Mr. Tarantino announced his plans earlier this month. A release promoting the auction says the previously unreleased scenes and other artifacts will get a “glimpse into the mind and creative process of Quentin Tarantino.” Miramax alleges that Mr. Tarantino’s reserved rights were limited to the film’s soundtrack, music publishing, live performance, print publication, comic books and theatrical and television sequel and spinoff rights.
