5. He Auditioned Drunk for Quentin Tarantino
The infamous director was interested in Roth for Reservoir Dogs from the beginning, and though he wanted Roth to take the part of Pink or Blonde, Roth was far more interested in the undercover cop, Orange. Roth refused to read for the part, but relented after a long night of drinking and talking. This drunken interview ended up making Roth far more famous in the US.
