Synopsis

In Nazi-occupied France during World War II, a group of Jewish-American soldiers known as "The Basterds" are chosen specifically to spread fear throughout the Third Reich by scalping and brutally killing Nazis. The Basterds, lead by Lt. Aldo Raine soon cross paths with a French-Jewish teenage girl who runs a movie theater in Paris which is targeted by the soldiers.

Inglourious Basterds looks promising for our next movie night. Does it get a conversation going afterwards?

Cian, a film-club style conversation afterwards could be good, even when people disagree.

Inglourious Basterds is one I am weighing up. Keeping this on the list for a quieter evening rather than trying to squeeze it in.

Aisling, yes, a spoiler-free discussion would be ideal. I am trying not to look too much up beforehand.

For anyone considering Inglourious Basterds: This is the sort of choice I might miss without someone putting it forward.
