PODCAST | Chiara Nicoletti interviews Margot Robbie, actress of the film Once Upon a Time in…Hollywood.

Margot Robbie is the leading lady of Quentin Tarantino’s 10th film Once Upon a Time in…Hollywood. In Rome to present the film to the Italian audience along with the director and co-protagonist Leonardo DiCaprio, the actress reveals some behind-the-scene anecdotes, in particular, the directions she was given in the cinema scene, where her character, Sharon Tate, goes to watch her own film to the movie theatre. The film’ screening was The Wrecking Crew and as Tarantino himself had some personal memories about the first time he watched that film, he put everything in the script and in the film.

Once Upon a Time in…Hollywood: Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in…Hollywood visits 1969 Los Angeles, where everything is changing, as TV star Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio) and his longtime stunt double Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt) make their way around an industry they hardly recognize anymore. The ninth film from the writer-director features a large ensemble cast and multiple storylines in a tribute to the final moments of Hollywood’s golden age.
