24. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood – For the Times They Are a-Changin’

Rick Dalton has reached his peak, and it’s all downhill from here. Nobody cares that he was a part of a #1 serialized western. That’s old news. Now he’s just an extra, a star that’s bounced around shows to bring in viewers and grow the ego of new, younger stars. He knows it’s not long until he’s nothing but an old memory in the minds of the world, and that terrifies him.

Tune in Wednesday nights for new episodes of Cinematic Doctrine!

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is Rated R for language throughout, some strong graphic violence, drug use, and sexual references.

It features Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie, and Margaret Qualley.

Directed by Quentin Tarantino.

Hey Melvin,

Love what you do here, it was so crazy to find another brother in Christ who filters his reviews through the Christian worldview! Would love to talk movies sometime!

Thank you, Carter

  Hey Carter! Thanks so much for reaching out! Glad to hear I could bring you some joy with my reviews/podcast! If you’d like to chat, feel free to join the Cinematic Doctrine Facebook Group (Should show up in the search results on Facebook. Not so sure I can link it here without WP thinking I’m spamming my own site lol) or shoot me an email to CinematicDoctrine@gmail.com! I check the email pretty often!
  
  But, if you’re looking for other like-minded Christians to talk movies, I highly recommend checking out the FB group. We’re pretty active there, and if you check out some other segments on CinDoc (like Trailer Talk or Monthly Movie News) you’ll probably get to meet Dan!
  
  Bahh, what the heck, I’ll take my chances! Hopefully WP doesn’t stop me from posting this comment lol. Here’s a link to the FB group!
