OK so Brad Pitt falls in with some girl that hangs around Manson then when they go to kill Tate, Booth ends up killing Manson thus catapulting him into superstardom because he saved Sharon Tate and Rick Dalton's career slowly dies out over a bad scandal that break out and thus causing him to overdose.
shareThat's no spoiler, it's a rehash of Inglourious Basterds.
shareHow is that a rehash of Inglorious Basterds aside from subverting history?
shareHow's that a question when it answers itself?
shareSo having one thing in common means a movie is a rehash?
By that rationale, Pulp Fiction is a rehash of Reservoir Dogs because both movies have a nonlinear story. Or that Hateful 8 is a rehash of Django Unchained because they both take place in the 1800's.
Wow, talk about stomping all over Sharon Tate, Jay Sebring, Voytek Frykowski, Abigail Folger, Steve Parent, Leno and Rosemary LaBianca's graves. Thank you Quentin Tarantino.
shareThe strange thing is the movie could work out just fine without the history rewriting.
shareExactly! Why couldn't he have created a fake cult and fake set of people. One cannot rewrite history. The surviving members of the victims' families deserve peace. Bringing this up at the 50th anniversary mark of these crimes is just revolting. I would have likely gone to see it based on what you said. However..........
shareThe spoilers above are fake. That doesn't happen.
shareSomeone who saw the film told me the ending. I still say it's disingenuous to use these killings or "lack thereof" as a trope in any film. The only place these victims have been treated as human was in the original 1976 televised film "Helter Skelter" starring George DiCenzo as Bugliosi and Steve Railsback as Manson. There we only saw four of the victims depicted in Voytek Frykowski showing running from the house at Cielo. Same with Abigail Folger. Then we saw Leno and Rosemary LaBianca shown coming home from Lake Isabella with their boat attached to their car and stopping at the newsstand for a paper. In all other depictions Sharon has been shown as either a ditz or someone pregnant with a bowling ball and the actress walking like a duck. The other victims haven't fared any better. So the point I'm making here is when do we stop with the brazen disrespect being shown these victims? Tarantino didn't have the balls to talk to Roman because he knew he wasn't going to do Sharon or the other victims justice. And he didn't. And as Roman said back then when these crimes happened, "It's as if they blamed them for the way they lived." Sharon is shown as nothing but a dancing idiot. It's dehumanizing. As if she hasn't been dehumanized lo these many decades. This is the reason Polanski doesn't talk about her. He wants her memory left alone.
