With an all star cast and an amazing director, I was surprised at how slowly this movie progressed. It is an homage to the ending of an era in Hollywood, and a re imagining of what could have been had Manson been stopped. Maybe it was a brief glimpse, a dream, and Tarantino wrote it up and pitched the idea and now we have this slow, dredge of a film that somehow won awards and fooled people into spending money on (present company included). It wasn't the worst film ever, but coming from Tarantino I expected way more and was delivered way less.
