Outlandish Biscuit: Inglorious Basterds

(Wow, I'm actually a bit proud of this title, go me! - oh and it's basically bout me spoiling the film for everyone else)

When my friend asked me if I wanna see that film I agreed immediately. Not because I liked the plot (I didn't even know anything about it - except for Brad Pitt and Til Schweiger playing a role in it and I can't say I'd be a particular fan of anyone of them). I just generally like to go to the cinema, so I thought yeah why not. After all the stuff I've heard about it, I expected a brutal-war-something film with not much of a story-line and plain violence.

And it turned out to be completely different from what I expected!

The actual plot looks like this to me:

Anti-Nazi-American group tries to kill Nazis -> Jewish women gets nearly killed by Landa (funniest Nazi ever) -> Few year later Jewish Women owns a cinema -> Goebbles and some other Nazi-Hero guy want to show the premiere of the film they made about the Nazi-hero one in the cinema -> women wants to kill them -> The 'Basterds' have the same idea as well -> in the end all the Nazis - including Hitler - are dead and the jewish women as well

The funny thing about the film is the way all people behave like. Some of those characters were plainly awesomely displayed.

For example, Aldo Raine (played by Brad Pitt) is not more than a constantly swearing, but somehow also quite clever leader of this group.

The best thing he said was in my opinion (can't translate it properly, because I've seen the syncro-version of course):

A.R.: "Why did she choose a basement for this? We can't fight in basements!"

Some other guy: "We don't have to fight here, we're just here to talk. And she probably just wanted a place without Nazi distractions."

A.R.: (ignoring what the other one just said) "But their are too many reasons, why we can't fight in basements. First of all: You can't fight in a basement."

I know, standard joke, but the way he said it was truely funny ;)

Then there was my absolutely fave character in this whole thing. Hans Landa played by Christoph Waltz who clearly surprised me with his acting skills. He was a colonel (also called the Bear Jew or somethin) who actually wasn't that deeply into all this Nazi-Propaganda and everything, he basically did his job. We decided he was a bit of a psycho because of his genuine laughs and weirdish jokes. In the end he said he'd give up if he was mentioned in all the history books as the person who made the war end and as someone who was a Basterd and a member of the Operation Cinema all the time.

I can't pick a single favourite quote, but the one I laughed the most, was this one:

H.L.: (very satisfied) "Ohhhh that's a bingooo!"

A.R. and another one stare at him weirdly.

H.L.: "Is that the way you say it: That's a bingo?"

A.R.: "You just say "bingo"."

H.L.: "Ahhhhh Bingo!!! What fun!!"

And - always the most important person in a Nazi-film - the Hilter actor. I'm normally used to the german 'Hitler' called Bruno Gans. He's the best for this role and noone could ever beat him.

Even if he's not playing Hitler you think of Hitler. And in this film Hitler was played by Martin Wuttke (someone I've never heard of before, but I just found out that he Goebbles in another film). He was quite okay. But the film didn't even need a proper Hitler, because the Hitler I.B. had some humour as well - at least it seemed so.

Hitler recieves a phone call.
The phoning person: "Do you still want to talk to "private Butz", mein Führer?"

Hitler: "Who or what is a private Butz?"

And for finishing this here I've got two pictures and a video (am I brilliant or what?).
