The Friars Club has selected Quentin Tarantino for its annual roast Oct. 1 at the New York Hilton. The director of “Reservoir Dogs” and “Inglourious Basterds” follows in the brave footsteps of Matt Lauer, Donald Trump, Chevy Chase, Richard Pryor, Bruce Willis and Hugh Hefner, who were all ridiculed mercilessly and with language strong enough to make Lisa Lampanelli blush. Friars Club President Freddie Roman joked, “Having seen ‘Pulp Fiction’ and ‘Kill Bill,’ I pray that he understands that we only roast the ones we love.”
