“Well…the fuckin hippies aren’t.” -Rick Dalton
*Thats for Goddamn sure*
@@MasterBetty69 😂
Damn right.
^^this guy's my wonderwall
That's for goddamn sure
Some one had pointed out that the final fight was basically the whole stunt-double/actor relationship: Cliff does all the hard work, gets dirty doing it, and Rick gets the "blaze of glory" moment and all of the rewards (hanging with Tate and probably getting hooked up with Polanski).
Tarantino points it out in the book.
@@Bill-oe6pw never read whichever book you are talking about. It makes sense that he would do it that way. Tarantino always makes sure his big parts have symmetry and always makes sure a woman's foot is in frame a couple times a movie.
@@paulhewes7333 Tarantino wrote a novel based on the movie script. It's like the movie but with a few changes and an expanded plot. I recommend reading it if you like the film, I quite enjoyed it
@@Shitgotmegeekin actually he wrote it as a novel and then wrote it into the movie script. He also wrote a novel on the life of Rick Dalton after the movie was released. But has yet to come out and probably never will.
@@dre400 eitherway, it’s a good read!
This is a film that gets better on future viewings. I wasn't massively sold first time round but it really is brilliant.
Yeah it might be his most "boring" movie, but somehow it's still more fun to watch than most movies out there
I feel the same. Upon first watching I thought it was pretty enjoyable, but it really is a lot tighter than I thought.
@@CaptainOfGames Yeah, "nothing" happens for so long, but it's still engrossing.
Honestly I don’t get how short of an attention span ppl must have to think this movie is “boring”. Like wtf. This movie is entertainment non stop
I was about to comment the exact same thing. Just get better and better, and im reading the novel version right now!
Brad clicking the dog into action is peak satisfaction.
The girl that even offers Cliff the acid cigarette is the Bride’s little girl in Kill Bill. Tarantino brought everyone out for this one. Lol
Margaret Qualley, Andie MacDowell's daughter
Wow, didn't recognize her! Only other thing I've seen her in was sandman's daughter in spider-man 3
She is also in The Nice Guys.
Margaret Qualley did not play the Bride's daughter in Kill Bill. She didn't start acting until 2013.
@@Nethescurial95 Pearla Haney-Jardine is who OP is talking about. She sells Cliff the acid cigarette
Sharon Tate's sister did get to read the script beforehand and visit the set. She called Tarantino a very stand-up guy and actually lent Margot Robbie some of Sharon's jewelry and perfume for the movie!
Thats a really cool fact that I didn't know.
@@Shaughn21 Here's a quote from an interview, describing seeing and hearing Margot Robbie on the set of the movie. Debra Tate: "She made me cry because she sounded just like Sharon. The tone in her voice was completely Sharon, and it just touched me so much that big tears [started falling]. The front of my shirt was wet. I actually got to see my sister again...nearly 50 years later."
Sad the movie wasn't filmed in smellovision then. lol
@@brainstorm9560 thought exactly the same lmao. What did they think was the use for that, like we would smell her through the screen
@@dareal191 it’s to help the actor get into character better, it’s not meant for the audience. You would surprise at the research some actors do to portray a real life person.
The scene where Leo is raging in his trailer about his terrible performance is one of the best piece of acting ever, quite ironic.
absolutely man
No. The scene in Django at the dinner table is definetly better.
@@DaeLh each to their own mate
He got robbed of another Oscar
@@DaeLh different stokes I agree with you but it’s close
This is Brad Pitt’s best character since Tyler Durden in Fight Club. Some people didn’t like this film but I genuinely loved it for Pitt and Leo’s performance.
Agree about Brad, glad he finally got the Academy Award. Too bad his past films didn't bring him awards. Really skilled actor.
Brad Pitt was great in this.
i wish we could have another movie with this two character... watching this movie always puts me in a good mood
Same honestly they are quite the pair
He was really good in moneyball too but I think this is his best character in his career
The last half hour of this movie might be my favorite QT ever. You still need to watch True Romance, written by Tarantino and directed by Tony Scott. It’s awesome.
True romance is my favourite film of all time so I 100% second this comment👍👍 What a picture, what dialogue!
One of my top favorite films ever! Between QT's script, Tony Scott's direction and a cast to die for giving dynamite performances, I'm so sad and surprised this movie doesn't get watched more frequently by way more people.
