Tarantino's most unique and emotional masterpiece
Los Angeles, 1969. The film capital of half a century ago is now coming to life under the bright sunlight. Quentin Tarantino's ninth directorial film is clearly a reference to Sergio Leone's Once Upon a Time series from the title, but it also depicts conflicts between roughnecks and the mafia. It's not the kind of movie that drags on and on.
He has continued to fuse and develop the film knowledge he has accumulated in his brain using Copernican ideas, and has delighted and astonished people time and time again. This time, it took me five years to write it, and I have poured so much of my feelings towards this city and the movies into it, and it has culminated in a picture scroll that is more original than ever before and can only be described as ``Tarantino-esque.'' I'm letting you do it.

What's more, the producer this time around is David Heyman, who is known for his work on the `` Harry Potter '' (01-11) series, `` Paddington '' (14), and `` Gravity '' (13), which is surprising. He freely praises it as ``the most unique and emotional work of all Quentin's works,'' and there is something divine about this film that touches the hearts of all movie lovers. You can almost feel the power.
It changes shape at will over the course of 2 hours and 41 minutes, sometimes making you laugh, and sometimes making your heart tremble. On the other hand, since it is impossible to predict what will happen next, it is true that a faint alarm sound continues to echo in the back of my mind throughout the movie. Where on earth will we be taken as we climb into the back seat? I wonder how we will leave our seats at the end of this movie.
