The TVI Take

Quentin Tarantino's valentine to 1969 Hollywood featuring a fading TV actor and his stuntman. Exceptional craft — the recreation of late-1960s Los Angeles is extraordinary.

Educational about the Hollywood system of the period and the Manson Family murders. Brad Pitt won the Oscar. The film's revision of the Manson murders is divisive but formally deliberate.
