Once Upon a Time in Hollywood runs close to 3 hours and somehow makes every minute feel like hanging out in a sun soaked 1969 dream. It is less about plot than living with Rick, Cliff & Sharon until the city itself starts to feel like the main character
@CinemaTweets1 Between the book Deliver Me From Nowhere & his autobiography, it’s about as faithful as possible to the source material while making it palatable as a 2 hour film a general audience could see. Sounds like maybe you expected more of A Complete Unknown’s biopic style.
If at all possible to provide any stories or perspective from that process, it would greatly enhance the program. It is easily the most engulfing use of Springsteen’s music in a TV series ever. Thank you either way, I remain a great admirer of your work over the years.
@AoDespair I’m presenting as part of the Bruce Springsteen Archives for American Music’s 50th celebration of Born to Run in Sept. in NJ, authoring/discussing a paper on his influence on US cinema & TV. Appreciate any insight you could offer on use of his music in Show Me A Hero.
This remains his first & only appearance in a fictional film, if at all possible to contribute unique memories from that experience, it would greatly enhance the program. Thank you either way, recently revisited your & Paul Dano’s tremendous work in Love & Mercy

Last night, I had the opportunity to surprise my brother, @DannyDeVito, and be there to help present him with the Robards Award for Excellence in Theatre at @roundaboutnyc.
It didn’t matter that I filmed all day and had to throw on a jacket and hustle on stage. I had to be there, because he deserves to be celebrated.
Be there for your friends and family.
I was privileged to know Gene Hackman because he played tennis with another Gene—Gene Wilder. And that Gene told him about a little role called The Blind Hermit in our movie YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN. He said, “Do you think Mel would let me play it? I’ve always wanted to do a comedy.” Needless to say, I was over the moon and he was perfect.
