Overview: Its a pure Tarantino Classic movie with great screenplay. Tarintino at its eccentric best

Storyline: As his fans are aware of Tarantino’s obsession with Black & White, he decides to open Once Upon A Time In Hollywood with B&W frames. We see an interview of a famous movie star Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio) along with his stunt double Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt). In the next scene, Rick meets Marvin Schwarz (Al Pacino) who offers him roles in Western films. While you watch that scene, note how it starts with Rick acting as a heavyweight but ends up realising the hardest truth of his life.

Rick pours out his heart in front of cliff about how he has reached the level that he has to shift to Western Films which he hate working in . While the movie showcases Rick Dalton’s journey from playing heavy weight till his western flings . Parallel to this Cliff booth who is driver cum stunt man and close friend of Rick , cliff encounters hippies who have taken over ranch land of his close freind . Cliff had an ugly encounter with them. He returns and goes with Rick to Italy for shoots .Rick returns with a newly wed wife too from Italy. The film also depicts story of Sharon
Tate’s (Margot Robbie) . Sharon is Dalton’s next-door neighbour, married to Robin Polanski (Rafał Zawierucha) and is also an actress. While the story intervenes between these Three leads, they’ve one thing common – passion for Hollywood.

Script Analysis &Director Review : Script is a classic Tarintino Movie with good screenplay that keeps you binded . Also bold statements , good sound designs , elaborate scenes form a good fist of the movie. Beautiful cinematography of Hollywood in 1969 will put you in awe.

Performances: Brilliant performance by Leonardo di Caprio . His expressions of emotions both sad and happy are portrayed by him to perfection.

Brad Pitt as Stuntman is brilliant. His stunts and his style will keep you hooked to your seats

Margaret Qualley as Pussycat play this animated young hippie and she does well with the part. She plays with those expressions, and the mystery around her character helps to connect well

Final Word :Watch it for sure as both Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt outshine in this movie.
