Christoph Waltz won two Oscars. One for the role of ultaracist - Hans Landa in Inglorious Basterds, the other for the role of antiracist - King Schultz in Django Unchained. A classy actor
I don’t know that Landa was so much a racist as he was just a colossally self serving opportunist. Sure he served a genocidal regime but, as we saw, he was always ready to turn against the Nazis on a dime if he was guaranteed to benefit from it
The Frenchman wasn't "too weak" he realized that he already knew they were hiding, and had no choice but to admit it, otherwise risk a much, much worse form of punishment for his family.
@@ExicianWe don't really know who we are until we are in the situation itself. It's tragic, but I don't blame the Frenchman, he was as much a victim as those he was trying to protect. it was an evil situation brought on by evil people. The one who should be blamed is the SS officer.
Fun fact about the guy who plays Hugo Stieglitz, the "crazy" German guy who killed a bunch of Gestapo (Nazi secret police) and joined with the Basterds: the guy who plays him is Til Schweiger, who is apparently best known in Germany for starring and directing comedies and/or rom-coms. He had no interest in ever playing anything Nazi related... until he was told his character was a Nazi killer. Then he was all for the project.
People like this who comment people snitching or being weak and breaking like they wouldn’t do that in those types of situations smh. They would break so quick
Yeah and the fact is he knew that Landa already knew, and he had no moves left other than sacrifice his family and himself for no reason. Ah, the brilliance of that opening dialog is second to none. Utter perfection in building up the tension, and watching it slowly turn from bad to worse. One of the best opening scenes in any movie.

Reactors who know at least some history, who understand and appreciate filmmaking, and pay attention are the best reactors. And there are so few of them. This indicates to me how awful the educational system in American is. Other reactors from different countries are often just as bad, but they are watching mostly American films so I give them leeway for that. And then foreign films … few react to them overall. Usually only very well-known films.
@@teresas8173 foreign films definitely need more attention. They have been, just a little more, but we're getting there 😂. But yeah I understand what you're saying. Although I don't think this is the fault of said reactor either. Ignorance isnt always the fault of the ignorant, right? Film is art. There are multiple layers of enjoyment. That enjoyment thickening the deeper you go, but becomes darker and harder to navigate. And that's the beauty of movies and the culture that surrounds it.
Americans have become stupider with each generation. It’s jarring to read letters that soldiers wrote during the civil war and see how eloquent and well-educated they were compared to today’s generation.
The French guy in the beginning can't be a hero and protect them because he needs to protect his family. It's not a fantasy where you can be hero with no consequences.
I think Brad Pitt's character is actually snuffing tobacco rather than snorting cocaine. Snuff tobacco back then referred to dried powder tobacco kept in a 'snuff box' and snorted. Some people still do that today, but at some point in history it became much more common to 'dip' the tobacco in your cheek instead of snuffing it.
Very popular in the 1700s and 1800s, no? Aristocratic gentlemen kept their snuff in ornate snuff boxes. I wonder were it got its start. No early than the 1500s because tobacco originates in the New World. I guess a visit to Wikipedia is in order. Edit: Tobacco was used by indigenous Americans before the arrival of Europeans.
@@GiveMeTheRicehis accent is very obvious when he speaks German though, which makes the bar scene actually work, as it makes sense for the German soldiers to be suspicious.
french guy in the opening scene had two options. either tell and condemn to death the jewish family, or not tell and have the soldiers search the entire house and find them, which would pretty much mean they would kill him and his daughters as well, just to instill the fear in everyone who would be thinking of helping jewish people in the future. you could see the pain he went through when he had to confess, and maybe if he would’ve only risked his own life, he would’ve kept quiet, but he for sure didn’t want to risk the lives of his daughters
lol. Called the Frenchman weak. Not understanding how derogatory it is when waltz character is explaining how to “think like a j-w”. Then said how unimpressive it was a pinned down sniper killed 300 people lol. wtf man. I haven’t finished watching but wow.
Kinda love that the Basterd's plot and Shoshanna's plot to kill Hitler only intersect through pure chance and the characters have no knowledge of each other or meet each other at all.
The French guy in the beginning had to snitch because he was told pretty much that if he did his family would no longer be harassed, aka probably killed.
Yeah, these two women have been exposed to too much gang culture. There's no such thing as snitching or ratting. He's saving his daughters. I stopped watching right there.
