Inglorious Basterds

E lá estava eu no cinema, finalmente, para assistir ao novo filme de Tarantino. Primeiros, os trailers. Filme sobre Lula? For Christ's sake, de quem foi essa idéia?Ah, o novo de Gerard Butler:"Law Abiding Citizen"...he's huge now in America, you know? E finalmente: Once upon a time in Nazi occupied France...uma casinha num belo lugar entre as montanhas, Perrier Lapadite(Dennis Menochet) corta madeira com seu machado, enquanto sua filha pendura roupas no varal. Um inicio típico de faroeste americano. Leio no Imdb que Tarantino intended for this to be as much a war film as a spaghetti western, and considered titling the movie "Once Upon a Time in Nazi-Occupied France". He gave that title instead to the first chapter of the film.
Christoph Waltz's (Col. Hans Landa,the jew hunter) first American film. His previous work is all in German cinema.

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."
- Monsieur LaPadite, I regret to inform you I have exhausted the extent of my French. To continue to speak it so inadequately would only serve to embarrass me. However, I've been lead to believe that you speak English quite well.
Perrier LaPadite: Oui.
Col. Hans Landa: Well, it just so happens I do as well. This being your house, I ask your permission to switch back to English for the remainder of the conversation.
Ele fala alemão,inglês, francês e Italiano no filme.
Bridget von Hammersmark: Do you Americans speak any other language besides English?

#Michael Fassbender's performance as Lt. Archie Hilcox is layered with irony due to his real life. Fassbender was born in Germany to German and Irish parents and raised in Ireland, now residing in London with fluency in German as his first language and English as his second, and a mastery of English accents and dialects. Here he plays and Englishman who goes undercover as a German, and who can speak German fluently, but cannot hide his accent.
Michael Fassbender tem lindos olhos azuis e nasceu em 1977! participou do filme 300, como Stelios. Também pode ser visto no filme "Angel", do diretor François Ozon. Fez o anjo Azazel na série da BBC, "Hex".
A triumphant directorial debut for the Turner Prize-winning British video artist Steve McQueen, Hunger has subsequently won awards at the Venice and Toronto film festivals. The film is extraordinary, as is Fassbender's central performance as the IRA hunger striker Bobby Sands.
Hunger is set in the notorious H-blocks of the Maze prison in Belfast in 1981, when convicted IRA men were fighting against the withdrawal of Special Category Status, which no longer recognised them as political prisoners."
In the film, a group of German soldiers are playing a game where one as to guess what famous name is written on one's forehead. The note on the soldier played by Ken Duken reads Mata Hari, a Dutch exotic dancer and courtesan who became known for being a double agent for Germany during World War I. This mirrors the role played by Diane Kruger a famous actress turned double agent for the Allies during World War II.

Major Dieter Hellstrom: [Hellstrom is trying to guess the famous person on his forehead, which is King Kong] I'll start, give you the idea. Am I German?
Bridget von Hammersmark: No.
Major Dieter Hellstrom: Am I American?
Cpl. Wilhelm Wicki: Wait a minute, he goes to...
Bridget von Hammersmark: Don't be ridiculous. Obviously I wasn't born in America.
Major Dieter Hellstrom: So, I visited America, yes?
Bridget von Hammersmark: Yes.
Major Dieter Hellstrom: Was this visit fortuitous?
Cpl. Wilhelm Wicki: Not for you.
Major Dieter Hellstrom: Now, gentlemen, around this time you could ask whether you're real or fictitious. I, however, think that's too easy, so I won't ask that yet. Okay, my native land is the jungle. I visited America, but the visit was not fortuitous to me, but the implication is that it was to somebody else. When I went from the jungle to America, did I go by boat?
Bridget von Hammersmark: Yes.
Major Dieter Hellstrom: Did I go against my will?
Bridget von Hammersmark: Yes.
Major Dieter Hellstrom: On this boat ride, was I in chains?
Bridget von Hammersmark: Yes.
Major Dieter Hellstrom: When I arrived in America, was I displayed in chains?
Bridget von Hammersmark: Yes!
Major Dieter Hellstrom: Am I the story of the negro in America?
Cpl. Wilhelm Wicki: No.
Major Dieter Hellstrom: Well, then, I must be King Kong.
Lt. Archie Hicox: Well, if this is it, old boy, I hope you don't mind if I go out speaking the King's?
Major Dieter Hellstrom: By all means, Captain.
Lt. Archie Hicox: [Picks up his glass of scotch] There's a special rung in hell reserved for people who waste good scotch. Seeing as I might be rapping on the door momentarily...
[He drinks it]
Lt. Archie Hicox: I must say, damn good stuff, Sir.
[He sets his glass down and smokes his cigarette]
Lt. Archie Hicox: Now, about this pickle... we find ourselves in. It would appear there's only thing left for you to do...
Ah, Brad Pitt está no filme. Assim como Daniel Brühl (Goodbye Lenin)
