Quentin Tarantino’s latest film was unveiled today with the release of it’s first movie trailer. Starring Brad Pitt as a Nazi-killing commander, Inglorious Basterds will open in theatres on August 21, 2009.
“In German-occupied France, Shosanna Dreyfus witnesses the execution of her family at the hand of Nazi Colonel Hans Landa. Shosanna narrowly escapes and flees to Paris, where she forges a new identity as the owner and operator of a cinema. Elsewhere in Europe, Lieutenant Aldo Raine organizes a group of Jewish soldiers to engage in targeted acts of retribution. Known to their enemy as “The Basterds,” Raine’s squad joins German actress and undercover agent Bridget Von Hammersmark on a mission to take down the leaders of The Third Reich. Fates converge under a cinema marquee, where Shosanna is poised to carry out a revenge plan of her own…”
This should be quite the visual foray for fans of blood and glory if Tarantinio lives up to his reputation.
