Los Angeles, 1969. Rick Dalton, once the star of Western series and now a fading actor, and Cliff Booth, his faithful stunt double and best friend, try to stay afloat in an industry shifting beneath their feet. While Rick grapples with his decline, his neighbor is the young and luminous actress Sharon Tate, newly married to director Roman Polanski, in a city breathing the end of an era. Tarantino composes a nostalgic and melancholy love letter to the twilight Hollywood of the sixties, amid humor, tenderness and the latent shadow of a violence that hovers over the tale.