He hasn't seen True Romance yet???? That should have been a starting point
@@philthemovieguy81 its such an underrated gem, and without spoilers for which bit, it has one of the greatest scenes of dialogue in any film ever made!
Rest in peace
The scene with Leo acting his ass off as another character with the girl on his lap is one of my all time favorite acting scenes ever
Its so good cause Leo is acting as Rick Dalton acting as that character lol
Same here.
He's a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude
@@kupoflupo3346 the dudes are emerging.
Its also funny how his lines he has to read are hilariously tongue twistery that no actor would ever be comfortable saying and he messes up the first time but finally gets it right in that final scene. You know Tarantino intentionally wrote it to be totally absurd. Theres so much meta stuff in the movie its insane
my 3rd favorite cinema experience ever. the entire crowd was laughing at the violence at the end. the whole thing made me appreciate the art of making movies.
Just curious what are your top 2?
@@seppie3555 in 2007 sweeney todd: the demon barber of fleet street & in 2016 the doctor strange movie.
@@yellowdevil8396 Interesting what was it in particular that made them stand out so much?
@@hurleyp6 sweeney todd was so memorable because its the only time that most of the cinema was packed with cosplayers from a goth community. alot of people were dressed up in a classic 1840's london look or tried to copy the "dream" couple look of helena bonham carters fantasy family. not even for comicbook or star wars movies did i ever see cosplay at the cinema. it was a really fun atmosphere and i wish to see another cosplay crowd again someday but no luck so far.
dr strange on the other hand... was very personal. i had a woman invited to a convention and wanted to get to know her better before i take her with me on a 20 hours trip with my friends to avoid a boring experience for both of us (since we only had talked for 20 minutes in total up to that point). i wanted to see the movie and just asked her if she wants to see it too and we could actually talk afterwards in my favorite bar to see if our first impressions hold up before such a long travel together. and damn... i was not ready for that movie experience. unknown to me... she had a crush on me for 12 months already while i didnt even know that she existed and she used that opportunity like a pro. it wasnt a date, the topic didnt even exist between us because i knew almost nothing about her. so our mindsets were completely different when the movie started. it was a doubleseat (without barrier) so within 20 minutes she was basically cuddling like some overly friendly cat while i was completely confused about a stranger being so damn escalating and trusting out of nowhere basically. the movie went on and both of us got comfortable with the situation that she had created on purpose. in the last 3rd of the movie she was basically sitting on me and probably not watching the movie while i pay attention to my favorite marvel character and am not just enjoying her soft touching. a cinema experience that i probably wont forget. it wouldnt have made the list if i had the context beforehand about her being into me for such a long time but the whole "wtf is going on here" confusion made it stick since for me it was legit like "i have seen her 3 times in public for 20 minutes in total and this wasnt on the table at all". oh... and yes. we were a couple 3 hours later. and thank god dr strange was actually a good movie on top of it XD
greetings from germany and enjoy your day^^
@@yellowdevil8396 both sound like a blast man!
Congrats and greetings from Ireland
Remember he actually said he was one “pool party” away from being in a Polanski movie. And he had quite the pool party
My mom’s high-school sweetheart was Steven Parent, the Manson’s family first victim the night of Sharon Tate’s murder. Her prom photo with him is in the book “Helter Skelter”. She’s only talked about it publicly once.
I’m so glad this was the last film I saw in cinemas pre-pandemic. Twice. Love it.
Same, twice.
Last film I watched was with my Lil bro and sis. Which was The Hunt. I used to go to the movies Alot but stopped around 2018. I took going to the movies for granted. Wished I watched this film in theaters.
*Quentin does a great job rewriting history. Makes the endings satisfying*
very true
I liked that they barely show Manson - making him a minor, insignificant character and taking away his mystique and power, so to speak.
@@deathproofpony i actually feel it kind of does the opposite
@@deathproofpony Good point i didn't think about that , it worked.
Tarantino has a tendency to make “hang-out” movies that are as investing as some of the best thrillers. My favorite example of this; the conversation Samuel L. Jackson’s character shares with Bruce Dern’s character in The Hateful Eight.
Hateful eight is definitely not a hangout movie. That’s a western thriller
Do you mean a hang out scene like in Reservoir Dogs in the opening? With them talking in the diner?
@@Serenity113 yeah, he gave a poor example but examples are sam jackson and deniro talking about guns in the beginning of jackie brown, the girls talking for almost the entirety of death proof, and yeah the reservoir dogs opening scene
I remember watching this in theaters and the whole place erupted into loud cheers when DiCaprio walked out with the flamethrower. One of my favorite moviegoing experiences ever.
