What a terrific movie! It could've used just a little bit more blood guts though.

And the Best Picture is...

Not Avatar, the Hurt Locker or Precious. Hands down, the Best Picture of 2009 was Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds. While a movie about World War II being nominated for Best Picture is like the San Diego Chargers making the playoffs (always there, but never winning), Inglorious Basterds speaks volumes about the film medium as a form of art and commercial entity. It also casts a new light on the historical film genre, how stories are told and the cinematic joys we can look forward to as long as filmmakers try to make water-cooler talkers actually say something.

Inglorious Basterds is a period piece set during WWII that contains as much historical accuracy as this sentence. But within that freedom, the film tells a story that is more cinematic than history. While many historical m...

Tarantino's self described masterpiece.

I find this to be Tarantino's best movie. It doe shave his dialogue as usual but this time it is never annoyingly intrusive like it can be in some of his other movies such as the Madonna speech in reservoir dogs and the pot belly speech in pulp fiction. Here the dialogue and the plot interact well to create a very satisfying picture with many interesting characters and some great scenes. The plot is incredibly interesting and I was fascinated to follow through the whole thing. After a rewatch of it it slows slightly involving a series of three scenes involving the character Shoshanna that slowdown the film slightly but not enough to harm every other scene that all work incredibly well. I did not mind the history rewrite since I know the history it more of made it a interesting twist and...

Reescrevendo a História

Antissemitas ou alienados à parte, é razoável supor que lavaríamos nossas almas do genocídio perpetrado pelos nazistas durante a II Guerra Mundial se houvesse a oportunidade da desforra. Mandando às favas a solenidade reverente comumente adotada em abordagens fílmicas do tema, ainda que nem por um segundo inconsequente, Tarantino articula um subversivo banho de sangue (derramado pelos hitleristas, promovido por judeus) que dá vazão a esse ímpeto expiatório da plateia. A face vingada de Laurent, em regozijo triunfante, projetada numa cortina de fumaça durante uma sessão de cinema em chamas, é memorável imagem-síntese numa obra de estética erudita e cerne rico em implicações significativas.
