Tarantino has a field day
with this love letter to
movie-making in 60s

a heady mix of splatter
and period detail – the
backdrop is the killercult of Charles Manson,

Pitt, spark off each other
to hilarious effect.

Isy delves into her own

‘Make sure you tell her as
many times as she needs to
hear it that she does not have
brain cancer.’ Milo’s like, ‘Got
it, dude.’ Making this film, I’m
reminded every day coming to
work that I’ve got it good.You’ve been acting for a long
time – is it what you always
wanted to do?
For sure. Of course, I wanted
to be a ballerina at age five
and a meteorologist at 10, but
there was a point of no return
when I was like, ‘This is it.
There’s nothing else I want
to do.’ I’m very lucky.● The Art Of Racing In The
