how could you describe something in so much detail and be so far from the truth. She escaped from the dairy farm when the Germans killed her parents, this detective knows this and decides to taunt her. Since he knows she comes from a land of dairy farmers he orders her a menu item that contains mostly all dairy products. It’s not meant to be complicated
Thats bullshit! Strudel is made with flour, water, vinegar, salt and vegetable oil. The filling is made of apples, nuts, cinamon, sugar and some spices. sometimes butter inside but never lard.
She was distressed because he killed her family. He was just testing her with the food....he had no idea who she was. If he would've known he would've ex3cuted her on the spot.....
I mean, isn't that literally what happened? Everytime Landa interrogated people, he already pretty much knew what the truth is, he's just toying with the people he's interrogating.
and also the glass of milk is a subtle hint from landa to shoshana. as in the beginning of the film he specifically asked the farmer for milk in french, which shoshana does remember.
He's already in doubt of who Shoshanna really is and either he wants confirm it by observing her reaction, or he wants to torture her psychologically..
Fun fact: it's theorized he asked for milk because the French used to poison their wine when the Germans raided them so getting milk was also a subtle way of him preserving his life
Tarantino has talked about it before. Landa doesn't actually recognize her but he uses these moments to give us the feeling of suspense that Shoshanda would be feeling inside as she tries to figure out if he knows. Constantly teasing you as if Landa knows but ultimately he doesn't. I think even Christoph Waltz has also spoken about it. Its genius writing.
So much of tarentino’s work is like that. I remember watching an interview where the interviewer is asking why Dr Schultz in Django didn’t just shake candy’s hand, or just walk up to candy lane and offer to buy broomhilda straight out, and the answer was simply that schultz was wrong. His ego and pride wouldn’t let him not come up with a complicated plan and avoid the direct route. Tarantino allowed the character to have flaws, and in doing so, seemingly created plot holes that weren’t actually there, because the characters don’t know what we, the audience, know.
Ähm… if that wasn‘t clear to you maybe you should skip quentin entirely. She was the girl running away in the first scene when Waltz drank his milk at the farmers place
That’s strange to me because even though I didn’t know about the lard and dairy aspect at the time I first saw this, the shots set you up to know that in her culture, she’s not supposed to eat it and that refusing it will give her away as Jewish.
He doesn’t know. But he’s suspicious of everyone. Combine a suspicious person with someone who has something to hide, and you’ll always think they know
He does know. In the end of this scene he wanted to ask her just one more question. And then he says that he forgot. That’s when he usually reveals that he knew all the time she was lying, just like he did at the end of the conversation with the farmer. He is nice at first but in the end „the sheep turns into a wolf“. He decided to not do it this time at the table. So he said „oh I forgot“. He does that actually all the time through the whole movie. Another example is the cinema scene with the Italians 😅😅😅 he pretends that they are actually doing good italians, but it’s pretty obvious that he knows all the time that they are American spy’s. He enjoys these games and does it for his own pleasure and fun. This is what makes him so terrifying.
@@Finsterwald_ That logic doesn't work at all, in both of those cases he takes almost immediate action. In the restaurant, he lets her leave and never brings it up again.
He absolutely knows. People like him.. it is was their life’s mission to study Jewish faith, to wholly understand it. Because the more you know of your enemy, the easier it is to hunt them. That was n@zi logic anyway.
Lander....what an amazingly convincing actor . That character he played is truly a psycho killer w/ such a calm calculated demeanor I was scared to death-
Landa was scary..... There is no scarier man than calm gentleman with ability to become a dangerous cold killer in an eyeblink. Great acting here, well written movie and one of the most memorable villains of all time
Understanding the cream wasn't vital to the scene. The man executed her entire family and *let* her run away. Now this ingenius villain is sitting a foot away from her trying to have a polite conversation. She had to struggle to compose herself so much, i highly doubt offending her god was ever on her mind in that moment.
@@RecluseBootsythey where also dairy farmers plus if you still remember the first scene by then he also asks for a glass of milk. It’s like an “I know who you are”
He does know who she is. In the end of this scene he wanted to ask her just one more question. And then he says that he forgot. That’s when he usually reveals that he knew all the time she was lying, just like he did at the end of the conversation with the farmer.

