How does he get away with it?

Rating: 8/10 (14 August 2019)

Another Tarantino monster of a film. It grabs you by the neck at once and drags you through two and a half hours of late 60's Hollywood bravaura based on the life of a TV stuntman and his body double. Its full of dark humour as you'd expect, and it's a winner in all the artistic departments, including acting. But I don't like a director who's so cocky and manipulative that he eventually can't resist the temptation to distort history by turning the Tate murders into a tale of revenge where the guilty foursome end up as the victims. How does he get away with it?
