12. I saw it Saturday, and I really, really liked it. Anyone who was around at that time, or is familiar

with the events of the time, will find plenty of familiar ground. There were plenty of Tarentino plants and associations that I got, but I know I'm not "insider" enough to have caught all of them. I'll surely watch it again.

I think the Sharon Tate character development was done to show that, what you see, is actually a reflection of how she actually was, way down within herself. Not shallow, but genuine. Or, that's how Tarentino wants her to be perceived. If that makes any sense.

Do you know that Paul Revere and the Raiders' "Good Thing" is written by Mark Lindsey and Terry Melcher, and they both lived in the Cielo Drive house?
