Movie: Inglourious Basterds (2009)

“In Nazi occupied France, young Jewish refugee Shosanna Dreyfus witnesses the slaughter of her family by Colonel Hans Landa. Narrowly escaping with her life, she plots her revenge several years later when German war hero Fredrick Zoller takes a rapid interest in her and arranges an illustrious movie premiere at the theater she now runs. With the promise of every major Nazi officer in attendance, the event catches the attention of the “Basterds”, a group of Jewish-American guerilla soldiers led by the ruthless Lt. Aldo Raine. As the relentless executioners advance and the conspiring young girl’s plans are set in motion, their paths will cross for a fateful evening that will shake the very annals of history.

Tagline: Once upon a time in Nazi occupied France…

Trivia: Lt. Archie Hicox (Michael Fassbender) wears the insignia of the British Combined Operations Command, which included forces from all the British services as well as other allied forces as well as the famous Commandos.

Goofs: Incorrectly regarded as goofs: Col. Hans Landa claims the Bubonic Plague was caused by rats. However the plague was caused by fleas on the rats, not the rats themselves. Despite this, at the time it was largely believed rats were the cause so it is correct for Landa’s character to be mistaken.
