It’s the hot buzz film that had all of Cannes swooning in late May. Quentin Tarantino's ninth film visits 1969 Los Angeles, where everything is changing, as fading TV star Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio) and his longtime stunt double and best buddy Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt) make their way around an industry they hardly recognize anymore. Running parallel to Rick and Cliff's story are glimpses into the more glamorous lives of Rick's next-door neighbors, Sharon Tate and Roman Polanski, whose proximity only makes Rick's exclusion from the New Hollywood club sting more. The nearly three-hour film from Tarantino features a large ensemble cast, that includes Al Pacino and Margot Robbie, among others, and multiple storylines in a tribute to the final moments of Hollywood's golden age -- with a particularly shocking finale.
