Inglourious Basterds DVD Review

Monday March 8, 2010

A fairy tale set in a parallel-universe version of Nazi-occupied France, Inglourious Basterds is a pulpy, darkly comic, violent thriller written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. The movie features a fine international cast, and a substantial part of the marvelous dialogue is in German and French (with English subtitles). One of the best things about the film is the brilliant, Oscar-winning performance by Austrian-born actor Christoph Waltz. Read more: Inglourious Basterds DVD review
