How Quentin Tarantino, Charlie Kaufman, and the Safdies Twist Real Life (And You Can Too)
How to write fiction based on true events ►► https://bit.ly/2Vzlckw
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood marks the latest example of Quentin Tarantino taking real-life events and creating a brand new history. In Uncut Gems, the Safdie Brothers also crafted a fictional story around Kevin Garnett and actual NBA playoff games. Charlie Kaufman was meant to adapt a book but failed — and he responded by fictionalizing himself in the process in Adaptation.
What these true story movies have in common is a willingness to bend or even break the truth. In this rather radical approach to screenwriting, real-life and true stories become like potter’s clay in the hands of audacious auteurs like Tarantino, Josh and Benny Safdie, and Charlie Kaufman. The Once Upon a Time in Hollywood ending would have been much different had Tarantino stuck to real life.
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood stars Margot Robbie as real-life actress Sharon Tate, who was brutally murdered by Charles Manson’s psychotic loyalists. Thanks to fictional characters like Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt), things didn’t quite turn out that way. In Uncut Gems, Adam Sandler stars alongside Kevin Garnett in a semi-fictional, semi-true thriller, ingeniously crafted by the Safdie Brothers. Adaptation stars Nicolas Cage as the real Charlie Kaufman...and his fictional twin brother Donald.
Screenwriters take note — the truth is excellent material and you don’t always have to stay true to real life. True stories are almost always augmented with fictional elements — but it takes bold choices like Tarantino, the Safdies, and Charlie Kaufman to create truly original and thrilling fictions based on true stories.