The ending to once upon a time is my favorite of all of Tarantino’s work, the film really subverts your expectations with it shying away from violence for the duration of the film. When Cliff goes to span ranch and is surrounded by the cult, you think it’s a classic build up for a crazy violent action scene similar to the bar scene in bastards but it just ends with a punch in the face. He saves a whole films worse of crazy violence in an explosive 5 minute scene that is almost comical on some of the most despicable people in American history
There’s no chance they’re even in the top 100,000 of the list of despicable people in American history
@@tellietubbiesgoboom you can make the argument that those 3 people killed the kindered spirit of the 1960s, sure there’s people who did horrible things worse then the Manson clowns but, if you look at the impact they had on generations of people I think they go down as some of the worst in American history from the reactions they caused world wide
@@AwayAgain Lol ok we live in a world we're Obama killed thousand of innocent civilians using drones and that's considered ok
@@tehdouglas1 Obama wasn’t flying those drones chief
@@AwayAgain He both ordered their deployment and took responsibility apologizing for those actions but he still did it. Thousands of woman and children blown to nothingness
When he brought that flamethrower out the whole theater screamed in hype lol. Shit was great.
Don't forget the movies that Tarantino wrote but didn't direct: True Romance and From Dusk Till Dawn. Both definitely worth watching. Also Four Rooms, which Tarantino directed a segment in. And then finally there's Natural Born Killers, which Tarantino wrote the first draft of, but it got changed a lot along the way. (There's also an episode of CSI directed by Tarantino which is really good, but I'm not expecting you to react to that one, just wanted to let you know)
I would love to see Brandon react to From Dusk Till Dawn! Perfect movie to go into blind.
yes, all 4 of those deserve a reaction!! True Romance, From Dusk Till Dawn, Four Rooms and Natural Born Killers
They are both fantastic and True Romance feels like the lost Tarantino movie.
@@CharmingNewSociety
I went in "blind" a friend brought the VHS tape over to the house. Figured it was just a heist flick, but Clooney, Tarantino and Harvey Keitel was enough reason to see it.
Blew my mind!
Luckily I was smart enough as a kid my parents let me watch fdtd when I was like 8-9. Loved it then and still love it now! Also four rooms is under rated.
No lie, second favorite Tarantino Film. I just love the exploration of 60s Hollywood
Ehhhh…..Django Unchained and Pulp Fiction are my faves
What's your favourite?
It's my favorite. Second is Pulp Fiction, then Inglorious.
Leonardo DiCaprio’s best character Hands down. Him crying and yelling in his Trailer is the funniest thing ever.
I love how much he hate hippies. Despises them haha
Yes, it is Bruce Lee. Well, an actor playing Bruce Lee from that time period. Notice they called him "Kato". Bruce Lee was Kato in the _Green Hornet_ TV show. This fight scene had some controversy around it. Bruce Lee's daughter, who manages his estate, wasn't thrilled with how he was portrayed.
Brandon now has to watch dragon: the Bruce Lee story
I think it's pretty clear that Tarantino portrayed Bruce Lee as a clown. Remember that Tarantino worked with David Carradine in Kill Bill, and there was a lot of conflict back in the day about how Carradine got the lead in Kung Fu over Lee. Remember that Tarrantino makes revenge movies. Maybe there's something to this.
@@BrianNIL I think he said in an interview that he did it because it's an alternative reality. So a random stuntman being up to beat up Bruce Lee is possible.
I mean we know how the Sharon Tate stuff played out. Why trip over a sequence in a movie that never even remotely happened?
Tarantino on Rogan said that in the day it was well known in the stunt community that Lee looked down on stuntmen and didn’t respect their craft
@@gsherman27 Thank you, that would explain it!
One bit a lot of people miss about the Bruce Lee sequence is that it's doing exactly what Marvin Shwarz described when talking about the concept of The Heavy. Bruce Lee is a well known face, who starred in action movies, and was generally seen as a badass. So when he shows up here acting like a villain, and Cliff Booth kicks his ass, it's to make the audience think "Wow, Cliff is such a badass! Look how easily he took down Bruce Lee!" just like Shwarz described.
Not really more of a look at how young Bruce was very cocky and disrespected american stunt doubles by hitting them till they flat out refused to work with him so the studio hired Judo National champion Gene Lebel who also was the size of a bear, after Bruce tried the cocky attitude with Gene, gene picked him up under his arm and walked around with him with bruce struggling like a child.
