Quentin Tarantino in

Filmmaker Quentin Tarantino doesn’t hide the fact that classic movies and television, such as Gunsmoke, greatly inspired his work. In fact, he regularly places Easter eggs and other hat tips throughout much of his filmography. Gunsmoke heavily inspired a perfect scene from Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood that continues to stick with many fans who knew what he was pointing to.

Tarantino created a “hangout” movie with Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which is a film that places heavy emphasis on the characters. Therefore, audiences are given the opportunity to spend time with them, rather than focusing on a traditional plot structure. Additionally, Tarantino brought powerhouses Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, and Margot Robbie in for this old Hollywood adventure.
