Who the hell thinks this is a weaker Tarantino film? This is top five for literally anyone, and it might honestly be the best full package. I like Django Unchained and Pulp Fiction more, but this is still a 14/10 movie…

[@ragexriot9099]

For me it’s 1. Pulp Fiction 2. Diango Unchained 3. Inglorious Bastards 4. Reservoir Dogs I haven’t seen the others so I can’t judge but I think if I saw once upon a time that would’ve taken 4 and reservoir dogs would be 5th

[@voodoochild1975az]

Regarding Shoshana speaking English in her death film... I saw it differently... She always spoke English. She was the only other one in the house that understood what was being said... The only with warning.... But she could not speak out to warn her family.... It gave her just Enough of a chance to escape knowing what was coming. She recorded it in English as a middle finger to Landa specifically, essentially saying she knew the whole time. That was my interpretation.

[@watergrowsifwatered8048]

Yes, mine as well. Thoughout the film I was wondering about her lack of English knowledge as it seemed they were drawing attention to it at the start. I think it's much more interesting to view it this way although for the time period I'm sure it's uncommon to know English as a young French girl out in the country side.

[@landonletterman831]

I think you're right, but I don't think she speaks English. Whole reason Landa used it was to converse about how much he knew (that the farmer was hiding them). If Soshana knew, there would have been a scramble. I think she knows enough to make this film, or actually translated it herself, but not enough to pick up on what Landa said in English to the farmer. But you're 100% right on the rest of it. The English was so that she could parade the danger they were in, and only Landa would know it (or be one of the few, at least) and, much like herself, be unable tp do anything about it.

[@D1ngusKhan]

Interesting, never considered that. I always thought that it was because she doesn't speak German and the Germans don't speak French. There was enough time for her to learn English between the murders and her revenge. It would also be much easier to pick up a new language in the city vs the country. Owning a theater that would be playing American movies would help, too.

[@joelsirola5440]

Which is also funny considering that Landa also knew the whole time that Mimieux was Shoshanna, simply playing with her in the restaurant scene, saying he has a question but somehow he forgot what he wanted to ask and afterwards puts out his cigarette in a way that resembles the Lapadite cabin

[@landonletterman831]

@@joelsirola5440 I don't remember him putting a cigarette out in anything in the cabin. My thoughts go to that humongous pipe (also; what a power move, "Ohz what a lovely pipe you have- BAM! -check this one out!"), and him drinking some milk. Did he have dessert? I only remember the milk and the pipe (although I agree that, if he did recognize Soshana, his "perhaps I'll remember it later" was really an, "I know _exactly_ who you are, and the only reason I don't blow your cover is a modicum of respect for escaping me, I'm busy with _so_ many other things right now, and I don't see it benefitting me to unmask you/what harm can one lone Jewish woman pose?" (he doesn't subscribe to the 3rd Reich mentality on Jewish people, he's just doing a job they want done, and doesn't let morals or emotion get in his way)

[@eriklehnsherr5784]

Here's one you missed. When the German officer comes to pick up Shoshanna for the first time; while shes on the ladder changing the letters on her theater, the musicical score playing is the exact same music as in Kill Bill right when The Bride starts to get circled by the Crazy 88.

"Why are the villains always drinking milk?" Milk is typically used as a symbol of innocence, and so directors tend to use it to show a villains pleasure in consuming, destroying, or otherwise eliminating, the symbol of innocence, to highlight that they're a bad guy.

[@InertFoxtrot117]

The milk thing is because milk is typically associated with innocence and purity due to the color and connection with infancy. Evil characters will be portrayed drinking milk to accentuate their evil/corrupt nature.

[@christopherharvie8716]

You’d think someone making a video about films would know this.

[@181cameron]

I always thought it was because milk is disgusting and people who enjoy it would also be disgusting. No, I'm not a vegan...I enjoy the flesh of animals, as well as a host of dairy products (ice cream, yogurt, cheese). Something about drinking milk, however, is just unsettling.

[@Alvan81]

@@181cameron When you see it coming fresh out of a Cow still warm, it is a little unsettling to drink it yes. Although cows being Herbivores is something.

[@Iquey]

I thought it was like, evil people steal a drink for kids from children, therefore having no respect for the innocent. Also dairy is often a luxury in many societies, or during the rationing of wartime, and drinking so much milk or cream displays a callous excess, similar to how Tanya in Tanya the evil passive aggressively mocks her military general about logistics and not caring enough about soldier welfare by adding a bunch of cream to her coffee.