I also thought him ordering a glass of milk fir her was to create tension because when he killed her family, he asks for a glass of milk from their harborer's farm. So she's thinking he maybe knows who she is but is trying to play it cool.
The role was originally written for Leonardo DiCaprio but I’m SO glad he couldn’t do it because of scheduling conflicts. Christoph Waltz absolutely killed it.
Yes Christoph Waltz is one of the best actors of our time and noone can change my mind lol, every character he plays he nails it. He can make you love him (Django) or hate him (Inglorious Bastards).
The terrifying thing about Landa is that, he could eliminate all the good guys of the movie if he wanted too, but just chose not too, cause he likes to play with them like toys.
@@zjktz7782 There was a reason he kept the protagonists alive though. He knew he was on the losing side of the war and saw the basterds as his way out. And for shoshanna , he didn't entirely know about her being jewish, and they were showing a movie at her theater
Tarantino has been on record saying canonically he got the house he wanted on Nantucket and set up a detective shop where he became a local celebrity. Apparently he started work writing a story about Landa solving a series of murders on the island but scrapped the project because he thought he was becoming to much of a likable character after what he did in this movie
Gonna have to put the brakes on this one. It was well desearved too. This was a fictional way to end WWII whereas the hurt locker brought light to modern day combat and the mental strain our boys deal with on the daily. Both outstanding movies but the hurt locker was such a fresh catagory.
@Smithy18 fax. I was miserable every minute of deployment and after a week home I was already wondering when I was going back. Stockholm syndrome gets ya.
I've used Hans Landa as my gaming handle for years and no one ever notices, but everytime I see a Hugo Stiglitz or Aldo Apache in my lobby, the whole lobby lights up lmao.
My friends parents were from Germany and every time he made the mistake of telling me his mom was making strudel I'd show up uninvited for dinner. The smirk on her face when I'd show up told me she was really pleased that I loved her strudel so much.
It's also a German dish, it's also a dairy product and the first time he was hunting her was at a dairy cow farm. The entirety of the scene is Hanse letting her know he knows who she is. But is deciding not to have her killed. He's a detective above anything else. It's why he smokes the ridiculous giant pipe that Sherlock Holmes pipe in his first scene, as homage to the detective and also as a mocking gesture to the farmer whom he knows also smokes a pipe.
@@kyle6899 he knew that the farmer was hiding "enemies of the state" Hanse is by Quentin's own admission a fantastic detective. He will have already known the names and identities of the people he KNOWS are in the basement. He also knows she is a french national as he yells after her. Au ri Voir Mon Cheri. He knows that one individual escaped the dairy farm that day a french girl. With blonde hair. Assuming he has been casing the farm for many weeks to know the farmer is hiding Jews. It actually makes perfect sense he knows exactly who Is in the cellar. And everything about them. He has also shown that the extermination of the Jews whilst his official objective is not that much of a necessity to him personally as he deliberately did not even try to shoot her as she was running. Which means he was enjoying toying with her at the dinner table with the strudel. Just as he toyed with the farmer with the pipe and milk
@@firecrowfun I mean there's no certainties. But Quentin has been quoted in interviews that Hanse knows everything going on in the room. It's why he is so shocked when aldo brands him. Because he has never been in a situation where he wasn't in control.
Oh now that makes sense why she looked so uncomfortable eating it, I thought it was because of him. Got to love Tarantino he really throws in some obscure things in his movies. Love it
Watched this movie 7 times. I thought there was something going on in this scene (perhaps the milk because she was discovered on the dairy farm) but now this makes MORE sense.
I think your initial instinct is right. Lard is a problem not because it’s an animal product (I mean milk is also an animal product 🤦♂️) but because lard is almost always from pigs which are not kosher. So basically, the strudel is a problem even if it’s by itself regardless of the milk. That’s assuming it has lard though, plenty of stride recipes don’t include lard. Also there’s no indication given that Shoshana and her family were religious in any way (I mean she has a boyfriend in the movie and isn’t seen practicing any traditions) and mixing meat and dairy is usually only practiced Conservative to more Orthodox on the spectrum. Unless Tarantino said somewhere specifically this was the idea, I think the video is reaching
The first time I watched this movie I thought he was busting her balls, trying to get a reaction out of her because of the cream and milk, alluding that he knew she was Shoshana, the dairy farm jew Girl from years ago. He was very sharp, but when she didn't react, he dropped the act almost instantly. His instincts were right though! Shoshanna kept the facade till he left 😂😂😂
The scene in Pulp Fiction where Jules eats the guy’s cheeseburger is inspired by the assassination of Cicero where the assassin asked Cicero for one of his pears before he killed him.
