You really are a waste of flesh. You site 2 sources that point to the same interview of a woman who clearly states she was being ironic and sarcastic when she made the remarks.
You on the otherhand are a political flamethrower who is trying to attribute these stupid remarks to an entire class of people. You are an ASS who must spend your days masturbating to Sean Hannity.
You got this from Breitbart, dumbass. They have no credibility whatsoever.
Your logic is failing. The writer of this article disapproved of the Manson women being killed because it saw it as violence against women. This is ME TOO gone bat-crap crazy. I would say they would have been against them killing Tate as it would also be violence against women.
Did I say it was a film review?
That's a load of bull crap. You may be hypnotized by the Idiot President, but no one rooted for Manson killing people outside the Manson family itself. And to add on, Manson wasn't a Liberal, he was a racist who was trying to flame a race war.
You unfortunately are an idiot who has been totally mind-effed by the Fox News Generation.
While I don't agree with your premise that this article was promoting Manson's family to succeed in their killing, this article was a load of crap for other reasons. Most disgusting is the insinuation that Tarantino promoted violence against women because the movie portrays the would-be Manson family killers as being the victims. This is where the Me Too movement goes Bat-Crap Crazy.
It never occurred to me but there is no question about it. He clearly looked like McQueen and also clearly looked like Damien Lewis. It wasn't prosthetic makeup.
No, it's 2 words. I hope this improves your critical skills.
No, that is a superficial connection only to the extent that most all advertisements mention that this is QT's 9th movie. The title '8 1/2' came from the fact that it was Fellini's 8 1/2 film, one of his earlier films was a shared credit and he saw that one as a 1/2 of the film. If he took full credit then the title would have been 9. There was, of course, the Broadway Musical titled "Nine" based on Fellini's 8 1/2.
Even if the ending was more to his liking I sincerely doubt he'd see it. The only reason he might is that its a very friendly portrayal of his wife and he may want to see her again in a positive light.
QT is one of the last of the Film Auteur's to be working. Unfortunately, everything now is actors standing in front of green screens interacting with CGI special effects. Who needs a director that works with actors? What we have as Directors are people managing what happens during CGI segments.
I'm glad I'm not the only one getting sick of the Super Hero gangbang movies. Freakiest trend for a generation completely out of touch with the world. It used to be even a superhero movie was about 1 character. Now its got to be every damn one in some surreal superhero universe. I stopped going to movies. 'OUTIH' was the first new movie i've gone out to see in a while.
I also got that feeling that this was a more mature film than his earlier work and most all of the violence was at the end.
8 1/2 was made by a filmmaker at a crossroad in his career. Fellini was more than halfway through his career and was seen as one of the great directors of his generation. A leader in the genre of Italian Neo-realism, he started to feel constrained by it. 8 1/2 was about a fictional director at a crossroad in his career and suffered a crisis of confidence in his own talent and feared like many creative people do that he was a fraud and had nothing more to offer. This was a film more about process and exploring his own mind.
In many ways, Once Upon A Time does the same thing. When we see the film clips of Rick Dalton's past films, we are seeing clips that sometimes parody the films of QT, but always reminds us of films in his CV. Through Rick Dalton, who goes through the same crisis of confidence to the point he breaks down crying in from of that 8 yr old girl in that western set.
It is why Hollywood Boulevard is known as 'The Boulevard of Broken Dreams'. I live on Hollywood Boulevard and I see it every day. But I still see the hope in those dreams too. It's the dreams that help us wake up in the morning.
I enjoyed that little flashback with Cliff and his wife on the boat and him holding that speargun pointed generally at his wife while she berates him over who knows what. I think the hint was that he did kill her, but that is no fully explained.
Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose is on that list for me along with the terrific ones you've chosen. I still get a reminder of it whenever the subject of Auto-Erotic Asphyxiation comes up.
You're right about the soul crushing aspect of all these superhero movie franchises. I myself don't go to movies anymore. But as I mention the Fellini 8 1/2 pov I'd like to point out that Fellini went on to evolve into a different filmmaker. It was a turning point for him, and perhaps one for QT.
I was frankly very turned off by the level of violence he reached with Kill Bill Part 1. I think that was a turning point too.
I don't think all women were portrayed as annoying. It just so happened that the Manson Family had a large number of women who were more than a bit unhinged. Even years later some continued to attempt murder. Twice they tried to kill Gerald Ford.
Everything you've written is fair and my impression is a bit different as to what this film was about. This may sound crazy, but I think this film was about QT himself and his place in the Hollywood lore. It's a Meta Hollywood story. It's about aging and losing some of ones shine and stardom as the next generation moves in and takes there place. Look at some of the cutaway clips Rick Dalton's past stories and compare them to QT's filmography.
This ends up to me to be his own version of what Fellini did with '8-1/2'. Notice how the poster notes this is his 9th movie?
