I was absolutely not expecting it to be a love letter to Sharon Tate nor was I expecting to be so moved at the end of the film. I was 16 years old the summer of '69 and remember this like it were yesterday. It's a whole lot more than just a nostalgia piece. I have to see it again to absorb more of the due diligence that was invested in all the small details of the period. That's how good it is. The emotional wallop at the end still has me reeling. Go see for yourself.
