Quentin, the shameless bastard, finally can't hide

The title is the most direct and simple finishing touch of a movie. The most superficial understanding is of course the name of the 8-member team-Inglourious bastards. They killed the Nazis for revenge. They not only beat them to death with bats, but also took knives. Cut off the scalp of the enemy, look like a Seediq Bale behind the German army, and finally engrave the Nazi swastika on the mouth of the living, so that they will never be born with the mark of shame. Live like an outrageous bastard.

On closer inspection, it seems to be trying to say that war has turned each of us into bastards. The murderer turned out to be a brewer, the British captain turned out to be a film critic, and even Goebbels turned out to be a doctor and an ordinary clerk, but the war turned him into a shameless and filthy demon-like propaganda machine. Ordinary people kill each other and become shameless bastards.

Then I finally figured out that Inglourious Basterds was actually Quentin, the director and screenwriter.

He just wanted to make an anti-justice Nazi-killing 300 Allied movie, but it didn't conform to the values ​​of justice, so he gave it a Nazi-killing shell. It's reasonable for the Nazis to not be banned. He just wanted to abuse girls, so he let the double agent be interrogated by his own people and strangled to death. He just wanted to destroy beautiful things for you to see, so he made handsome men and beautiful women in the screening room. Shooting each other to kill both of them, and then cutting to the next scene before we could react... Too bad, Inglourious Basterds didn't give us a little time to be sad (maybe because of editing, after all Maggie Cheung's scenes are all Deleted) In the end, I just want the war to end early, I just want to shoot Hitler and Goebbels’ mistresses to death, and whip the corpse repeatedly, what can you do with me, I’m the director and screenwriter hahahaha

I personally think that the two small gangs: 1. The time bomb on the leg when the theater exploded still looked like they were sitting on the seat, but they should have been standing and shooting. (And the Nazi fighting heroes have pistols to kill the heroine, and no one in a movie theater has a gun?)

2 Finally, to express pain, the director gave a shot of the Nazi's head scratching the grass, but the hand was supposed to be handcuffed.

A little enlightenment for me: war is cruel no matter how cool it is, and life is beautiful no matter how plain and peaceful. It's not that the higher the knowledge, the better, the devil Goebbels is actually a doctor hhh

Quentin's bad taste is also reflected. For example, the captain who was a film critic before the war seems very reliable. The result is that his plan failed (directors hate film critics, referring to the role of film critics in Birds and Evils. The director can't wait to kill it), such as his foot fetish as always, such as the innocently injured cyclists when the movie theater exploded, such as the pipe-sized humor and the gun-to-ball fight, and the movie theater to greet everyone All turned back, and Hitler wanted to eat chewing gum, and Goebbels was moved by Hitler to cry. textbook

Finally, does anyone think Quentin is particularly like Trevor in gta 5? Not only do they look alike but they're the same crazy inside hhh

Trevor in Grand Theft Auto

The same bald Quentin

Inglourious Basterds quotes

  • Col. Hans Landa: What a tremendously hostile world that a rat must endure. Yet not only does he survive, he thrives. Because our little foe has an instinct for survival and preservation second to none... And that, Monsieur, is what a Jew shares with a rat.

  • Lt. Aldo Raine: [Drawing a map] Up the road apiece, there's an orchard. Now, besides you, we know there's another kraut patrol fuckin' around there somewhere. Now if that patrol were to have any crackshots, that orchard would be a goddamn sniper's delight. Now, if you ever want to eat a sauerkraut sandwich again, you gotta show me on this here map where they are, you gotta tell me how many there are, and you gotta tell me what kinda artillery they're carrying with 'em.

    Sgt. Werner Rachtman: You can't expect me to divulge information that would put German lives in danger.

    Lt. Aldo Raine: Well, now Werner, that's where you're wrong, because that's exactly what I expect. I need to know about Germans hiding in them trees, and you need to tell me, and you need to tell me right now. Now, just take that finger of yours and point out on this here map where this party's being held, how many's coming, and what they brought to play with.

    Sgt. Werner Rachtman: [puts his hand over his heart] I respectfully refuse, sir.

    Lt. Aldo Raine: [a smack is heard offscreen] Hear that?

    Sgt. Werner Rachtman: Yes.

    Lt. Aldo Raine: That's Sgt. Donny Donowitz. You might know him better by his nickname: "The Bear Jew". Now, if you heard of Aldo the Apache, you gotta have heard of the Bear Jew.

    Sgt. Werner Rachtman: I've heard of the Bear Jew.

    Lt. Aldo Raine: What d'you hear?

    Sgt. Werner Rachtman: He beats German soldiers with a club.

    Lt. Aldo Raine: He bashes their brains in with a baseball bat is what he does. Now, Werner, I'm gonna ask you one last goddamn time, if you still respectfully refuse, I'm callin' the Bear Jew over. He's gonna take that big bat of his, and he's gonna beat your ass to death with it. Now, take your wiener schnitzel lickin' finger and point out on this map what I want to know.

    Sgt. Werner Rachtman: [after brief pause] Fuck you... and your Jew dogs!

    [the Basterds all laugh]

    Lt. Aldo Raine: Actually, Werner, we're all tickled to here you say that. Quite frankly, watchin' Donny beat Nazis to death is the closest we ever get to goin' to the movies. Donny!

    Sgt. Donny Donowitz: [from offscreen] Yeah?

    Lt. Aldo Raine: We got a German here who wants to die for his country! Oblige him!
