One more person is singing Quentin Tarantino’s praises for the final scene of “Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood”: former Manson Family member Dianne Lake.

“I thought the ending was very clever,” Lake said in a review of the film in The Daily Beast on Friday.

The climactic scene is a reimagined take on the 1969 murder of pregnant actress Sharon Tate and four other people at the hands of Charles Manson disciples — who all meet very different fates to what really happened.

Vincent Bugliosi, author of “Helter Skelter: The True Story of the Manson Murders” and prosecutor in the 1970 trial of Charles Manson, said the horses were “the main business” of the ranch.

Once upon a time in Hollywood, a songwriter cut some demos. New documentary Manson: Music from an Unsound Mind gives a listen.

"My life is yours, and you can have my world," the Beach Boys sang in the song "Never Learn Not to Love." Mostly written by Charles Manson, that world was a far different kind of hallucination than the band surfed when they were dispensing "Good Vibrations." Credited songwriter Dennis Wilson changed a good portion of the lyrics and wrote a bridge so it could be issued as a B-side and paid the struggling the songwriter. The musical side of the man who killed the sixties will be explored in the upcoming documentary Manson: Music From An Unsound Mind.

The documentary was written and directed by Tom O’Dell. “I first found out about Manson’s musical ambitions back in 2007, while producing a Byrds documentary,” O’Dell said in a statement.
