Inglourious Basterds



I'm not Tarantino's biggest fan, but I did enjoy the cinematography in his latest foray into Nazi Germany, Inglourious Basterds.

The shots were all set up incredibly well and brought just the right atmosphere to every scene, from the green and pleasant rolling hills of the French dairy farms to the wartorn but strangely, almost cosy, surroundings of a charming cinema in wartime Paris.

My favourite scene in the film has to be the big fiery climax (without giving too much away, for those who have yet to see it). The scene is so atmospheric and creates a moving and unforgettable image.

The film is also notable for its use of colour, and as always with Tarantino's films, it's filled with small and symbolic details which most of us won't pick up on (at least not on the first viewing).

Eighteen Long Years




Interesting looking independent film, and interesting looking website for the film. I really like the shooting style from the trailer. Shot in an incredibly short space of time, too!
