A lot of hearth

Rating: 9/10 (3 March 2020)

"Once upon a time in...Hollywood" is a strange movie in the sense that there isn't a clear plot but it's more like spending some time with these interesting characters and their lives. Rick Dalton and Cliff Booth played by DiCaprio and Brad Pitt are well characterised and I was so into what they were doing. Sharon Tate (Margot Robbie) is instead a symbol: she symbolises the happy, thoughtless and hopeful pre Cielo Drive Hollywood. Tarantino is excellent as usual in writing dialogues that keeps you interested and engaged. Everyone expects an excellent technical department by Tarantino and this is the case, but one thing that I found more prominent here that in his other movies is the heart. During the watching I felt the passion and the love that the director put into this work and I really appreciated this aspect. Indeed I think that doing something you like as a job is a blessing and this can bring to a better quality of it. And this movie is a proof of it. During the film I laughed a lot, there were some emotional moments but the ending is something else: crazy, funny, violent, fantastic! With "Once upon a time in...Hollywood" Tarantino manages to revive the city and the atmosphere of his childhood but also a period that changed Hollywood, but all in a fairy-tale fashion. It's not for everyone because of its particular structure but I personally liked this movie a lot.
