There's nothing shameless in a chaotic world - "Inglourious Basterds"

The first little detail I noticed was in the first scene, when the farmer's daughter was drying the white sheets, she vaguely heard the sound of a motorcycle, then lifted the white sheets, and the tune of "To Alice" sounded, The image behind the sheet suddenly focused, as if the white sheet was the curtain for a scene that had just begun, and the whole absurd and disordered story began like this.

Although Cannes actor Christoph Waltz played the Nazi officer BT, I still say that Pitt is too suitable for such a crazy role, whether it is the lunatic in "Twelve Monkeys", or the accent this time. The arrogant but stupid guerrilla captain, the more insane he is, the better his performance will be. So much so that in the end, when he engraved the Nazi logo on the actor's head and said, "I think this is my masterpiece," I laughed a little bit out of breath.

The first chapter was supposed to be heavy, and the tense confrontation turned completely into Quentin Tarantino's noir slapstick when Christoph Waltz's Nazi officer pulled out an enormous pipe. Maybe a little bit sickened at first by the bloody, explicit killing images, but when you realize this is Quentin Tarantino, it all starts to feel natural. This is a historical movie about movies and only about movies. You can see that the British officer who was a movie critic started talking about German movies to Churchill as soon as he appeared, although I thought he was handsome at first. In the crappy German in the tavern and the melee that revealed her identity as soon as she raised her finger was blasted [beep] egg, oh yes, there is also a German actress who is a double agent. BTW, that melee was really typical Quentin Tarantino, bloody and funny, it was dead but it made you feel happy. The climax of the conflict also took place in the cinema. The 35mm flammable film film has also become a more powerful attack weapon than a bomb. At the beginning of the fifth chapter, Sosanna dressed in red dresses herself under the singing of David Bowie. Loading a small-caliber pistol and preparing every step of the way for my revenge plan is one of the most beautiful moments in the movie, so much so that I revisited David Bowie's album and revisited the mesmerizing 78 1990s rock music.

There is no doubt that this is a crazy historical farce. You can think of it as a World War II story of a group of bad people in a parallel universe, or you can regard it as the ending of World War II completed in the mind of Quentin, a crazy person, who seems to be a good gentleman. The Nazi fighting hero (that is, the little brother in "Goodbye Lenin") also exposed his violent nature at the end, and died in the movie screening room with Sosanna. The exquisite slow motion and poignant soundtrack made the movie There is also a very beautiful feeling of sadness, which makes me have the urge to cry. Quentin is a genius. He dissolves too many complicated factors into the same movie without the slightest sense of disobedience. My favorite moment of all was when Sosana's vengeful face was projected on the big screen with raging flames burning all the nazis to death in the cinema while the two basterds posing as Italians were still there Keep strafing until the bomb turns it all into ashes. There are so many things that fascinate me about using movies to kill people in this movie about movies, and even catch up with the kind of fun that "Pulp Fiction" brought me.

The most important thing about directors like Quentin Tarantino or Guy Ritchie is their preference for chaos or chaos, but in this chaos there is an unexpected and [beep] beauty , although this beauty is mixed with blood and violence not everyone can appreciate, but for me, this beauty is unusually profound and unforgettable. In this disorder and chaos, revealed the truth of life, chaotic history, contradictory feelings, absurd facts, endless lies, and shameless bastards. So, let's go crazy together, let's revel together, disorder is the truth, and there is nothing shameless in a chaotic world.

BTW, both words in English movie titles are intentionally misspelled, Quentin Tarantino just likes to play people.

    The most beautiful moment in this article is the moment when Susanna and the German soldiers killed each other. It's so beautiful, especially the soundtrack! The melody of ennio morricone-un amico that makes people want to fall in love is so beautiful, with the bloody picture, a perfect match!

    Joking about World War II. Violent aesthetics, more than black, lack of humor. The soundtrack is appropriate. Christoph Waltz's acting skills are undoubtedly too brilliant! "When the French don't care about love, the Americans don't talk about human rights, the Germans don't talk about principles, the British are confused, and the Jews are killing them, Hitler died."

Inglourious Basterds quotes

  • Col. Hans Landa: Mir scheint, da fehlt jemand. Jemand fäschionäbles.

  • Col. Hans Landa: [to Aldo] So you're "Aldo the Apache".

    Lt. Aldo Raine: So you're "the Jew Hunter".

    Col. Hans Landa: A detective. A damn good dectective. Finding people is my specialty so naturally I work for the Nazis finding people, and yes some of them were Jews. But "Jew Hunter"?

    Col. Hans Landa: [reacts in disgust] It's just a name that stuck.

    Pfc. Smithson Utivich: Well, you do have to admit, it is catchy.

    Col. Hans Landa: Do you control the nicknames your enemies bestow on you? "Aldo the Apache" and "the Little Man"?

    Pfc. Smithson Utivich: [confused] What do you mean "the Little Man"?

    Col. Hans Landa: Germans' nickname for you.

    Pfc. Smithson Utivich: The Germans' nickname for me is "the Little Man"?

    Col. Hans Landa: And as if to make my point, I'm a little surprised how tall you were in real life. I mean, you're a little fellow, but not circus-midget little, as your reputation would suggest.
