In my humble opinion, Inglorious Basterds is the best movie that I had ever watched. I am quite familiar with Tarantiono's works, but this piece of art is his best, no doubt. It is all about it, ranging from its catchy title, it housed a bunch of talented actors or Schauspieler ; the equivalent of the noun actor in German. Again in my humble point of view, the movies isn't all about Brad Pitt even he's southern slang is magnificent and unique (credit for that). Overall, Brad Pitt looks ordinary this time around and it would be a lot lovelier to see him as Benjamin Button again.Hehehe. Before I proceed, i'd like to make a remark to those who haven't see Inglorius Basterds, this movie ain't about the real Nazis operation in WW2, but instead a parody (it did looks like it) as we can see Hitler died in vain as he was shot by the Jewish Basterds unlike the real one as he committed suicide. Now moving on to the actors of the movie, i disagree with the statement Brad Pitt is the sole star as to me, the actor who played Standardtenfuhrer Hans Landa deserves a higher recognition. Hurrah, ho won Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor and lines of awards for his brilliant performance in the movie. According to Tarantino, the role was originally meant for Leo DiCap( can't imagine how Landa would turn out to be if it's him to play the role. eeeuww!) but later he changed his mind to have a German actor for the role; and to the fact, I thanked Tarantino for introducing me to Christoph Waltz as now he's my current sensation. You can see how he played Landa very sophisticatedly. The witty character of Landa is very passionate with linguistics and is well versed in English, French and Italian apart from his mothertounge, German. He is way a charmer at times but he can turns out to be very salacious as what he did to Bridget von Hammersmack by Diane Krueger. Apart from Landa, my other favourite character in the movie is Monsieur Perrier LaPadite; the dairy farmer whom Landa met as he is suspected hiding the Jewish family in his household. I love the scene so much. I t was seen as an unequal account of conversation as even thogh Landa was throwing questions to him, Monsieur LaPadite was very calm in answering it, and I have to say this, he's not even speaking, he was just uttering the answer 'yes' throughout the inspection. He's the silent man but without having so many dialogue yet still he's understandable and the fear of losing his family battled with the guilt he carried were well seen as a tear drop from his eyes, a s he pointed to Landa the direct location of where the Jews were hiding. The actor who played Monsieur LaPadite is a French actor named Denis Menochet. I am sure that after this both Herr Waltz and Monsier Menochet will have various offer to act in Hollywood.
p/s: good talents are not mainly from the Hollywood.
Denis Menochet as Monsieur Perrier LaPadite.
Christoph Waltz as Colonel Hans Landa.