Also, the villain probably already knew, he mentioned rats and searching into cellars while explaining how good he was at his "job". So even if the french guy hadn't say anything, the soldiers would've have search the house anyway and him and his family would've being killed.
for real lol if he dont snitch... his 3 younh daughters would get jump by alot of evil men that would want one thing of those 3 good looking girls.... and we all know what it.
Landa puts ink into his pen. People from the latest generations: "Is Landa going to take a DNA test from him, or what?" Not recognizing an ink pen. Expecting a DNA test in the 1940's. We are lost!
The one on the right talks about how cowardly it is to fight in a snipers nest, yet that is the whole point of being a sniper. You are supposed to engage the enemy without compromising your position. It’s a sniper’s dream to hold of an offensive just by his skill alone, only a few snipers have accomplished such a feat. Even though this a fictional story, the girl on the right seems to lack any kind of critical thinking. Just because you study ww history, don’t mean you are an expert. You don’t even have to be an expert to realize the whole point of being a sniper is to engage the enemy without direct confrontation.
shake the hand when meeting someone, ''he is very touchy'' wtf??? he is trying to enlist them? he is a scientist? taking dna test????????????? something is seriously wrong with them to not being able to read that situation and call the french man weak i can't continue this reaction.
Shoshanna wasn't a "dumb bitch" for caring a dying man. She is a person who couldn't give up all her humanity despite her hate. Her rich sympathy was not fully taken away even when she's facing her enenmy. That is the best part of the character.
They speak English therefore they must be American. 😂 NO, they're English, you know where the English language comes from. Not only that but Winston Churchill is sitting in the room. There are countries outside of the USA, and Britain was fighting 2 years before the Americans joined.
Tarentino described every scene that Hans Landa is in as an interrogation. It really feels that way watching the movie. He is constantly in control, knows exactly what is going on, and only humors his partner to obtain more information or gain advantage for himself.
During Landa and Shoshanna's conversation at the restaurant,it wasn't that Landa liked dairy too much, but he actually did know it was her from the start. He was just mentally torturing her by keeping it ambiguous but using coincidences to have her guessing if he does know or not. As for the cream on the strudel, that type of cream is made with pig fat. Pork is forbidden in Jewish culture. He is testing and torturing her further.
Bonus fact: Adam Sandler was originally cast as "The Bear Jew" and was excited to play the role, but couldn't because of scheduling conflicts with "Funny People." Eli Roth did a great job, but oh boy... what it would be like to see Adam Sandler coming out of that tunnel with a baseball bat.
The Landa-Shoshana meeting in the cafe has been debated for years. But the clues are there. Hans knew exactly who she was. He ordered the glass of milk (a reminder of the dairy farm) and forced her to put cream on her strudel (which breaks kosher) as a means of making it as uncomfortable as possible and possibly even forcing a confession. But this conversation takes place late in the war where the Allied Forces and the Soviets had the Germans all but beat. Hans knew this as well, though the Nazis were in denial and resorting to propaganda to restore morale. Landa also isn’t German (he’s Austrian), so it’s not like he feels any inherent national pride. With the threat of German defeat looming, he allowed Shoshana to proceed until he figured out his next course of action. Stunning writing. Phenomenal acting. Arguably the greatest villain in cinema history.
Fun fact, one of the first roles cast in this movie was for Donny "The Bear Jew" Donowitz, though not by the person that ended up playing him. Originally, Quentin had long wanted to work with Adam Sandler and approached him to play Donowitz. He accepted, but filming ended up conflicting with another project of his and the role needed to be recast.
I love the fantheory that got a lot of traction when this came out, about how all Tarantino movies take place in a shared universe. And the idea was, this is where history diverged. It's why a couple of hitmen are so up on pop culture in Pulp Fiction, its why Once Upon A Time in Hollywood goes the way it does, etc.
Christoph Waltz was casted because he could speak German, French, English and Italian fluently. He was a rare find for Tarantino and he needed him for this role.
The Frenchman wasn't "too weak" he realized that he already knew they were hiding 10:28 stop pretending you 2 would be gansgters lol even the most hadcore badass man would fear those words after someone with the power to take away and put your family in pain, say those lines lol The frenchman has 3 fking daughter too his duty is with them. one mistake and his 3 young cute baby girls would get attack by alot of men with bad intentions.
31:48 She came face-to-face with the man responsible for slaughtering her family, barely held her composure in front of him and she's supposed to "wait until she gets home"??
Small but important detail about Hans Landa's "touchiness" -- he's a detective, literally it was what he was before the war, and he's getting reads on people. Sensing their emotional state by being in close proximity. Once you think about it like that his behaviour makes a lot more sense, things you notice like how he holds that French farmgirl's wrist as he asks for milk; he's feeling her pulse.
