Plot: Quentin Tarantino's ninth feature film is a story that takes place in Los Angeles in 1969, at the height of hippy Hollywood. Actor Rick Dalton gained fame and fortune by starring in a 1950s television Western, but is now struggling to find meaningful work in a Hollywood that he doesn't recognize anymore. He spends most of his time drinking and palling around with Cliff Booth, his easygoing best friend and longtime stunt double. Rick also happens to live next door to Roman Polanski and Sharon Tate -- the filmmaker and budding actress whose futures will forever be altered by members of the Manson Family.
My Movie Review: The movie is fun ride and least violent venture serves as a passionate love letter to the unsuspecting, carefree energy of the swinging sixties' cinema in Hollywood culture! Quentin Tarantino film work have been bloody and violent contrast with his ninth feature which bubbly light despite being tense as a fading star and his stunt double whose rambling exploits! Once Upon A Time In Hollywood is a lovingly crafted, sun-baked homage to a playful storming Tinseltown fairy-tale with full of stellar performances and Sharon Tate as one of key characters! Leonardo DiCaprio is back big time! he hasn't lost his ability to light up our screens even after four years away from it his portrayal of the TV star Rick Dalton is a hot Oscar favorite already:) Margot Robbie is glowing luminescent to say the least she brings life to character like no one's business what a natural actress perfect for the role with her golden locks that light up the night! Brad Pitt is a bad-ass worth mentioning as his very statuesque stunt double who's impulsively starts a fight with a hotheaded Bruce Lee and his by far the tougher and more of resilient man:)
Movie News: Let’s Talk About the Ending of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood you’ve probably gathered that something is up with the ending. Though critics as urged on by Tarantino himself, have been wary of giving too much away, many of them can’t help but mention that the movie’s final act includes a controversial creative choice that audiences will be talking about all the way home. If you’ve been reading between the lines of the reviews, you’ve likely gathered that the film changes some aspects of the Manson Family murders of August 1969. Tarantino contrasts Leonardo DiCaprio’s Rick Dalton, a washed-up middle-aged actor reduced to playing the villain of the week on TV procedurals, with Margot Robbie’s Sharon Tate, whose youth and growing stardom represents the feeling of infinite possibility. To underline their contrasting trajectories, Dalton happens to live next door to now-infamous Cielo Drive compound where Tate is living with Roman Polanski. There are two likely inferences: Either Dalton and his stuntman Booth foil the murders, thus preserving in amber the film’s lovingly created period fantasy, or they get killed instead, as future belongs to the younger generation. In a film that’s constantly haunted by the ghosts of real-life events, there’s meaning in having Cliff Booth to save the day. For Tarantino, patron saint of underappreciated Hollywood jobbers' its something like poetic justice!
