Tarantino Stirring Up Anger
“Seems you can’t even be nasty to Nazis anymore,” says the Hollywood Reporter. “A leaked script of Quentin Tarantino’s World War II upcoming drama “Inglorious Bastards” already is stirring up controversy for scenes of vengeful Americans bashing, scalping, shooting, and strangling German soldiers. What began as an Internet murmur in Germany went mainstream with a recent article by Tobias Kneibe, film editor of the Suddeutsche Zeitung, who predicted the project could have an explosive effect similar to that of Tom Cruise’s “Valkyrie,” which has been savaged in the German media even though it won’t hit theaters until 2009.”
