May 20th, 2009Straight from the official Cannes Film Fest Site (And lots more to come):
Quentin Tarantino, President of the Jury in 2004 and Palme d’Or winner in 1994 with Pulp Fiction, has returned to the Croisette to show his latest work in Competition: Inglourious Basterds. Tarantino worked feverishly to finish the film in time for this 62nd Cannes Film Festival. Known for his tributes to film noir (Reservoir Dogs), Blaxploitation (Jackie Brown), Shaw Brothers kung-fu movies (Kill Bill), and slasher movies (Death Proof), he has now made his own version of the war movie, with Inglourious Basterds.
1940: France is occupied, and Shosanna Dreyfus witnesses the execution of her family at the hands of the Nazi colonel Hans Landa. Shosanna manages to escape and flees to Paris, where she forges a new identity for herself as a movie-theater operator. Elsewhere in Europe, Lieutenant Aldo Raine organizes a group of Jewish American soldiers to perform swift, shocking acts of retribution. Later known to their enemy as “the basterds,” Raine’s squad joins German actress and undercover agent Bridget von Hammersmark on a mission to take down the leaders of the Third Reich…
“Each chapter in the movie has a vaguely different look, and a different feel, and the tone is different in all of them,” explains Tarantino. “The opening feels like a spaghetti western, but with World War II iconography.”
Follow the yellow brick road…

Tarantino @ Cannes
So it’s upon us. Well into this years Cannes film festival, and things have been well… interesting. From the opening cheerful and up-beet audience for Up to the well shocked, appalled, frightened, disgusted and very few who were blown away by the now self proclaimed “Greatest film director in the world”; Lars Von Trier’s Antichrist (and if you haven’t seen the press conference go to the Cannes site and watch it. I have never seen the press try to tear a director apart like the beginning of that). It has been a must talk about year, with some press even saying they have never seen Cannes so excited for a film [Inglourious Basterds].
Quentin is out and about watching films and the best is yet to come. Wednesday is the big day. The official site is now live over at www.inglouriousbasterds-movie.com and the soundtrack is now known:
Keep on this site for more updates. Talk to you during the German Night in Paris.
