TV Tonight: Once Upon A Time In Hollywood

theversion.co FilmFour is showing the brilliant Tarrentino film, tonight at 11.25pm.

This darkly comedic drama from Quentin Tarantino, serving as both a love letter to 1960s Los Angeles and an imaginative chronicle of the lead-up to the Manson Family murders in the summer of 1969. The all-star cast includes Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie and Al Pacino. Actor Rick Dalton's (DiCaprio) star is fading fast. In the 50s, he was a huge TV star. But now the 70s are approaching and his roles are limited to gaudy cameos. He spends his days being ferried around by best friend and stunt double Cliff Booth (Pitt) to attend frustrating meetings with his agent Marvin (Pacino).

Rick sees an opportunity to get himself back into the big time when director Roman Polanski (Rafal Zawierucha) and his wife, superstar actress Sharon Tate (Robbie), move next door, and he sets out to befriend the couple. Meanwhile, worlds start to collide as Booth picks up a female hitchhiker and takes her to a ranch where the Manson Family are based. In the swirling whirligig of a changing Hollywood, the days are getting longer, drugs are getting stronger, and not everyone will make it out alive. Also starring Damian Lewis, Dakota Fanning, Margaret Qualley, Austin Butler and Kurt Russell.

Catch up on Channel 4.
