“Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood” is available online for a pittance of twenty bucks. Here’s the opening title sequence.
The Hullabaloo bit is on screen for only a few seconds in the movie. For me, the complete sequence in the extended edition is by itself worth the purchase price.
“Ford v. Ferrari” is my second favorite buddy movie this year with two superstars that’s set in 1960’s Los Angeles. Well, mostly in L.A., as the last third is the 1966 Le Mans Grand Prix in France.
With the Millennial generation bringing with it the sudden death of America’s car culture, “Ford v. Ferrari” proves it’s still possible to enjoy the roar of an internal combustion engine and the screech of tires. Especially in IMAX, and without it being the fantasy of “The Fast and the Furious”. Oh, for the days before pollution controls, when leaded gas cost pennies per gallon!
What’s my favorite buddy movie this year — or any year — with two superstars set in 1960’s Los Angeles? Heck, it’s one of my favorite movies period.