@@Artliker1234I said the same thing ... because he wasnt suspicious anymore after that scene I have watched the movie yesterday and it was perfect especially after I got to comprehend the meaning behind this scene
I was wondering what is going on w these close shots of the food and her tenseness and facial expressions all this time!! I knew it was something more than her just being tense from knowing its him but could never get it and never looked for an answerr cu, id always forget cuz this movie is kinda longg haha but now i know!! Ty!! I love this moviee
Most people will get that something is wrong but not know exactly why, good to have it explained but also nice as you say for it not to be handed over so easily
I think Col. Landa ordered all that because he vaguely remembered her as Soshana, the former Jewish girl who escaped the Nazis at the beginning of the movie.
I thought he asked for the cream because he knew or had a suspicion that she was the daughter of the dairy farmer all those years ago. Excellent movie and Perfect villain 👏🏻
And that’s why Hans Landa is the absolute BEST villain I’ve seen on film in decades. Christoph Waltz is very, very underrated. To portray such an awful person, yet I loved every minute of it.
No he never saw her face and also she has no authority so letter her slide doesn't help his plot in anyway. It's litterally to see if she is a jew. He doesn't know who she is
I really love this scene, the whole scene is basically a build up tension in shosanna side about weither Hans remember's her. The truth is Hans already remember her right from the starts and even use the pastry to told her that he know.
Explain how he'd even know? He saw the back of her head from 100 yds away. And also, you can't see a world where a Jew might forgo keeping kosher for 5 minutes in order to not get shot in the face by a Nazi? Like it's a stupid fan theory. Jewish law literally says "if your life is at stake, you don't have to follow the rule."
Man some villains you just love to hate. Amazing performance from an incredible actor. Kinda like Michael Myers, he's the villain but it's HIS movie. Gotta love it dude.
@@mohaverider8582 exactly! No lard in the strudel by recipe and no need to assume they used it a butter-substitute if cream is available in the same scene!
It was a coincidence, because in this moment he really doesn't know it's her. But it is a layer of poetic depth by the director. Although strudel doesn't necessarily have lard in it so it's probably not even that
@jasminepetal3972 a movie is a way for the director to talk to the audience. A movie can only be as deep as the audience can dive into it. Below that and you've poked through the floor of the movie and are exploring nonsense. Is Quintin Tarantino telling me, "Oh look, he fed her strudel, which at the time probably wasn't Kosher. Not only do I think that fact is relevant to the story I'm telling you but I also asume you'd pick up on that even though you probably never made strudel in your life and if you did you'de use butter" or is it just you saying that
I can tell you as a pastry chef with 36 years of international experience that strudel dough does not ever have lard in it. It’s liquid oil and not saturated fat.
@@Pastrychef90210 solid fat such as lard? I think he is defos reaching and iv not actually got around to watching the film but if they ate meat earlier in the meal the point would still stand because jews cannot have meat and dairy in the same meal this is why kosher shops always sell vegan desserts
I'm pretty sure Landa knew exactly who she was, and that he was toying with her for his own amusement. Even if you fail to notice every other character trait, you can't possibly miss the fact that he's a smug bastard on top of everything else.
Thats why its so funny he doesnt know. That tells me hes really not that great then, wgich maybe js the point ? And she was abke to get over on all kf them by burning em in the theater sooo Also, that being arrogant can make you sloppyy n less precise overestimating yourself cuz you're too cool to take precautions or do the extra work
Didn't know that part. I felt her stress was his presence and she probably knowing she was caught, which she wasn't. When she exhaled after he left, I felt her fear 😨
He knew who she was. He just wanted to mess with her to see if she'd break. Just like she knew what he was saying when she was hiding under the floorboards.
I think he also orders the milk because he recognizes her resemblence to the family he killed at the farm, but idk if he knows her face. He couldnt have seen her face as she was under the floor boards and exited from under the house and ran away
Also. commandment for the preservation of life is a thing in Judaism. it's literally part of the religion saying "there are some rules that, if you have to break to survive or save someone, you are allowed to break"
I liked Col. Landa. He was such a friendly person. I think the treatment of him at the end was extremely uncalled for. As was the treatment of all the Germans in the film.
Always trying to get the maximum of fun from his prey, toturing them in any way imaginable before letting them go, catch or kill them. Hans Landa is the definition of Genius Evil.
He also fails to finish the desert and spoils it by putting his cigarette in it at the end. It is a metaphor for the inclination of evil to destroy that which is good.

