Analysis of the Movie Inglorious Basterds by Quentin Taratino

Have you ever seen “The Patriot”? If you have do you know the truth behind it because some parts really happened and some parts didn’t. Meaning that “The Patriot” is somewhat historically accurate. The Patriot is somewhat historically accurate because the main character Benjamin Martin was not a real person he was based on Francis Marion, the Battle of Cowpens was exactly the same because the colonist had extra help to fight off the British, and the surrender of Colonel Cornwallis was somewhat alike because his army could not get around the French and the colonist in history and in the movie. So “The Patriot” has many differences and similarities to history.

History is used to teach many lessons. People learn history so they do not repeat the mistakes of the past. Movies try to recreate history in order to honor or teach people about the past. However, the history in movies show are not always accurate. Directors sometimes alter history in order to fit their own agenda. The movie, American Sniper, is a film adaptation of the life of Navy Seal, Chris Kyle and his struggles as a soldier, a movie that director Clint Eastwood had altered. This movie is only somewhat historically accurate because director Clint Eastwood altered the history, due to the director’s motive of sensationalizing Kyle as a hero in an action movie. He changed the characters, events, and the props in the movie to fit thi role,

The film The War Room is a documentary about Bill Clinton that has very little to do with Bill Clinton himself. The primary focus of the film is devoted to the team of campaign strategists that got Clinton to the presidency. The two main players the film focuses on are James Carville--the Lead Strategist for the Clinton campaign and George Stephanopoulos the Communications Director. The film follows them and their team of campaign strategists and experts as they try to get Arkansas Governor, Bill Clinton, to the presidency. The documentary highlights many key moments in Clinton’s campaign, for example the Gennifer Flowers scandal. However, the film showcases what was happening behind closed doors in the War Room, where Clinton’s

I read the section about the battles that took place during WWII. It brought to my minds that in real life. There are more important things during a war than finding a private Ryan. War is a huge event and the little things like finding a person to keep the family name going is too small to include in war history. This is what separates the movies from the real life. Another difference is they don't show the actual planning it takes to start an attack or the inelegance that is needed to set up the perfect defense barrier to prevent the advancement of the enemy soldiers. A real battle can last days, weeks, months, or years, compared to movie war that lasts not even a day and has one guy or one platoon take on the entire other side. The casualties of real war is tremendous, rather than movies where you see almost the same characters in the whole movie accomplishing some of the most intense tasks with only one or two dying. Also, in movie war you don't see the other side's horror. You think all the opponents are bad horrible people that deserve to die, when they are just soldiers doing their job and the only reason we are fighting them is because of a bad leader or government. So in the movies every enemy deserves to die and should be shown no mercy, but the actual thing about that is that the enemy is just like any other soldier. And furthermore when the good guys lose a battle in a

While watching this film you may find yourself experiencing some of the same emotions as the characters in the film this allows you to be in the movie letting you be a part of an important event in our history. This is what makes the film so unique. Its full of different scenarios that keep you wondering what is going to happen next. I think that this film is a very close representation of what WWII was really like.

There is one scene where the three flag raisers entered a crowded stadium before a football game which typified how an image of war can be so different to the reality of war. The flash photography, the cheering, the roar of the crowd all went to John Bradley’s head and he had flash backs of the fighting on Iwo Jima and the genuine heroes that he had left behind. This scene contrasts what the reality of war, were all the men are dug in and fighting for there life, and the images of war. Ira Hayes says “I know it’s a good thing, raising the money and that, ‘cause we need it. But, I can’t take them calling me a hero. All I did was try not to get shot. Some of the things I saw done, things I did, they weren’t things to be proud of, you know?” Clint Eastwood shows continuously, through his characters physiology shows how one single photo can be so different what really makes up the battle of Iwo Jima. The aim was to get war bonds; the minds of the three main characters through Clint Eastwood’s directing showed a strong insight to how the reality of a war and an image of war can be so contrasting.

In 2016 alone, over twenty-two movies were created based on true events of World War II. These films depict the dramatic fighting and emotional stress that fell on soldier's shoulders. Over the years, many historic films have been created yet one movie has proven itself superior: Saving Private Ryan. Steven Spielberg, a well known film director, first produced the movie to pay tribute to the soldiers who fought in World War II. With many occasions of graphic and realistic scenes, Saving Private Ryan allows viewers to gain an appreciation for the hardships troops experienced. This film gives the audience a glimpse into the intense battles fought in World War II, while also providing a heartfelt story about brothership and loss. Differing from the other World War II movies, Saving Private Ryan exemplifies a true war-drama with the help of the plot, historical accuracy, characters and setting.

Steven Spielberg's 1993 motion picture Schindler's List provides an account involving the Holocaust, an ethnic German businessman interested in exploiting warfare, and an affair during which he realizes that it is up to him to save hundreds of people working in his factory.

Inglourious Basterds argues that the American lens of Jews in World War II is inaccurate by contrasting the traditional American lens with a strong Jewish lens through parallel plots in the story. In Inglourious Basterds, we mentioned the opening scene which starts with the “Jew Hunter” in complete control and using fear tactics to make a French farmer give up the Jews he is harboring. This scene shows the “Jew Hunter” in full control of the situation with all power resting solely in his hands. The Jewish family being harbored is completely helpless as they hide under the floorboards. The Jews in this scene are in line with what the American perspective of Jews in World War II, helpless and at the mercy of the Nazis. However the Basterds violently contradict the American lens of Jew’s role in World War II history. This is done so in the way the film is laid out with alternating five different chapters, which alternate between Jews having power and lacking power. The Basterds reverse the power structure and become the ones inflicting fear. They begin to not only kill Nazis they make the Nazis fear Jews. This can be seen in one scene where the “Bear Jew” walks out of a dark tunnel, bat banging

On December 12th 1993, famed film director Steven Spielberg released a movie unlike anything the world had ever seen. Predominantly filmed in black and white, the docudrama had a running time of more than three hours. These elements, not exactly being crowd pleasers, did not foretell its incredible success. Schindler’s List, set in Poland and cast by the thousands, became the foremost Hollywood movie that not only attempted, but successfully depicted, the Holocaust in all its enormity. Up until that point the Holocaust had remained a subject that was considered taboo, horrific, and therefore impossible to portray on film. Despite the unavoidable flaws that follow creating a taboo subject into a movie, Spielberg defied all odds in directing an award-winning movie that brought an unspeakable subject to the surface to be discussed and understood. Through the use of cinematic effects such as black and white film and parallel editing Spielberg effectively portrays the story of Schindler and his role in the Holocaust.

Topic sentence: Throughout the film the 5 major themes change drastically, with life generally improving for Spartacus the themes all change drastically except for the nation of Rome.

“I took no poetic license with ‘Schindler’s List’ because that was historical, factual documents” - Steven Spielberg. Schindler’s List, directed by Steven Spielberg, is a historically accurate portrayal of the actions carried out by Nazi businessman Oskar Schindler, who doesn't hesitate to exploit Jewish slave labour in his factory. As World War II progresses, and the motives of the Nazi party become clear, Oskar’s incentives switch from that of a profiteer to that of a saviour. Oskar is able to save a number of Jews from certain death through gassing and labour camps. In the final scene of Schindler’s List, Spielberg’s clever use of colour, mise en scene and text creates a compelling closing scene that helped to convey the horrors of the
