I really love this movie. There's a few movies out there that just have a particular vibe that I'm into and this is one of them. The Big Lebowski and Inherent Vice are a couple of others. Maybe it's a lost California aesthetic that appeals to me.

Right. It feels like an homage to old Hollywood (and hell, maybe even pre-murder porn culture if you wanna go down that rabbit hole) more than anything else.

I would bet that the people who didn't enjoy it were probably unfamiliar with the Manson murders. Someone on this site put it best - that backstory sets this unspoken tension for the whole film.
