aspect of WWII and how important the movies were in shaping German popular opinion. Also if you've seen the IB, how in the projection room Shosanna gets caught up in the propaganda film and how it makes her rethink and sympathize with Fredrick. I think that there are a lot of pieces in this movie that DUers will very much identify with and/or feel smart for knowing.

1. Saw the film last night
It was a lot to think about, that's for sure. The character of Col. Hans Landa is not to be missed, there has not been a more 'complete' villian since Heath Ledger's Joker.

4. Dirty Dozen
I'm interested in seeing this movie, but it seems a lot like the Dirty Dozen.

5. It's nothing like any movie I've ever seen
It really is it's own thing. See it.
