เรื่องย่อ

In Quentin Tarantino's 2009 film "Inglourious Basterds," World War II rages on in Nazi-occupied France. Against this backdrop, a group of Jewish-American soldiers, known as "The Basterds," are assembled to carry out a daring mission to spread fear throughout the Third Reich. Led by Lt. Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt), a no-nonsense, southern-fried war hero, The Basterds consist of a motley crew of misfits and mercenaries, including Hugo Stiglathor (Sergio Di Zio), Omar Ulmer (Roman Coppola), Wilhelm Wicki (Gedeon Burkhard), and Donny "The Bear Jew" Donovan (Eli Roth). Their modus operandi is to scalp and brutally kill as many Nazi soldiers as possible, while also engaging in acts of vandalism and sabotage. Meanwhile, a French-Jewish cinema owner, Shosanna Dreyfus (Mélanie Laurent), has escaped the clutches of Col. Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz), the ruthless and cunning "Jew Hunter," who has been tasked with rooting out Jews hiding in plain sight. Shosanna assumes a new identity as the owner of a Parisian cinema, where she plots her revenge against the Nazis. The film's narrative is expertly woven together by Tarantino, who intercuts between multiple storylines and characters to create a sense of tension and anticipation. As The Basterds begin their campaign of terror against the Nazis, Shosanna concocts a plan to take down Col. Landa at his own game. In what can only be described as a masterclass in filmmaking, Tarantino brings together a diverse cast of characters from different cultures and backgrounds, weaving them into a complex tapestry of violence, humor, and drama. The film's climax, which takes place during the premiere of a propaganda film celebrating Nazi Germany's supposed invincibility, is both intense and cathartic, as our heroes bring about a reckoning that will change the course of history. Throughout "Inglourious Basterds," Tarantino pays homage to classic spaghetti Westerns and World War II films, while also poking fun at his own filmic tropes. The result is a work that is both a loving tribute to the genre and a bold, innovative reimagining of the war movie.