Bruce did got more humble in his later years though and is still a martial art legend for how outside the box he thought not to mention of course a action movie icon.
@@meialuakampinas I think you are both correct , it did the job of showing Bruce lee's cockiness and how tough and confident Cliff was.
@@gingerbill128 and the latter is the point of the scene.
I think getting in the ring with Bruce at all is a victory. Like, if even a third of the stories about him were true, I’d fear for the life of almost anyone going against him hand to hand
@@thatguy779 thats cause you believe in fantasy.
Never would have expected this film to be my favorite Tarantino film, because on paper it shouldn't but everything is running on all cylinders. Also it helps to know the Manson family story before hand because my friend lost when he saw it.
When I saw this in the theaters, it reminded me why we go to the movies, and the difference from just watching at home.
Before the movie I was wondering why did Tarantino put ellipsis, but after the ending I fully understand. It was the perfect point to remind people that it's a fairytale - this is how everyone hoped it happened, but it happened just Once Upon a time...
P.S. The Massacre in Rick's house is probably one of the most rewatchable scenes in history of cinema, certainly one of the most satisfying.
This movie just might be one of my favorite from QT. Such a bittersweet nostalgic vibe in the ending, with a twist on what essentially was the end of the spirit of the 60s.
I genuinely think this is one of, if not the best acting performance Dicaprio has ever had. Such a masterclass in acting.
And Tarantino must have had Brad Pitt in mind the whole time writing. He is the perfect actor for that role.
I love it how Brandon literally did the Leo Pointing Meme at 13:56
😂😂😂
I love how Tarantino builds in a happy ending for Sharon Tate even after the credits. Roman Polanski turned out to be a creep, so there’s an implication that she’ll eventually get back together with Emile Hirsch.
Never seen "The Great Escape"?! Brandon you know what you have to do now right? Queue that bad boy up, it's an amazing movie I think you would love!
Definitely, such a classic!
Such a fantastic film!
Have a WW2 evening The Great Escape, Kelly’s Heroes & The Dirty Dozen. All a blast!
Brandon's building dread about the coming killings just makes me laugh even more knowing what's about to go down! And the look on his face as it does go down is one of his absolute best reactions!
He starred in spaghetti westerns. That was considered extremely low-brow and just short of doing porn when it started, but it exploded unto the scene. So he is upset because he thinks he is finally hitting rock bottom, having to star in italian spaghetti westerns, but he doesnt know yet thats the next big thing.
I love this movie so much. Brad Pitt got a lot of praise of course, but I really loved Leo's role as a struggling actor here. Actingception :D Watching the ending in cinema was epic :D Never seen the audience laughing that hysterically before. :D
I watched this with no idea about the Manson events/connection and still thought it was really good but after watching your video it has tied so much stuff together and got me to appreciate it a lot more
Love how he keeps Sharon in the movie clips but edits everyone else into the films .. nice touch
The scenes with the little girl actor were great
When I first saw this I was glued to the screen the whole time waiting for something to explode, when the finale came I was not disappointed!! Leo & BP are awesome
Margaret Qualley is the actress who plays Pussycat, she's from the HBO series The Leftovers which is one of the best drama shows ever. Also if you played the game Death Stranding, she's Mama/Lockne.
Also Andie MacDowell's daughter
She was also in The Nice Guys.
My favorite Quentin movie, great acting and love the alternate ending. Brad totally deserved his academy award.
The FBI episode where Rick is in was done by Burt Reynolds in real life - Reynolds was supposed to be George Spahn in this film but died before his scenes could be filmed. In the Lancer pilot Rick does the role that Joe Don Baker did (and the pilot itself is different in places)
The "problem" with Italian movies, or any movies filmed outside of Hollywood for that matter, is that they were essentially where washed-up actors who weren't famous enough for Hollywood anymore went to die. Or at least that's how the industry perceived them. Spaghetti Westerns had a particular stigma against them in the 60s and 70s as being cheap and inauthentic, and for an American actor to go and star in those movies instead of movies back home indicated that they couldn't hack it in the big leagues and had to do B-movies. It's the equivalent of a modern A-lister suddenly doing exclusively direct-to-DVD or Netflix originals because they don't draw crowds to theaters anymore. Ironically, of the westerns most fondly remembered today from that era, certain Spaghetti Westerns stand tall among them. For every few dozen cookie cutter westerns filmed in Italy, there were a few directed by the likes of Sergio Leone that blew even the ones made in Hollywood out of the water. Public perception of Spaghetti Westerns changed dramatically from negative to positive after their heyday was over.
