And because you might not experience a film the same way twice, I try to do my best to give the less-than-favorites I encounter another shot. Some rise in my esteem, others fall farther. Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds is one of those films that got better with each viewing. Not enough to call it my favorite of his catalog, but enough to say I really enjoy it now and look forward to revisiting it.Tarantino’s dialogue throughout is more than just witty, as it also exudes feeling, dread, and risk. How and why people speak to each other, or how and why they chose not to, becomes a panic far more chilling than any display of violence in Inglourious Basterds. Tarantino’s words pop, but no longer do they exist entirely to flatter his audience’s pop know-how, but to illuminate the politics of communication and survival during WWII. Image/Sound The picture quality in the 4K UHD version is simply stunning. The colors are richer, the textures are more detailed, and the cinematography pops off the screen.

Inglourious Basterds, a World War II-set revenge fantasy about the secret and sometimes not-so-secret maneuverings of a group of gung-ho Jewish-American Nazi hunters known as the Basterds, is no less meticulously engineered than Tarantino’s other pulp fictions. Except this one is more linear and humane than most, lush with dialogue that rings weighty even at its smuggest, and featuring women that actually sound and feel like real women—not just men (or, more accurately, Tarantino) in drag. The film sees Tarantino moving beyond just flaunting his attention-mongering cine-geekitude, as he actually seems to be scrutinizing his obsession with the cinema by cleverly placing it into an apt historical context. Even though it’s made without irony, you can see how this boast is off-putting to Shosanna, perhaps because the sincerity with which he makes the comparison is the problem: the way his belief that his heroism—revered in a propaganda film produced by Joseph Goebbels (Sylvester Groth) that will premiere in Shosanna’s theater—is no different than York’s doesn’t take into account the concept of goodness. A lushly intriguing grappling with morality, ideology, nepotism, and authorship, the entire chapter may be the deepest Tarantino has ever gotten.