This movie is super important to me as I first watched it with my paternal grandfather who fought in WW2 and was friends with many British soldiers, there were specific moments and events that he would say ‘that’s accurate’ or ‘yep that’s how me and my unit worked’ and it was fascinating to hear his perspective on the events of that time
Fun Fact: There is a backstory to the baseball bat that the "Bear Jew" carries. Before being deployed he bought that bat from a store in his Boston neighborhood, he then took it to all his Jewish neighbors and asked if they had any family members that were trapped in Europe and if they did, he had them carve/write the names of their family members into the bat. One of the names in the bat is Anne Frank.
D-day was June 6, 1944. When we come to Paris, it's June '44, so the allies likely landed in France very recently, though I don't remember it being mentioned. But this explains why there were allied lines a short drive from Paris.
i think you guys got a few things wrong because the movie plays with expectations and goes in ways most people don't expect. so frederick was actually a pretty decent dude. watch the movie again and try to forget he's a nazi and just look at his behavior. throughout the movie, he is unfailingly humble and polite and what gets him killed was simply that he was enamored with a chick whose history and mission was on a crash course with a violent destiny. he wasn't admiring himself on-screen. he was kind of traumatized by all the lives that he took with his own hands. and the german officer that was batted to death was also maybe the noblest character in that scene. the movie is playing with the whole allies vs. nazi trope and the nazis ARE the bad guys. but the "good guys" in the movie aren't that good either. their revenge sounds good. but tarantino shows you what the revenge actually looks like when we get into the details. the scalping. the clubbing of people to death. tarantino does this in a lot of his movies. he makes you root for people who actually aren't that good. even bridget von hammersmark ends up murdering someone who made a deal so she could go free.
By FAR this has been not only the best character ever created by Tarantino but one of the best characters in the history of cinema. He is so wickedly perfect and created that it is inevitable to feel sympathy for him despite being so cruel. And it is no wonder because thanks to this film we discover not a diamond in the rough (because Christopher Waltz was already old enough) but a holy grail of acting such as this similar actor. A tremendous thickness. Although Tarantino has a wide range of brutal characters but none as similar as the SS Colonel Tenien.
That Is not cocaine. It's snuff. Originally snuff was snorted as a fine powder in the nose. It's still used that way commonly in many places in Europe among the older generation.
the fact landa guessed exactly where the family was in one go after confirming his suspicion that they were there says enough. he wouldve searched the house for their whereabouts and that wouldve been the first place hed look. so while that whole family would die, so would the farmers.
Side note I'm thrilled y'all recognized Mike Myers. I only recently rewatched the film and had that hit me and was shocked I never realized. Good content for sure
Bruh the man basically said if you admit they are under the floor boards we wont kill everyone you love and we going to do a search regardless. IN WHAT WORLD WAS HE TOO WEAK?? 😂😂
How did the Frenchmen snitch? Are you really this disconnected to realize the German knew the entire time? And keep saying snitch/rat as if his entire family isnt going to be killed to lie for a truth that is obviously known, except to you apparently.
Whenever watching the opening scene, when Hans takes out his giant Sherlock Holmes pipe, I always think to myself "Hans Landa doesn't smoke." Such a good scene!
Landa asks for Shosanna to wait for the Cream to test if she is Jewish. As pastries were made with animal lard (fat) in WW2, the strudel would have been made with (most likely pork) fat. Jews can’t drink milk (or cream) and eat meat as it is not kosher. You were wondering if Landa knows Shoshanna's identity. While the cream is another interesting detail, it is heavily implied that Landa knows who she is when he orders her milk, as her family was hiding with a dairy farmer (the opening scene of the movie) when they were murdered, and the conversation where Landa interrogates the family's locations out of the farmer is held over a glass of milk, which he speaks about loudly. Additionally, Landa is an extremely perceptive and socially skilled person and Shoshanna is not exactly doing an amazing job of keeping it together. Landa even brings up something that he has to ask her and then jovially forgets it at the last second. From these details, it seems extremely clear that he knows exactly who she is, and he forces her to sit through all the little additions and extravagances of the strudel just to make her squirm.
It wasn’t in your reaction but Landa made her ‘wait for the cream’ to test if she was Jewish. Back then pastries were made with animal fat (lard and most likely pork) and they can’t have cream or milk as it’s not kosher.