Worked for Clint...
One of the best films EVER. I saw this in theatres three times and seven times total
When people in the audience saw the ending, they were cheering and laughing.
This was my first Tarantino movie that I saw in theaters. Had a blast watching him work his magic in the theater
Definitely my favorite cinema experience ever! That ending scene had the entire theatre howling
This is such a rewarding film if have you any knowledge about the Manson family or just the 1960's in general, although that ending is reward enough lol. I know that some people aren't particularly fans of this one because there's not really much of a traditional "plot" that goes from point A to point B, I guess you can say. But I honestly think, as time progresses, more people will agree that this is Tarantino's most finely-crafted film.
Nope. It's not even close to being his best crafted film. Pacing, great character development, engaging dialogues, plot and story all have to come into play when judging a film's all around quality. And I'm sorry, but OUATIH is heavily lacking in ALL of those categories. Especially when compared to his previous and older works.
Great cinematography, visuals, set designs, wardrobes, music and all that other technical stuff that Tarantino always nails to a t, but other than that? It's just ok imo.
I could watch the last 30 minutes of this film on an endless loop.
Yes !
True Romance is in my top 10 favorite movies ever...it's a must see!
Check out the 70s movie Badlands. It definitely influenced the plot of True Romance.
This is in my top 5 films of all time, so I think this has been my most anticipated reaction. I know this will be worth the wait!!! 😆
How was it?
Thing I love about this is it not only saves Sharon her baby and friends. But you gotta think it revived Dalton's career...... he's a major real life badass now.
11:18 Brandon doing his best Leo meme impression.
Those interesting noises Al Pacino made in the beginning of the film was in reference to the old Batman and robin TV series. When Batman and robin would fight every time a punch was thrown, the television screen would pop up with the words “POW” or “THWAP” or “BOP”
Brandon.... If I had to pick a favorite Tarantino film this would likely be The One .That time era was one I wish I had been around to experience. There is so much to love about this film.... with your reactions and comments gave even more to enjoy. The scenes where Manson is in with Bryan Wilson and trying to get his way into the music business , how Bruce Lee egged on a "fun" fight with Brad and got slammed into a car door, and the end scene where Cliff , Brandy , and Rick took on the Manson Family.... I know we all wanted it to go down that way.
I think it is very cool that the dog Brandy even got her own stunt double for this film. I am very happy with your reaction video for "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood" Thank you very much.
The man smiles when he sees Al Pacino, we won that fam
I really recommend reading the novel based on this film! It really goes more in depth with the characters and some of the details that are left out. Love the video Brandon!
Quentin has the super power to make any interaction between characters always interesting.
Dude.
Best birthday present I could've asked for. The day started rough but this truly makes it better.
Thanks, Brandon, cuddos on your super chill vibe and the great community you've got going...!
(Also, never cry in front of the Mexicans...) Favorite one from _Tarantino's Ten._
🎂
I love this movie soooooooooooo much. I saw it 9 times in the theater which is my record that will probably stand now. I come from a movie buff family and my mom really loved Brad Pitt. She liked it so much on the way out she was like "I want to come back." She never said that before. She was a big western fan too. There is still a standee of Roy Rogers upstairs. All of us who knew the story of Sharon Tate were happy to see the story corrected. I wasn't alive at the time but my mom remembered it well. I consider Tarantino a healer. He fixes the wrongs of history with his movies and it helps people I think. For Gen X beginner film buffs in the 90s, Tarantino sort of became our godfather. He influenced and flat out taught all of us so much. My favorite moment in this movie is watching these icons watch TV. Where it cut between them and Pacino watching "FBI". It made them normal like us. That part he played in the TV, in real life, was Burt Reynolds, who was supposed to play the part Bruce Dern did in this movie. It broke my heart that he died before he did it because Quentin is actually named after one of his characters as his mom was a fan of Reynolds. God is a crappy screenwriter. The director guy 23:04 was the first Spider-Man that I knew as a kid. He was the star of the TV series in the late 70s. Everything about this movie is nostalgia for all of us. It was a love letter to Hollywood and a simpler time before evil took hold. QT made this movie for himself as a fan and therefore for the rest of us. It's his masterpiece of masterpieces.
