Inglourious Basterds

Quentin Tarantino the maverick is back and in awesome form!

Blending fiction with history and a superb cast-the most notable being Brad Pitt the movie is a winner.

The movie starts with a senior Nazi officer arriving at the house of a dairy-farmer in Nazi-occupied France in 1941. The officer Colonel Handa portrayed by Christoph Waltz, interrogates the poor farmer methodically and coaxes out the truth that the farmer is hiding a family of Jews under the floorboards. A firing order ensures that all the hidden family is exterminated, but one girl Soshannah manages to escape.

The story moves to 1945 and we are introduced to Aldo Rainer played by Brad Pitt who leads a band of Nazi-hunters named The Basterds. he story moves on as the Basterds infiltrate the top rung of the Third Reich and get an opportunity to kill a whole bunch of Nazis in a theatre.

What happens? Do the Basterds complete their mission? Is Handa punished? What happened to Soshannah?

Watch the movies for answers!