Never get tired of seeing people experience this film. Waltz is a legend. I have yet to see him in anything where he doesn't steal the show.
The Frenchman wasn't "too weak" he realized that he already knew they were hiding 10:28 stop pretending you 2 would be gansgters lol even the most hadcore badass man would fear those words after someone with the power to take away and put your family in pain, say those lines lol The frenchman has 3 fking daughter too his duty is with them. one mistake and his 3 young cute baby girls would get attack by alot of men with bad intentions.
These reactors are kind of dumb, tbh. They thought Hans was going to conduct a DNA test in the 1940s.
31:48
She came face-to-face with the man responsible for slaughtering her family, barely held her composure in front of him and she's supposed to "wait until she gets home"??
Landa appearing out of nowhere behind Shoshanna in the restaurant is probably the most instant case of heart palpitations I've ever experienced
You guys really are bright 👍🏼
Ngl the ignorance and stupidity of their comments till 5:30 is so absurd.
The whole movie felt like QT was slowly tightening a guitar string until it squeaked.
I love that in all of Tarentinos' historical films, he loves to rewrite history to give us the ending he feels we deserve. The "happy ending"
Small but important detail about Hans Landa's "touchiness" -- he's a detective, literally it was what he was before the war, and he's getting reads on people. Sensing their emotional state by being in close proximity. Once you think about it like that his behaviour makes a lot more sense, things you notice like how he holds that French farmgirl's wrist as he asks for milk; he's feeling her pulse.
This movie is super important to me as I first watched it with my paternal grandfather who fought in WW2 and was friends with many British soldiers, there were specific moments and events that he would say ‘that’s accurate’ or ‘yep that’s how me and my unit worked’ and it was fascinating to hear his perspective on the events of that time
30:20 “I Don’t Think He Knows” 😂
He 100% Knows Who She Is 😅 Look At The Way He Dogs Her At The End
No he doesn't, you must not have finished the movie
@@zarat5151 ?
Explain
@@zarat5151he knows her, most likely. It is up to the viewer.
I noticed you were actually one of the few reactors who noticed Michael Meyers lol
Fun Fact: There is a backstory to the baseball bat that the "Bear Jew" carries. Before being deployed he bought that bat from a store in his Boston neighborhood, he then took it to all his Jewish neighbors and asked if they had any family members that were trapped in Europe and if they did, he had them carve/write the names of their family members into the bat. One of the names in the bat is Anne Frank.
My finger was too weak to hit the thumbs up and hit the thumbs down because it was the easy choice.
“What is he doing? Taking DNA test?” 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
shoutout to the legend sam jackson for being a narrator for this
"what's his name? he plays mace windu" - gurl, maybe you should watch more tarantino, lol
D-day was June 6, 1944. When we come to Paris, it's June '44, so the allies likely landed in France very recently, though I don't remember it being mentioned. But this explains why there were allied lines a short drive from Paris.
i think you guys got a few things wrong because the movie plays with expectations and goes in ways most people don't expect.
so frederick was actually a pretty decent dude. watch the movie again and try to forget he's a nazi and just look at his behavior. throughout the movie, he is unfailingly humble and polite and what gets him killed was simply that he was enamored with a chick whose history and mission was on a crash course with a violent destiny. he wasn't admiring himself on-screen. he was kind of traumatized by all the lives that he took with his own hands. and the german officer that was batted to death was also maybe the noblest character in that scene.
the movie is playing with the whole allies vs. nazi trope and the nazis ARE the bad guys. but the "good guys" in the movie aren't that good either. their revenge sounds good. but tarantino shows you what the revenge actually looks like when we get into the details. the scalping. the clubbing of people to death. tarantino does this in a lot of his movies. he makes you root for people who actually aren't that good. even bridget von hammersmark ends up murdering someone who made a deal so she could go free.
Nah Frederick is an ass
Not sure if you have already seen it, but Kill Bill Vol.1 and 2 are a must watch also.
Another Tarantino film I personally love is Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Death Proof is good too, but pretty unsettling.
Yesss!! 🤩 we need to check out both of those films. Thank you for the recs! 🙏🏼
I freaking love Deathproof simply for the Asskicking contest the ladies did at the end. As well as for Zoe Bells character lol just a wildcard lol
@@brianhawkins8370 100% agree.
@@MeeshDeeReacts and probably a million people have said the Kill Bill series, if you haven’t watched. Chef’s kiss 🤌🏼
Lol no, everything with Landa is him giving away he knows without giving it away until he's played with his prey.