The most coolest acting from Brad Pitt.
The movie is amazing.
Some fun facts:
The quote about the devil's business was an actual quote from Tex.
The girl who drove off and left the other three behind in real life did not actually kill anyone even though she was there when it happened... and she was the one to give testimony against them.
Bruce Lee actually did train Sharon Tate for that sequence in The Wrecking Crew.
The song the girls are singing when we first see them was a song written by Manson.
Some films I would recommend either that Tarantino has a part in or he helped produce include:
Four Rooms and From Dusk Till Dawn.
Also he had wanted to have Burt Reynolds as the man in the bed on the ranch, but since he died Quentin went with Bruce Dern.
Brad Pitt Finally won an Oscar and it was for this film. The reason he hadn’t won before was because of Weinstein and how Pitt and spoken about not liking him before so Harvey did everything he could so Brad wouldn’t win an Oscar and since Weinstein was arrested the path was clear for him to win.
This film also won for Best Production Design.
Tarantino was one of four directors to film a segment for Four Rooms. He wrote the script for From Dusk 'Til Dawn in addition to acting in it, plus he wrote the scripts for Natural Born Killers and True Romance.
@@CineRam He hated that Oliver Stone took his story idea for Natural Born Killers and said “If you like my films don’t watch it”.
True Romance as well
@@StansD4d True Romance is the opposite of NBK, Tarantino even though he didn't direct TR he totally endorses what they did with his script.
Hollywood just won't be the same when Tarantino hangs it up. His films are so unique and well made.
I believe Tarantino described this film as his “love letter to Hollywood.” I think this is the perfect description. The long and gorgeous shots, colorful design, and the classic alternate Tarantino-verse.
I especially love that 14 Fists of McCluskey is obviously a movie within the movie-verse, inspired by the Inglorious Bastards, more history Tarantino rewrote in said movie-verse.
One of the greatest Tarantino pictures ever made, and one of the greatest pictures in the recent years.
THIS IS THE BEST HANGOUT MOVIE ABOUT HOLLYWOOD‼️‼️‼️
This and Inglorious Basterds are my fav Tarantino movies. Both damn near perfection
Agreed.
I remember watching the last part at the cinema with my brother. When Rick came out with the flamethrower all of us in the audience just bursted out laughing. It was absolutely over the top and we just loved it!!!!
Brandon being worried for Rick and Cliff is so funny to me 😂😂😂
i know he's supposed to do one more before retiring but he's actually said that this could be his last, he feels it's kind of the best he's ever going to do and at this period in his life he wants to do other stuff than filmmaking. he just got a kid, released the book, and wants to do plays. he said he hasn't completely discarded the idea of making his last film but, that it will take a while before he does it and that if his life goes in another direction he said he'd be fine with Once Upon a Time in Hollywood being his last movie.
He finally did his first stunt himself, and it was worth the almost 3 hour viewing experience
How this film didn't win Best Pic at the Oscars is astounding. Nice reaction.
The Tarantino journey closes so another one opens , Some more Evil dead sounds groovy 😂
My favorite Tarantino movie ever. THE ENTIRE MOVIE. I absolutely loved it, this is the peak of his talent
Brandon, Four Rooms is worth checking out. It's 4 connecting short films, one directed by Tarantino and another by Robert Rodriguez. Kind of precursor to Grindhouse.
The scene where Pitt is slamming the girl's head into the phone is so great. It ended up looking so good on camera because they just took the empty shell of an old rotary phone and filled it with foam, and put on little foam phone holders so that they could just have Pitt actually slam a stunt performer's head into it
The "Red Apples Cigarettes" - ad in the credits is not just a normal advert... "Red Apple Cigarettes" is a fictional brand that was created by Quentin Tarantino... They appear in "Kill Bill Vol. 1" "Pulp Fiction" "Death Proof" "Hateful Eight" "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" and even some Rodriguez movies including "Planet Terror" and "From Dusk til Dawn" I believe... "Big Kahuna Burger" also appears in "From Dusk Til Dawn" besides famously and more present in "Pulp Fiction"
I was just going to re-watch Once Upon a time in Hollywood when I saw this :)
Tom Cruise was originally going playing Cliff Booth, he read the script and he love it. But he was verry busy with Mission Impossible so he left the ship.
Is this true? Was Leo still gonna be Rick? Cruise does not look like a Leo stunt double at all.
