The production team for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood transformed Tinseltown back to the landscape of the late 1960s, thanks to retro facelifts across Hollywood Boulevard and Westwood Village, but it wasn’t all easy.
As stated in IndieWire, it was a challenge for Tarantino to convince the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to let him restore parts of Hollywood Boulevard, but using his passion for Hollywood and showcasing how he wanted to mirror the things that made the city famous at that moment of time, he managed to get the restoration going.
The restoration included bygone cultural fixtures such as the Pussycat Theatre, the psychedelic Aquarius Theatre, and Peaches Records & Tapes. With the Pussycat Theatre recreation, the team took the entire facade, rebuilt it, piece by piece, with cranes, and put it back up with the neon sign.
But the hardest makeover was, in fact, creating an original Taco Bell. Apparently, the location team managed to find a place down south where a guy had closed a restaurant and was able to tear it down to open a new restaurant, and instead, he let the crew renovate it back to an original looking Taco Bell, with its original signage and Taco Bell man.
The efforts certainly reflected in the surreal flashback of 1969 LA in the film!
