Once upon a time in Nazi occupied France...........For this blog I will be quickly going over a poster I found made by a fan of the film Inglourious Basterds by Quentin Tarantino. First of all what a name, wish mine was as good as that. Second I have seen this film and think it was one of the best films of 2009, I went to see it on the opening night at the cinema and bought it the day it came out as I loved it so much.
The plot of the film takes place in an alternative version of World War II in Nazi occupied France, where a team of American Jews led by Lt. Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt) are to go behind enemy lines and kill as many Nazi's as the can, with some quite humorous and sickening scenes, but all in cause to entertain the audience.
This poster is very different from the designs made for the actual promotion of the film where each has the members of the cast in the usual tacky poses in their costumes for the film. This poster however has not used photography like films posters usually tend to use but uses vector images with a texture. This one is also centred around a very pivotal and the most exciting scene in the film where the Bastereds are meeting up with a double agent and one of them blows their cover by a very simple mistake where he says three glasses with his fingers but does this by using the way Brits and Americans would say this where the Germans use another version of this.
I think this is a really good, simple and very affective poster and is one of the best I have scene. It makes people who have not seen the film think about it and want to see it whereas people who have already scene it think it is very clever and think that it goes very well with the film.
