Tarantino's film delivers quite an epicurean delight!
Inglouriuos Basterds develops two independent story lines and their convergence in German occupied France during World War II. Led by Lt. Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt), the "Basterds" is a highly feared guerilla of Jewish-Americans who go about killing and scalping Nazis. Shosanna Dreyfus, a.k.a. Emmanuelle Mimieux, (Mélanie Laurent) is a young cinema owner in Paris who finds herself in the middle of an opportunity to avenge the brutal killing of her family by SS Colonel Hans Landa's (Cristoph Waltz) men. Their stories meet on the premiere night of "Nation's Pride", a state-sponsored German war film.
The film has rich dialog, superb acting, outstanding photography and a top-notch musical soundtrack. The movie kept me on my toes and also made me laugh many times.