So many people don't get Soshanna's message! _YES!_ It was in English, so the majority would not understand that they were in danger, much like her family under the floorboards! But she also knows Landa speaks English, was working security for the event, and would be in attendance. The act wasn't done with that in mind (she didn't go out of her way to make sure he was in there), but the message was for him as much as it was inspired by him (imagine if she had made it so Hans _was_ the only survivor, and as he escapes from the fire, the last thing he hears is Soshanna laughing from the roof of the burning theatre and the ashes of his political party as she cries, *_"AU REVOIR, HANS LANDA!"_*

So as an RN I have a bone yo pick ... specifically a wrist, with the assessment that Hans Landa is checking the Lapadi daughter's pulse to determine if she it's rapid from 'lying' when he asks her for a glass of milk. Firstly, if you watch how HL hand is on her arm the fingers are flat towards the along the anterior of her wrist, with his thumb on the posterior of her wrist. His fingers are not in position to check for a pulse. Most definitely not with his fingers in the correct position to determine her pulse. Being as smart as HL is ... he would know the correct way, even subtly to check a pulse. Which would be accomplished by pressing the 1st 2 digits into the distal area of the anterior radius. The correct position of the human body is anterior would be with with the palms facing outwards. His 1st and 2nd digits are in the region, but with insufficient pressure to discern much of anything. So then, why grab her arm to ask for milk, he even strokes or caresses the back of her wrist. This could be a calming effort, but with HL it is mist likely stealing a grope of the man's daughter right in front of him. A power move to set the tone that follows. Knowing the father can't say or do shit, as he gropes his daughter. If it was intended as an attempt to pulse check ... like so many films, they get it wrong. With Tarantinos eye, I doubt he'd miss that. So I find it more plausible it's a gropey power move

[@salvadorromero9712]

I did think it looked a bit odd but as someone not in healthcare assumed this guy maybe knew better than me. But I was instead going to say much in your spirit anyway. To wit, as the guy points out the pulse would not really provide useful information to Landa under the circumstances. So in Tarantino's hands we could assume it was either a homage to highly stylized "movie lie detection" from this famously nonrealist filmmaker. Or that the subtle pulse-taking was mood-setting gamesmanship by Landa. The scene is, of course, full of the "theater" of interrogation from a character who not only knows its importance but is a master of using it.

[@Metalalbumreviewers]

Thank you. I have never bought into the idea that he was "checking her pulse". Not just from it basically being physically impossible from where he places his hand and digits, but also that it would have been useless information to him, since anyone in that position, guilty or not, would be absolutely terrified, and have an elevated heart rate. People need to start enjoying films for what they are, and stop trying to find extra meaning in simple things where there is none. It leads to dumb shit like "Darth JarJar" going from a joke, to a fan theory that has been disproven, but still has vocal defenders that just can't grasp that sometimes, a scene or character in a film is as simple as they are presented.

[@Laziale719]

The strudel scene has extra significance because Shoshana is Jewish and the dish is made from pig lard, which isn’t kosher. So, Hans Landa was testing to see if she is Jewish. However, many have criticized the scene because she seems to move toward the dish prior to the cream being added, which HL emphasized needed to be added to this dish (which is also not kosher, but it was already not kosher so Shoshana shouldn’t have tried to eat the dish earlier).

I love the bat to the head scene. The way the bay is used to hit the walls leading up to the exit is the best suspense scene in any film.

I found it most interesting watching the movie where the German sniper is killing the U.S. Soldiers. It reminded me of To Hell and Back, the movie about Audie Murphy, especially the scene where he is killing the German soldiers while on a burning tank. Something to think about.

I wonder: Is the re-use of the scream a nod to De Palma’s “Blow Out?”

I definitely never noticed his strudel looking like a house when he puts the cigarette in it. I did however notice that her first bite resembled a dragon.A bit of foreshadowing perhaps?

I heard Tarantino say in an interview that WWII was the last war for America where the only difference in your enemies was their language. I think he mismatches the subtitles to accentuate this.

Movie producer Lee Donowitz from True Romance is a direct descendant of The Bear Jaw Donny Donowitz.

Doesn't Raine also kill the bartender after the tavern slaughter? Or am I remembering that wrong?
