Legendary film director Quentin Tarantino has lost his eye for talent, if a new scoop from Britain’s Daily Star is to be believed.

The Pulp Fiction lensman — who has worked with acting vets like Samuel L. Jackson, Brad Pitt, and John Travolta — is a big fan of actress Lindsay Lohan. Tarantino was reportedly recently overheard gushing over the 23-year-old’s impressive work in films like Herbie Reloaded and Freaky Friday.

And how could we forget the made-for-TV gem that was Life Size.

“I’ve always loved Lindsay. She is a terrific, terrific actor. I think the work she did in Freaky Friday was just top notch acting,” Tarantino allegedly said.

We think he’s serious.
