Tarantino faced a lot of criticism following Thurman's revelations about Harvey Weinstein in the New York Times piece which implied that the director had a role in covering up the incident.
But Thurman took to her Instagram to say that she did not blame Tarantino for the handling of a violent car crash she experienced on the set of "Kill Bill".
She blasted Weinstein, Lawrence Bender, and E Bennett Walsh for allegedly covering up the incident.
The video was first made public in a New York Times story where the actor said she had not been comfortable performing the driving stunt and got into a years-long fight with Tarantino after the crash as she was not allowed to view the footage.
The actor said Tarantino handed over the footage "with full knowledge it could cause him personal harm, and I am proud of him for doing the right thing and for his courage."
She said, "...for this I hold Lawrence Bender, E Bennett Walsh, and the notorious Harvey Weinstein solely responsible. they lied, destroyed evidence, and continue to lie about the permanent harm they caused and then chose to suppress. the cover up did have malicious intent, and shame on these three for all eternity."
A spokesperson for Weinstein denied Thurman's allegations in a statement to EW, saying Weinstein "did not give instructions to destroy the vehicle or orchestrate a cover-up and this is the first time he has learned that Ms Thurman had any issues regarding the handling of her accident."
Tarantino, in an interview with Deadline, has clarified his role in the crash, calling it the biggest regret of his life and something that affected his friendship with Thurman for years.
