Theory week 2
In this scene from inglorious basterds the group of Jewish us soldiers who hunt down and
murder Nazis are shown here face to face with a Nazi leader, the scene is quite a dark
moment and the colours and lighting used here help to show this, being a lot darker and
almost wet looking adds to how the scene is going but also suggests to when the film is set
during the second world war a really dark and sad time.
In the scene the conflict is between the Jews and the Nazis however the “bear Jew” clearly
has the upper hand in this scene as he is shown towering over the Nazi, the camera almost
pointing up at him suggesting his power and the way he constantly looks down at the Nazi,
which will also be to show the hate the Jews had and how they would always look down on
the Nazis similar to the way they did them.
In the scene brad pits character is in the frame just sat down watching it happen and is the
one who initially calls for the bear Jew, this again shows his characters power as he sits
aback and lets this bigger guy under him handle the situation. Although in the scene he is
the one who does all the talking and is clearly the leader of this gang of Jews, but having him
sat out in this scene shows his characters ability to lead and the respect people have for him
and sitting back like that may suggests he’s arrogant with it and has a very “doesn’t care
attitude”.
