<p><strong>Featuring never-before-seen photos from the set and posters and other memorabilia from Rick Dalton’s career, an original, exclusive script for a <em>Bounty Law</em> episode by Quentin Tarantino titled “Incident at Inez” and a <em>Mad Magazine</em> parody of <em>Bounty Law</em> titled “Lousy Law: Loser’s Last Ride”</strong></p><p><strong>Quentin Tarantino’s long-awaited first work of fiction—at once hilarious, delicious, and brutal—is the always surprising, sometimes shocking new novel based on his Academy Award- winning film.</strong></p><p>The sunlit studio back lots and the dark watering holes of Hollywood are the setting for this audacious, hilarious, disturbing novel about life in the movie colony, circa 1969.</p><p><em>Once Upon a Time in Hollywood</em> tells the story of washed-up actor Rick Dalton. Once Rick had his own television series, a famous western called <em>Bounty Law.</em> But “it ain’t been that<em> time</em> in a long <em>time</em>” and now Rick’s only regular parts are as the heavy, ready to be bested by whichever young “swingin’ dick” the networks want to make a new star out of come pilot season. When a talent agent approaches Rick about starring in Italian Westerns (“<em>Eye</em>-talian Westerns”?), it only ignites a new crisis of confidence for the perpetually insecure actor.</p><p>And then there’s Rick’s stunt double, Cliff Booth, a war hero who killed more Japanese soldiers during the Second World War than any other American, and who never thought he’d make it back home. If Rick’s career has stalled, Cliff’s has flamed out. Already living under a cloud of suspicion after the strange death of his wife at sea, Cliff makes the mistake of picking the wrong fight on set, and is soon reduced to the status of Rick’s full-time gofer.</p><p>Right next door to Rick’s still glamourous Benedict Canyon home (“the house that <em>Bounty Law</em> built”) some Hollywood dreams <em>are </em>coming true, and these dreams belong to Sharon Tate.
