Inglorious Basterds (2009)

Location: Reitz Union Cinema

Description

Director Quentin Tarantino re-writes history in this film. The film begins in German-occupied France of the early 1940's, where Nazi colonel, Hans Landa is exterminating any Jewish dairy farmers still hiding.

Shoshana Dreyfus and her family are discovered, but she manages to escape the fate Landa condemned her parents to. She retreats to Paris to start her new life as the operator of a cinema, waiting for the sweet taste of revenge. Years later, an American rag-tag group of Jewish soldiers, The Basterds led by Aldo Raine (Pitt), are committing targeted acts of retribution against Nazis.

They are presented with a mission to take down leaders of the Third Reich in Shoshana's cinema. Twisted acts of fate, grudges and plots all play out in an absurd re-writing of history that only master director Quentin Tarantino can think of. Starring: Brad Pitt, Christoph Waltz, and Diane Kruger 

Awards: Christoph Waltz won Best Actor in the 2009 Cannes Film Festival, while Quentin Terentino was nominated for Best Director. This film is part of the RUB Entertainment weekly film series, which shows a new, old, foreign and independent film every month for one week each.

Running Time: 2hr 33 min Rating: R
