Full Vanity Fair exclusive article with HQ set pics: Here

Quote:

Quentin Tarantino was six years old and living in the Los Angeles area when, in the summer of 1969, hell broke loose. You know this story: five people murdered over the course of two days that August, shot and stabbed by a clan of hippie impressionables in anticipation of Helter Skelter, Charles Manson’s idea of holy terror. It’s a Hollywood tale—not least because its most famous victim, the pregnant actress Sharon Tate, was the wife of director Roman Polanski, which put the terror square in the back lot’s backyard.

But it’s a Hollywood story for bigger reasons. This was an era, not merely an event; a lifestyle, a people, a widespread obsession—not merely a spot on a timeline or map. The city is a sprawl. So was 1969. And so is the work of Quentin Tarantino, whose last three movies were violent but (mass Nazi execution notwithstanding) playful excursions into history, all of them riffs on the deviant style and rough talkiness of the Westerns Tarantino loves, even the Dirty Dozen-esque World War II picture Inglourious Basterds, in which a motley troop of American badasses, a mock-Tennessean Brad Pitt at its helm, takes its grievances out on Nazi skulls.

Now he’s back with a Western of a different stripe: an old-school L.A. story à la Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown, the kind of city epic only a nostalgic of Tarantino’s wit and peculiarity could attempt to really do justice. Once Upon a Time . . . in Hollywood, which stars Leonardo DiCaprio as a faded TV Western star and Pitt as his stunt double, is, as its sand-battered title suggests, a throwback. For Los Angeles, sure, but also for Tarantino, who, after traveling as far and wide as the Third Reich and the Shaolin Temple, is bringing it home.

Once Upon a Time . . . in Hollywood will be released July 26.

Cannot freaking wait

Brad Pitt looks fit! Last time I saw him on anything he looked like a homeless druggy

LaLaLand · 26-01-2019, 10:48 AM

Haha he's definitely got a look of young Robert Redford in this movie!

An on-location Sunset Blvd/LA video I found taken during filming last July. It looks exactly as it did in 1969, down to the cars, fashion, signage, the Pussycat Theatre (where Tarantino worked his first job as a teenager)!! I absolutely love it.

Eerily, the song playing in this is Charles Manson's song "Look At Your Game Girl".

Youtube video

Just to give some reference, the ACTUAL street they've transformed how it was in the early 1970's. The accuracy is incredible.

Trailer is expected to drop any day now...

I've also just realised that in this picture is Tate and her three friends who were all murdered that terrible night by the Manson Family. Sharon Tate (Margot obviously), celebrity hairstylist Jay Sebring (behind Margot in striped pants), Abigail Folger and her boyfriend Wojciech Frykowski. So this scene is shot on the night of and just before their murders.

Spoiler:

I don't know how much of the incident will be depicted in the film, Tarantino actually met with Tate's sister before filming began to get her blessing for the movie, which he got, which makes me think it's not going to be a usual Quentin bloodbath affair.

HOWEVER some are wondering whether or not this movie will be similar to Inglorious Basters in the sense that it's revised, semi-fictional history, so Sharon Tate may be alive at the end of this movie. Who knows!

Hard to call it a set when it's actual, real Hollywood/Los Angeles

. Looks incredible.

Apparently, there is buzz that Lana Del Rey is contributing to the soundtrack. She reportedly had a meeting with Tarantino himself and someone from Paramount Studios and on top of this has posted recording studio stills on social media.

If true, this is SO fitting for the movie and the themes going on within. LDR's style of melancholy, nostalgic Hollywood is absolutely perfect for this. Wow.

Strictly Jake · 18-02-2019, 10:10 PM

Oh wow yeah Lana songs would defo suit this movie!

I can't wait to go and see this

Yeah same. I'm so excited.

Tarantino definitely has an ear for creating an amazing soundtrack for his movies so fingers crossed Lana is in there somewhere. I can think of so many that could fit that she's already done too. "Freak" came to mind straight away, seeing as the video is basically her as a "Manson girl".

Yeah I'm not in favour of her, but it seems her part is somewhat minor thankfully, just one of the non-murderous girls from the Manson Family (Catherine "Gypsy" Share, not involved with Tate etc).

Kurt Russell revealed his role in OUATIH: “I play a stunt double coordinator, who used to be a stunt double, but that now is the boss.” And in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Zoë Bell revealed hers: “I play the stunt coordinator’s wife.”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Bell also discussed how Tarantino had hired her to oversee the stunts on OUATIH, making her the first solo female stunt coordinator on a major feature. When he came to her with the idea, she was planning to take a year off to dedicate herself to AFI's Directing Workshop for Women: "Ultimately, I thought [OUATIH] is family. It’s Quentin. Also, women don’t often step into this role.”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Kurt Russell continued to touch on other aspects of the film: “Tarantino loves the Hollywood industry, and that can be seen in this movie. He’s in his game here, in his style." Russell also acknowledged similarities between his role as a stunt coordinator and one of his previous characters: “The whole Tarantino universe is connected. In Death Proof I played Stuntman Mike, who also was a stunt double… so my character in this film probably knew him!” Regarding the ending of OUATIH: “What happens at the end of the movie is genius. It even surprised me, and I know [Tarantino]."

Finding little tidbits like this. Dakota Fanning has also been described as a "powerhouse" in this movie, she plays Squeaky - one of the Family's most prolific members (she once attempted to assassinate US President Gerald Ford).

It sounds like this film is gonna be great! Brill director, awesome cast, interesting story ... why are people being negative?

A few reasons probably, but...

A) People just don't like Tarantino. He's probably the most polarising director of the past 30-odd years. Some absolutely love his films (me), others think his work is awful, including sensationalised violence and what not. "Marmite". Also he was a Weinstein guy, which doesn't help.

B) In regards to this movie in particular, I think many are sketchy because of the Manson/Tate stuff. Like, it really happened. People really were killed in such awful, horrific ways and many are worried this will glorify it. This movie though has the blessing of Sharon Tate's sister, so I don't think this is the case at all. The Hilary Duff Netflix movie however has not, and Sharon's sister is appalled by it.

I hadn't seen this before, so this is my first glimpse at everybody's favourite Lena Dunham playing Catherine Share in the movie. The other lady is Margaret Qualley who plays "Kitty Kat" (probably a nod to OG Manson girl Kitty).

Brad Pitt was filming with them on this day so we know that Brad interacts with "The Family" at least, in some way, shape or form. Looks like this was at Spahn's Movie Ranch (where The Family lived for a while, they used to film all of the old Western TV series and movies there). Seems like Brad and Leo meet Manson's mob innocently through "work" to begin with perhaps?
