Inglourious Basterds by Christiane Butler



Title/Year: Inglourious Basterds/2009
Director/Birth Country/Year Born: Quentin Terantino/US/1963
Budget: $70 Million
Gross: $320,389,438
Synopsis: A group of Jewish soldiers from the US team up to frighten & kill as many Nazi soldiers as they can, and plot to kill Adolf Hitler among other high ranking Nazi’s. Meanwhile a Jewish girl in hiding as a French owns a cinema & also plots to kill Hitler.
Narrative and Visual Keywords: Scalping, incognito, French cinema
Notable Collaboration:
Random fact, Etc.: The movie doesn’t follow truth, in the end Hitler is killed by one of the Jewish soldiers. Quentin’s highest grossing film yet.

P.O.V.: We see many points of view, most commonly we follow either the Jewish soldiers or the Jewish cinema owner. Occasionally we are shown a glimpse of Hitler in his office.

Morality & Memory: The film is very brutal in it’s treatment of Nazi’s, the Jewish soldiers literally scalp most of them.
