A story that takes place in Los Angeles in 1969, at the height of hippy Hollywood. The two lead characters are Rick Dalton, former star of a western TV series, and his longtime stunt double Cliff Booth. Both are struggling to make it in a Hollywood they don’t recognize anymore. But Rick has a new next-door neighbor, who may be a rising star…Sharon Tate.

Sony and Best Buy have collaborated on a store exclusive SteelBook release for Director Quentin Tarantino's ninth film, 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.' The disc and digital content is identical to that found in the wide release. See the 'Special Features and Extras' section of the review below for more on the SteelBook's look and feel.

The front panel features a creamy colored border housing several distinct, but flowing, images. The film's title appears at the top, the first few words in
neon yellow sitting atop the Hollywood sign in its famously staggered type. Below is an image of Dalton, at an angular action pose, holding a shotgun in
his right hand. Below is Booth, cooly sitting in a car, sunglasses on. Tate stands below, looking towards the camera, head slightly tilted, in front of a
dusk Hollywood backdrop. Each actor's name (Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie) and the characters they play appear next to the respective
images. The actor names are in colorful script while the character names appear in big, bold, and bright neon letters (yellow, pink, and blue from top to
bottom).
The rear image is similar in layout but depicts a single character, the dog Brandy. It's a large image with the character's name (and the dog's name
that plays it) appearing at the top. The animal is sitting in front of a dusk Hollywood setting. The front and rear panels are firmly textured rather than
slick and
glossy and will not show fingerprints. The spine carries over the cream color. The film's title appears slightly off center, the first words in black and
"Hollywood" in pink. A Sony Pictures logo has been placed at the bottom.
Inside, the digital copy code is tucked underneath the left-hand-side tabs. The two discs, one UHD and one Blu-ray, are situated on the right in
staggered-stacked formation. The inner print is a two-panel spread that features that now familiar dusk Hollywood scene spread across right and left. In
neon script is the writing "The 9th Film From Quentin Tarantino."

This is a nice SteelBook. It's fairly unique, the artwork is strong, and the feel is just right. The movie is terrific and the UHD presentation is first-rate. Highly recommended.