@@bobrhubarbtv591 yes that true.
Then we definitely dodged a bullet.
One of the best theatre experiences I’ve ever had.
Just one last movie, and it will be over. Quentin Tarantino has left an impressive legacy and is one of the most prolific directors in Hollywood now. Can't wait to see what his final work will be.
I was actually on old Hollywood Blvd during the time they were filming the driving scene for this movie. Some stores and places had been completely transformed to their original look and new places had retro signs put up in place of their own. Walking down that area that day made me feel like I was actually walking on Hollywood Blvd in 1969. There were also security guards posted on every corner since the day I was there was a day of actual filming
Honestly my favorite Tarantino movie, I’m very excited to see his final work.
Have u read the novel
@@kdizzle901 nah not yet, it just came out, right? Maybe I should pick it up!
@@Ryllas01 yea I have it on hold at the library
It very cool watching a reaction to someone who understands this movies references
I think that this movie is Tarantino's best film since Pulp Fiction.
Agreed. It's one of the few movies I've gone to the theater multiple times to see.
I love this movie. I've seen it several times. Not only is this movie great, but the movie takes me back to that era which I miss so much.
The scene where Bruce Lee acts humbled by Brad Pitt after acting haughty makes me laugh every time.
34:55 - pretty much the identical reaction everyone had when I saw this in the theater. SOOOOO satisfying.
Great reaction, this movie didn't work for me first time but I got more into it the second time. If you've not seen the Coen brothers "true grit" I'd highly recommend that, whether for the Channel or just your own enjoyment it's a brilliant movie.
This was the best representation of how someone on acid actually acts. The giggles, the awareness…perfect.
It was spot on. The reactions were perfect. The whole watching his hand move through space set up the acid mood, where cheesey visual effects might have ruined it. That’s economical storytelling.
The best Tarantino movie imo
He even wrote his 1st novel "Once upon a time in hollywood" which came out this august!
It’s such a bittersweet movie, knowing the terrible things that occurred in real life.
I like some of the random shot analysis, like “the way he lingers on this shot builds tension. What’s going to happen next?” Nothing happens, but it’s great that you’re picking up and pointing out all the little techniques Tarantino uses to raise the temperature slowly. I never noticed that shot until it was pointed out; thanks for teaching me something.
Margot Robbie actually wore Sharon Tate's personal jewellery in this film, which I thought was pretty cool.
This is and, I suspect, will always be my favourite film of all time
Everyone in this movie was amazing. Also I'd like to reccomend you a movie, It's called Midnight Cowboy. It stars Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman. It's so worth it. (the finale of this movie is spectacular)
Tarantino said he had a great time shooting DiCaprio's TV and movie clips so much that if he had the budget, time and complete freedom he would've shot full episodes of Bounty Law and the other shows.
Also, in an interview with Nolan (I think) he said something about the first idea of The Hateful Eight's characters came from old TV shows where they would use an actor who wasn't in the peak of his career to play the villain for an episode, and that's the way he wrote all of them. I love that so much and how that came to life in this movie as well
The Bruce Lee fight wasn't cliff's imagination, it was a flash back to actual events that happened in this movie's universe
Rick was filming a pilot for a TV show, not a film, in the middle of this film. In the 60s, there were alot of western TV shows than there were today
Tarantino did something pretty unique here. He built up this immersive environment and interesting characters, made us think it's fictionalized reality, and created a sense of dread and sadness as we see Tate leading up to the night. Then he flips a giant middle finger at fate and changes the story into a wild and crazy circus redemption. In fact, I think that should be a term for it: "Circus redemption."
Red Apple Cigarettes are the same type of cigarettes that Butch asked for when he went to go and see Marcellus Wallace in Pulp Fiction. QT loves doing little callbacks to his other films.
Same universe?
@@wtfisditvoorbullshit Well there is really not enough to connect them BUT "Red Apple Cigarettes) are a fictional brand of cigarettes and they appear in a number of Tarantino films, so I would say that his films (at least most of them) exist in the same Universe.
@@tbirum Yeah, people have been theorizing about that. It's interesting and fun to think about
Tarantino published a paperback novel adaptation of this that is excellent. Has similarities but also many differences. Much more background and depth to the characters, making it great compliment to the film. Made me love it even more.
That being said, the film's last image is one of my all time favorites. Rick walking through the gate, up the hill, to meet Sharon and her friends as the camera raises above them-- gives me chills every time.
