but also right tarantino’s movies are all movies-about-movies and so what I think inglorious basterds is really about is how the contemporary american understanding of wwii has been shaped by movies like casablanca, bridge on the river kwai, the thin red line, the dirty dozen, the great escape, saving private ryan, schindler’s list & every movie steven spielberg has ever made, star wars, etc. that wwii has come to be a placeholder in hollywood for universal stories of good versus evil, and nazis have become a type of movie monster alongside vampires and serial killers. and in general americans tend to think of wwii very differently from europeans bc it affected us so differently; I think in general americans (at least non-jewish americans) tend to see wwii as a triumph of good over evil rather than a catastrophically destructive historical event. idk part of me is into the Punch A Nazi meme but part of me wonders how much it’s a product of genuine fear and anger at the current rise of fascist ideologies in the west and how much it’s an expression of a generation of kids raised on movies that have taught us to see wwii as a kind of american individualist superhero-versus-supervillain narrative rather than a complex and historically specific event.
