Sure 'Once Upon a Time' is a fairy tale, which are built to convey moral messages for kids. Here, the moral seems to be “who doesn’t miss the good old days when cars had fins & white men were the heroes of everything?” A show of hands? From marymacTV:
I have seen a lot of “Who would win in a fight?” lists, from the classic — Batman versus Superman — to the current — Nancy Pelosi versus Kellyanne Conway — but I can safely say none included Butch and Sundance versus Tex Watson and the Manson girls.In “Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood,” Rick Dalton and his stuntman Cliff Booth are not real cowboys, but they play them in the movies.
Nostalgia is fun, and fine when used recreationally; but it’s time to face the dangers of our national addiction to reveling in visions of the past that are, at best, emotionally curated by a select few and, at worst, complete nonsense. Unless you were a member of the white, male, Christian, heterosexual, able-bodied, culturally conforming, non-addicted, mentally well, moneyed elite, there was literally no time in history that was simpler, better, easier, or greater. For most people, history is the story of original oppression gradually lessened through a series of struggles and setbacks.
Except, of course, it doesn’t. Not content with romanticizing history, Tarantino, as he has before, rewrites it.Rick and Cliff do not become simply two of millions in a city terrorized by the Manson murders. They become good old-fashioned heroes; Cliff grins in the face of the real-life bogeyman before siccing his dog on them.
