Quentin's imagination is comparable to that of Chinese netizens

"Inglourious Basterds" really can't read without subtitles. French and German are mixed with Tennessee-flavored English and English-flavored Italian. The huge subtitles give me a headache. I understand the sentence at the end of the film. Uncle Pete smiled proudly at the camera: "I think this is my amazing masterpiece." Uncle Quentin, what do you think?

In fact, due to cultural differences, not everyone can understand this film, especially foreigners like us. If you imagine, Uncle Pete used Sichuan-flavored Mandarin to lecture, and when he met Hans, he spoke Zhao Lirong's London Country English. When Hans met the French in the first scene, he didn't take out a huge pipe but, for example, The huge lighter, do you think the scene is a lot more vivid? Let's play with our imagination again. They assassinated not Hitler but the Eight-Power Allied Forces. The name of "Inglourious Basterds" was changed to "Boxer", and Uncle Peter changed his name to Yanzi Wangwu. What did we see? By the way, it is the online YY trend that netizens have set off in the past ten years, such as "Zhiming" or "Empire of China" and other online YY novels.

So, as a foreigner, we have to watch this movie immersively. The beauty of Quentin's films lies in that he can think what other directors dare not think, such as letting King Swallow assassinate Klinger or Okamura Ningji succeed; he can also do what other directors dare not do, such as drawing an arrow to tell the audience , this is a high-ranking Nazi official, you pay attention. It's so pitiful that I actually watched it as a full-length movie at first, hoping that there would be an epic ending in the end, such as the beautiful and noble actress, the beautiful and noble Jewish woman, and the shameless bastard. I was still thinking why Hitler was portrayed in such a comedy; at the end I realized that Quentin played us all. The sieve-like bullet holes in Hitler's face and the rage in the Jewish girl's face were like telling the audience to the audience. : This is not a WWII movie! This is a manga movie that only appeared in my imagination! You guys also played with me for two and a half hours! Ha ha!

I can imagine Quentin's face, but like other audiences and film critics here in the United States, he played with him for more than two hours, and he was emotional and refused to leave the screen. Compared with his previous films, the conception of the 5 Chapters is considered logical and complete in structure. It is a good container for unrestrained imagination. No wonder Quentin is so confident at the end.

    Love Quentin. It's just that when a few pieces of music sounded, I wanted to cry. Ennio Morricone really is my cup of tea.

    Look at the beginning again: how a German officer broke a big man in ten minutes.

Inglourious Basterds quotes

  • 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.

  • Lt. Aldo Raine: You know, where I'm from...

    Col. Hans Landa: Yeah, where is that, exactly?

    Lt. Aldo Raine: Maynardville, Tennessee.

    [pause]

    Lt. Aldo Raine: I've done my share of bootlegging. Up 'ere, if you engage in what the federal government calls 'illegal activity,' but what we call 'just a man tryin' to make a livin' for his family sellin' moonshine liquor,' it behooves oneself to keep his wits. Long story short, we hear a story too good to be true... it ain't.

    Col. Hans Landa: Sitting in your chair, I would probably say the same thing. And 999 point 999 times out of a million, you would be correct. But in the pages of history, every once in a while, fate reaches out and extends its hand.

    [Landa slowly sweeps his arms out in a grand shrug]

    Col. Hans Landa: What shall the history books read?
