Brad Pitt is putting on Cliff Booth’s cool smile again, but this time, one of Hollywood’s boldest directors is taking control of the story.The Adventures of Cliff Booth brings back Pitt’s unforgettable stuntman from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Quentin Tarantino wrote the screenplay, while David Fincher directs.
