Quentin Tarantino

Hollywoodin kauhukakaran esikoisromaani sukeltaa Oscar-palkitun elokuvan maailmaan. Vuoden 1969 Los Angelesissa näyttelijä Rick Dalton ja hänen sijaisnäyttelijänsä ja ainoa ystävänsä Cliff Booth yrittävät pysyä mukana elokuva-alan mullistuksissa. Tarantinon teksti rullaa kuin klassikko-Cadillac hänen kuljettaessaan parivaljakkoa halki Hollywoodin kultakauden viimeisten hetkien. Matkan varrelle osuu kavalkadi menestyneempiä kollegoita ja toinen toistaan häiriintyneempiä hippejä."Once Upon a Time in Hollywood on elokuva, johon haluaa jäädä asumaan." - Helsingin Sanomat

Rick Dalton - En gång i tiden hade han en egen tv-serie. Nu får han mest roller som bad guy i B-filmer. På kvällarna dränker den avdankade stjärnan sina sorger i whiskey sour. Kan ett oväntat telefonsamtal ändra hans öde? Cliff Booth - Ricks stuntman och dubbelgångare. Lika framgångsrik som ökänd i filmindustrin på grund av ryktena om att han kommit undan med mord. Sharon Tate - Skådespelerskan som flyttade från Texas för att bli filmstjärna och lyckades. Nu lever hon livet hon alltid drömt om. Charles Manson - Kåkfararen och ledaren för ett gäng hippies som tror att han är Frälsaren. Utan att tveka skulle han byta ut allt mot livet som rockstjärna. Hollywood 1969 - Du skulle ha varit där... QUENTIN TARANTINO är en av de mest kända filmregissörerna idag. Hans första film, De hänsynslösa, hade premiär 1992. Efter det har han regisserat flera omtalade och framgångsrika filmer som Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown och Kill Bill. Nu kommer äntligen hans första roman som bygger på samma karaktärer som i filmen Once upon a time in Hollywood. Boken, som toppat New York Times försäljningslista, har blivit översatt till över 30 språk. "Det här var roligt att läsa jag tycker man ska läsa den här." - Titti Schultz, Go Kväll "Bitvis fenomenal." - Sebastian Lindvall, Dagens Nyheter "En debutroman, som sömlöst blandar fakta med fiktion, inspirerad av sextiotalets filmindustri och Manson-morden." - The Times "Tarantino har svart bälte i provokation ... Hans omättliga entusiasm för popkultur är både smittsam och spännande." - The Guardian "Det slår gnistor om Tarantino." - The New York Times

Eesti lugejani jõuab meie aja ühe hinnatuima filmilavastaja Quentin Tarantino debüütromaan. See põhineb tema samanimelisel mängufilmil, kus peaosi kehastasid Leonardo DiCaprio ja Brad Pitt, ja mis kandideeris 2020. aastal parima filmi Oscarile.Tarantino armastusega kirjutatud austusavaldus kuuekümnendate lõpu Hollywoodile on nostalgiline pilguheit vesternikino telgitagustesse ja filmiajalukku üldisemalt, kuid toob meie ette ka hipilikust vabaarmastusest haaratud Los Angelese süngema poole. See Kuldgloobusega auhinnatud stsenaariumil põhinev raamat sisaldab väga palju uut materjali, mis filmi ei jõudnud, avades tegelaste eluloolist tausta ja selgitades nendevahelisi suhteid palju põhjalikumalt, kui Tarantinol selleks kinolinal mahti oli. Fiktiivsete peakangelaste kõrval astuvad lugeja ette ka paljud ajaloolised figuurid, nagu Sharon Tate, Roman Polanski, Steve McQueen, Bruce Lee ja mitte viimases järjekorras ka rokkstaariks saada unistav poolsegane kultuseliider Charlie Manson.

From the foreword by Quentin Tarantino:"One of the reasons Michael's work has such meaning for me is he's writing about feelings and emotions that it seems at times the last few generations have become blind to. Some of Michael's work is about family remembrances. A moment he saw his mother wrap her arms around his father's waist, or how his sister looked in one dress in particular. Some of them are thought jazz. Some are the best recordings of the gypsy life of a movie actor I've ever read. Michael stuck on some location, on some crappy movie, bored out of his mind with too much time on his hands and not enough per diem is Michael at his funniest. But for me, the real journey that Michael the writer is exploring is what it means to be a man in a world where the notions of manhood that some of us grew up with are barely remembered. But then if everybody embarked on the hero's journey, everybody would be a hero, wouldn't they?"Tears For My Father: Outlaw Thoughts & Poems explores not only Madsen's remarkable life and experiences in and out of Hollywood, but also his familial influences that have participated in crafting and shaping him, including thoughts on his father; his mother and the rumor that he was born without a left hand; ghosts, whiskey, and payback; Robert Mitchum, James Cagney, and "sensitive sons of bitches"; the mentality of actors and growing up to be a man; his first audition; drunken behavior; epic drinkers; and much, much more.
