Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

He is Hollywood’s box-office cure-all. Every movie he stars in sparks a global rush to the theaters, and studios gladly spend a fortune to get him.

He is the directors’ muse. His distinctive style and masterful interpretations of his roles have made him a regular during awards season and prompted countless renowned directors to compete for the chance to work with him.

Defiant and unconventional, he once clashed over musical vision with the Rolling Stones’ lead singer backstage at the Golden Globes. He also stood his ground against Hollywood’s giant studios to defend the purity of artistic creation.

His list of rumored romances includes several of Hollywood’s biggest actresses. They are captivated by his talent and exasperated by his stubbornness, yet all agree that he is Hollywood’s most dazzling “contradiction.”

As Hollywood’s stars gradually dimmed and a new generation emerged, unable to hide its restlessness, people finally realized that he was the last Hollywood superstar to carry the glory of the Golden Age forward while creating a legend of his own.

Hollywood has fallen into decline. This is a tale of Hollywood’s past.
