In terms of characters, the most interesting thing is Quentin's white eyebrows. I feel that he should like watching Hong Kong kung fu movies very much. Bai Mei's appearance is typical of Hong Kong's martial arts films in the 1960s and 1970s, and she also designed Cantonese dialogue for Bai Mei. The skill Baimei taught Kiddo is that she can survive the revenge process and end up putting Bill and the dead at the end. The ending designed for him is to die from Elle's poison, which is in line with the saying that it is easy to hide with a clear gun, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow. Bai Mei has a signature action to touch the gray beard from top to bottom and then toss it hard. The difference between happiness and anger is the severity of the toss. Quentin's understanding of the Chinese sages may have started from this action.
The most interesting part of the story is Face to Face in the last chapter. When Kiddo rushed into Bill's room with a snatch, what she saw turned out to be the daughter who was with Bill and missed day and night. Suddenly, the murderous intent was covered up by family affection, and the motherhood of watching her daughter was awakened. I have to admit that Quentin arranged the film well. The original evil station was just like that. The next question worth discussing is what happened between them? A powerful potion from Bill forces Kiddo to tell the truth. Why leave with a baby. In fact, this matter could have been resolved satisfactorily. But the killer's nature allows Bill and Kiddo to complicate a simple thing. There is a very classic dialogue. Bill used Superman as an analogy when interrogating Kiddo. The essence of Superman is still Superman, and he dresses up as an ordinary person just to integrate into society. Kiddo is the same, but it will never change her essence.
Watching Quentin's films feel very rich and delicate. You can see a lot of deja vu, but they are all improved by him into his works. The refined connotation is enough to compare with the novel, and you can see a lot of the director's preferences in a movie. It feels like you're pinching together colorful plasticine. A new genre can only be formed without paying attention to rules and regulations.