"There's many disadvantages to fightin' in a basement. Number 1 bein' you're fightin' in a fuckin' basement."
I first saw this at the Sydney Premiere with Quentin in attendance where I got his autograph and shook his hand. One of the most surreal moments ever.
By FAR this has been not only the best character ever created by Tarantino but one of the best characters in the history of cinema. He is so wickedly perfect and created that it is inevitable to feel sympathy for him despite being so cruel. And it is no wonder because thanks to this film we discover not a diamond in the rough (because Christopher Waltz was already old enough) but a holy grail of acting such as this similar actor. A tremendous thickness. Although Tarantino has a wide range of brutal characters but none as similar as the SS Colonel Tenien.
lol you guys are pretty air heady. Interesting
Imagine summarizing Tarantinto's movies to quirky and gorey. That's like saying Stephen King movies are slashers.
Inglourious Basterds is one of my all time favorite films. I'm always game to see other people experience it for the first time.
That Is not cocaine. It's snuff. Originally snuff was snorted as a fine powder in the nose. It's still used that way commonly in many places in Europe among the older generation.
A lot of people used to joke that if all the history records of WWII were somehow lost and this movie is the only to survive they'd be fine with it.
the fact landa guessed exactly where the family was in one go after confirming his suspicion that they were there says enough. he wouldve searched the house for their whereabouts and that wouldve been the first place hed look. so while that whole family would die, so would the farmers.
Side note I'm thrilled y'all recognized Mike Myers. I only recently rewatched the film and had that hit me and was shocked I never realized. Good content for sure
Thank you for watching along! 😊
Bruh the man basically said if you admit they are under the floor boards we wont kill everyone you love and we going to do a search regardless. IN WHAT WORLD WAS HE TOO WEAK?? 😂😂
The bar scene is one of my favorite scenes in all of filmdom. The actor playing the Nazi officer is just incredible. TENSION!
Tarantino's best screenplay, without question.
Makes me happy you both are branching out to movies!
How did the Frenchmen snitch? Are you really this disconnected to realize the German knew the entire time? And keep saying snitch/rat as if his entire family isnt going to be killed to lie for a truth that is obviously known, except to you apparently.
I love you 2 but Micheal Fassbender is and was playing a British man in this movie😂😂.
Whenever watching the opening scene, when Hans takes out his giant Sherlock Holmes pipe, I always think to myself
"Hans Landa doesn't smoke."
Such a good scene!
That's actually Quentin Tarantinos pipe in real life 😆
tarentino is the greatest film maker ever.. insane how he can completely control your emotions.
Landa asks for Shosanna to wait for the Cream to test if she is Jewish. As pastries were made with animal lard (fat) in WW2, the strudel would have been made with (most likely pork) fat. Jews can’t drink milk (or cream) and eat meat as it is not kosher.
You were wondering if Landa knows Shoshanna's identity. While the cream is another interesting detail, it is heavily implied that Landa knows who she is when he orders her milk, as her family was hiding with a dairy farmer (the opening scene of the movie) when they were murdered, and the conversation where Landa interrogates the family's locations out of the farmer is held over a glass of milk, which he speaks about loudly. Additionally, Landa is an extremely perceptive and socially skilled person and Shoshanna is not exactly doing an amazing job of keeping it together. Landa even brings up something that he has to ask her and then jovially forgets it at the last second. From these details, it seems extremely clear that he knows exactly who she is, and he forces her to sit through all the little additions and extravagances of the strudel just to make her squirm.
The way he held his fingers is a big give away
You think Tarantino is crazy for this film. Just wait till you watch Kill Bill and Django Unchained.
this movie is, gut renching, sad, gory, nasty, heroic. And i fkn love every second of it.
The stuff he is snorting is actually powdered snuff which is a tobacco that is inhaled through the nose
a dna test in ww2, sis, sis.
"True Romance" is a must. Tarantino wrote it, but sold the script to finance his first movie, Reservoir Dogs. His style oozes through it!
Landa probably knew who Shoshanna was in chapter 3. He didn't order milk for himself (he ordered an espresso). He just ordered milk for Shoshana.
It wasn’t in your reaction but Landa made her ‘wait for the cream’ to test if she was Jewish. Back then pastries were made with animal fat (lard and most likely pork) and they can’t have cream or milk as it’s not kosher.
Christoph Waltz is a god tier actor.
I love love love this movie. Secretly watched it in AP Physics some years ago
Airheads 😂
Love that doggo barking! No lie.
It's been said before but Hans already knew they were there even before he showed up.
