Tarantino's Top 20 Movies Since 1992.
He mentions Fight club, Takashi Mike's Audition, Jont security Area (:D) and the Matrix (:P). Battle Royale's the first one. He also says Matrix would have been the official number two but for the sequels spoiling the first. I agree with him.
He mentions Memories of a Murder which is in my watch list and have heard some good wom.
P.S: PR, he mentions one woody allen film and M. Night Shymalan's Unbreakable.
Saw the film again on Saturday. 80% full, standing ovation in the end.
Liked the film better but don't think it's as good as PF/KB. The film is so not about the basterds. In fact the basterds were the weak links if I may say so. The trailer was sort of deceptive. When I saw it for the first time I thought saaptars 3 and 4 were a little boring but liked them this time around. First chapter was amazing. Those 15 minutes, I don't know what was happening to me. I mean I could not take my eyes off the screen. Very very arresting. Only Tarantino fossible. And the tension he builds up in chapters 4 and the climax :2thumbsup:
Feddy/Kannan/others (Spoliers)
1. Why does Waltz let Shosanna go in the first chapter? And does he recognize her in the restaurant scene?
2. Why does Waltz kill Kruger? She got what she deserved:?

what is the full list? I can't access uteeb right now.
Battle Royale and Memories of a Murder are oriental mainstream films with its stylistic appeals and engaging narrative, the sort of films I could imagine being endorsed under "QT presents" and/or dvd introduction by QT. :D Audition is brilliant, and audaciously made trademark Miike gory-horror. I remember JSA, made by director of 'Oldboy' (a film more likely to be found in QT's list) but I prefer another film on Korean divides, Taegukgi.
Matrix should make into such lists, it shouldn't be treated as a surprise. I don't know how Wachowski brothers could have rewritten the next two parts. Reloaded is better than Revolutions as a singular film, but I believe the trilogy as such is excellent work. Fight club, it withered down in my estimation, but I could see why he'd have gone for it. Unbreakable is a brilliant film, it's Manoj Night's best as Pr has put it. Anything Else is nothing great, from my memory. I'd have to revisit it.
1. An lonely teenaged girl who just saw the murders of her family right in front of her eyes. I remember reading that Landa telling it to his driver that the surroundings itself would kill her or she would itself die from the trauma. She is nothing but a harmless insect(to him) but he is proven wrong at the end.
(I Vaguely remember reading this from the original script that was leaked).
He definitely doesn't recognize her in the restaurant and even when he stops Melanie he says that he forgot what he wanted to ask her eventually saying that whatever he wanted to ask would have been something very trivial.
2. Even I have the same question. My only answer is he wants to surpass/supercede her in his negotiation with the Basterd's Top Command. That's the only possible idea that i could come up with.

My thought is, he has conducted his own investigations into her background and must have had his doubts. Milk is more like his trademark, I think, much like our protagonist in Clockwork.. (in fact, Kubrick would have been proud of the first scene :D). Or perhaps it is just a plot device to build more tension into the scene :?
2. The interrogation of Kruger is perhaps one of my favourite scenes in the movie. What an evil twist to the Cindrella story :notworthy: . Why does he kill her? Perhaps because he thought she was dispensible at that point (the allies have already landed in France and the end is near). And also because he was annoyed that she thought she could get away with her lies.
pOdhum...thanga mudila...:twisted:
wtf is wrong, they wouldn't release the darn film in Indian theaters . :x
I think its releasing here in october.. read somewhere. oct 2nd annaiku :P

Right right.. He orders a dessert for himself.
Not going much into the plot, my other favourite parts:
At the pub - Mexican standoff, only the guns pointed at each other's d*cks :lol: (in fact the entire pub scene was great)
At the cinema: Laurent smearing makeup on her face, as if preparing for war :notworthy:
At the cinema again: Larurent in the red dress walking over to the big circular window, striking one of the most impressive poses I have seen in movies of recent times.
Pitt carving the final swastika and declaring calmly "I think this might just be my masterpiece"
That's more like a dialog Quentin wrote for himself and which perfectly fits Aldo's mission too.

I don't have access to it right now. It was in google videos. I'll get you a link later today.
QT wanted an actor who could render that role with body language. He sent over the script to Deniro & he immediately wanted to do it. QT had asked Deniro to have the body-language of a pile of old clothes for the part. :lol: In the sense, his character should be able to show nuance, its history. This character had been in jail for many years, and Deniro's performance is so great that the audience could make-out what he had been through & the past more often than not, shows up in one's demeanor. It also explains the levels of indifference & self-containment that Deniro's character is able to manufacture, against Jackson's girlfriend, played by Bridget Fonda. After QT's elucidation, I'm able to appreciate Bobby's part a bit more! :D
Jeez...appadi ninaikkave illa. I suppose I should cut de Niro some slack :P and watch it again. But I don't mind doing so, great movie, wonderful book.
Booked sirappu kaatchi ticket for tonight!
Oh, releasing today?
Yeah, saw the Ads in TOI. Some theaters are having a preview show at 9 tonight (i booked at Fame @ Forum Value Mall). Matra theaters la nalaikku nu nenaikkaren...
Recently had the chance to watch....watched 'The Informant' instead :lol2:
