UK Premiere Of Inglourious Basterds

UNIVERSAL PICTURES INTERNATIONAL
and THE WEINSTEIN COMPANY
invite you to
the UK PREMIERE of
INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS


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 soon cross paths with a French-Jewish teenage girl who runs a cinema in Paris which is targeted by the soldiers."

No names have been confirmed to attend, but we are hoping that attending will be: Pitt, maybe his equally famous lady love Angeline Jolie, and the movie’s other stars including Roth, Kruger, 300’s Michael Fassbender and Mike Myers (yes, he of the Austin Powers and Shrek movies).

We just left the UK Inglourious Basterds premiere. It was the first proper screening outside of it's Cannes debut. We really enjoyed it! It's a zany 70s style blood fest. It shows a more mature Tarantino - the guy is deep and there are so many references to the almost lost art of film it' s beautiful BUT he offers a bag of tricks for everyone!



Tarantino sat 5 seats away from us in the audience, watching his film literally on the edge of his seat guaging audience reaction. The sweetest thing happened after the film started Tarantino walked around almost unrecognised like an anticipatory father checking the audio output from different areas in the cinema.

We got to congratulate and chat with the legend really briefly after the screening. He truly is the film geeks geek!
