Here are some very interesting facts you’d want to know about this movie-
  1. Set in the 1960s, this movie has been written and directed by Quentin Tarantino who has received many industry awards, including two Academy Awards, two BAFTA Awards, two Golden Globe Awards and the Palme d'Or.
  2. It was first announced in July 2017 and its official trailer was released on May 21, 2019
  3. In August 2018, additional castings were made, including Damon Herriman as Charles Manson, and Lena Dunham, Austin Butler, Danny Strong, Rumer Willis, Dreama Walker, and Margaret Qualley cast in supporting roles
  4. Burt Reynolds died in September 2018 before filming any of his scenes, and Bruce Dern was cast as George Spahn in his place
  5. In the wake of the Harvey Weinstein sexual abuse allegations, Tarantino severed his ties with producer Weinstein and sought a new distributor, after having worked with Weinstein for his entire career
  6. The movie featured the 1960s music by The Mamas & the Papas (“Straight Shooter”) and by Los Bravos (“Bring a Little Lovin”)
  7. Three weeks before its release, industry tracking projected the film could gross around $30 million in its opening weekend
  8. On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 92%, based on 90 reviews, with an average rating of 8.24/10
  9. Critics called the film “Tarantino’s love letter to ’60s L.A.'”
  10. Despite the fact that some of the characters are real people who were a part of 1960s Hollywood, this movie is a pure work of fiction as confirmed by its makers. DiCaprio and Pitt’s characters are based on several real-life Hollywood actors such as Burt Reynolds and Hal Needham. But the similarity ends there as the story is purely fictional.
  11. On November 11, 2017, Sony Pictures announced they would be distributing the film after beating strong contenders like Warner Bros., Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, Annapurna Pictures and others for the rights
  12. In order to secure the rights to distribute the film, Sony Pictures had to bow down to Tarantino’s demands which include his demand that the rights to the movie revert to him after about 10 to 20 years
All in all, with Once upon a time in Hollywood boasting of an ensemble cast of powerful actors and great performance both rolled into one, this is one movie you shouldn’t be giving a miss. So, what are you waiting for? Go, grab that popcorn and head for the theatres.
