It's alright Denis... It's just that I knew practically nothing of these events (which predate my birth in another country - I know polanski but from the sex scandal), so I was wondering if I was missing on some cultural lore that might clarify this entire movie for me. The first 80% seemed pretty historically accurate, I was wondering why he changed who gets murdered at the end (hopefully Spoilers were established), if it is seen by viewers as some sort of homage or if it's a little messed up and disrespectful?
it seemed like an incredibly long build up about Dicaprio/Pitt story to go about pivoting at the end from the failed actor story to "saving Sharon Tate". And also since I wikipedia'd it, kinda disrespectful - as I understand she really was pregnant when gruesomely murdered - yet nobody seemed bothered by this alternate ending... It's just a really strange (though entertaining) movie so I was wondering if I was missing something cultural/historical, or if someone knew what Tarentino was aiming at exactly... No biggie... I'll go watch the art of racing in the rain next, that was a good book and i'm pretty sure I'll understand that ;-)
