Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (Quentin Tarantino, July 26, 2019) Movie • Page 14

1) looks awesome
2) still have NO IDEA what this is really about
3) still really hope it's not another "let's rewrite history" thing

 

Trailer looks really great

 

QT and Scorsese are the only directors that can keep me enthralled and a 2-/12 to 3 hour movie go by quickly

 

The material with Manson seems like it will be a re-write of history.

 

hoping the 2.5+ hour runtime means this is more Jackie Brown than Django

 

believe it started at 1030 eastern time

 

still looks great.

 

This looks really fucking good. Like next level.

 

reactions trickling in, sounds lovely

 

this is going to be a wild trip

 

sounds like act 3 is typical Tarantino crazy

 

Wondering if I should watch it or not. Hmm.

 

A lot of my interest in this is going to be determined by how it deals with Polanski.

 

I'm so hyped for this movie.

 

Hm, what could that mean

 

To the last part?

 

‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood’: First Reactions Pour in From Cannes

 

No, to "What would Roman Polanski think?" Does that mean the film portrays him negatively (as it should)? Does it just mean the writer wonders what Polanski thinks of his wife's murder being portrayed on film in general? I don't know but I would like to know.

 

Yea, I'm guessing he wouldn't want to see a depiction of how his wife was brutally murdered.

 

Unless that isn't what happens in the movie. But even if it is, why would you then wonder what he'd think? Seems pretty obvious what he'd think if that were the case.

 

Is there ANY chance he went full alternate history and killed him instead? He wouldn’t try something that risky, right?

Also I don’t understand how it’s “cheeky” to suggest that Hollywood was always a cesspool of horrifying behavior that hid behind a veil of puritanical morality for decades. I hope he goes into that in great detail.

 

For some reason I thought this wasn't in competition at Cannes

 

it was unclear if it would be finished in time

 

I don't think there's anything too risky that Tarantino wouldn't try it. Polanski wasn't in the country when the murder happened so it would be a significant change, but then Hitler wasn't in France to be assassinated in a movie theater either, so.

I'm mostly just concerned (as you are) that the movie will portray Polanski as a sympathetic figure.
