotion. Shannon's appearance in Playboy was arranged through a 1980s Canadian TV show, " Thrill of a Lifetime".

Arquette has appeared in both television and feature films since 1977. One of her first noticeable roles was in S.O.B. (1981), directed by Blake Edwards. She earned an Emmy Award nomination for the TV film The Executioner's Song (1982). However, she was unhappy with the film's nude scene, remarking in an interview that the idea of the general public seeing her naked made her feel uncomfortable and exploited, and that most of the offers she had received since demanded that she similarly expose herself. [11] Her first starring role was in John Sayles's film, Baby It's You (1983), highly regarded by Rotten Tomatoes reviewers [12] but not widely distributed. [13] She co-starred in Desperately Seeking Susan (1985) alongside pop superstar Madonna, for which Arquette won a BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role despite appearing in the leading role. In an interview at the time, Arquette said "The two questions I hate the most are 'What was it like working with Madonna?' and 'Are you the Rosanna in the song " Rosanna"?'" Following the commercial and critical success of Lawrence Kasdan's Silverado (also 1985), the limited success of the Martin Scorsese film After Hours (also 1985) and the commercial flop 8 Million Ways to Die (1986), also a critical failure, she quit Hollywood to work in Europe, acting in Luc Besson's The Big Blue (1988). Director Scorsese then offered her a part in his segment of New York Stories (1989). The Big Blue is a heavily fictionalized account of the lives of two free divers; Jacques Mayol (played by Jean-Marc Barr) and Enzo Maiorca (played by Jean Reno). In real life, both men were diving champions at about the same time. In the movie, they are childhood friends who competed against each other and pushed each other past their limits. Arquette played Mayol’s girlfriend. when she was only 15, she had the look that drove boxer jake la motta into fits of jealously, now, at 51, vikki la motta is proving that very little has changed