I have a question.. is this forgiven by the Lord since it was done to avoid death... Or must she die for her beliefs in the eyes of the lord ?

You don't have a voice to do "did you know?" videos
Your "fact" is not correct. Phyllo dough (used to make strudel) does not normally contain lard. Neither does puff pastry (typically butter).
Thats bullshit! Strudel is made with flour, water, vinegar, salt and vegetable oil. The filling is made of apples, nuts, cinamon, sugar and some spices. sometimes butter inside but never lard.

Strudel is made with butter, not lard.

You are correct lard does not make a light airy strudel butter is used when leafing in the butter to get the layers.
Thats the way I know strudel, too.
During WW2, lard was often used a s a replacement due to rationing.
Not when you're rationing.

It's however you perceive her reaction to be. The main point is that she reacted after eating it for the first time.
She widens her eyes quickly while giving a big sigh. She was over it and wanted to leave. It was exasperation, not surprise at the food.
Oh now that makes sense why she looked so uncomfortable eating it, I thought it was because of him. Got to love Tarantino he really throws in some obscure things in his movies. Love it

Lard is a problem not because it’s an animal product (I mean milk is also an animal product 🤦♂️) but because lard is almost always from pigs which are not kosher. So basically, the strudel is a problem even if it’s by itself regardless of the milk. That’s assuming it has lard though, plenty of stride recipes don’t include lard. Also there’s no indication given that Shoshana and her family were religious in any way (I mean she has a boyfriend in the movie and isn’t seen practicing any traditions) and mixing meat and dairy is usually only practiced Conservative to more Orthodox on the spectrum. Unless Tarantino said somewhere specifically this was the idea, I think the video is reaching
The first time I watched this movie I thought he was busting her balls, trying to get a reaction out of her because of the cream and milk, alluding that he knew she was Shoshana, the dairy farm jew Girl from years ago. He was very sharp, but when she didn't react, he dropped the act almost instantly. His instincts were right though! Shoshanna kept the facade till he left 😂😂😂
Yeah, I thought the milk thing too.
The cream was made from lard due to a dairy shortage in France during wwii
This is one of the best scenes in cinema of all time. The actor’s emotion is so powerful you can feel it.
Lmao no its not. The opening scene yes. But nit this scene of 2 ppl eating
@@jeffcunningham0389this is the man the killed her entire family, she has to act calm and normal. Watch it again it’s really good.
Sometimes I watch this scene to fall asleep. The unintentional ASMR is out of this world. So is the acting!
Nothing more satisfying than the enthusiastic way he was chewing the dessert
The scene in Pulp Fiction where Jules eats the guy’s cheeseburger is inspired by the assassination of Cicero where the assassin asked Cicero for one of his pears before he killed him.
yeah Titus Pullo was hungry that day
And she also grew up on a dairy farm, which is his way of letting her know that he knows who she is.
I don't think that's true. He'd surely have murdered her if he was sure
@@Artliker1234I said the same thing ... because he wasnt suspicious anymore after that scene
I have watched the movie yesterday and it was perfect especially after I got to comprehend the meaning behind this scene
He didn't know who she was, he had zero mercy. If he knew who she was he would've ended her without a second thought.
I was wondering what is going on w these close shots of the food and her tenseness and facial expressions all this time!! I knew it was something more than her just being tense from knowing its him but could never get it and never looked for an answerr cu, id always forget cuz this movie is kinda longg haha but now i know!! Ty!! I love this moviee
I love when they don’t think the audience are idiots and have to spell everything out for people. Those are the best movies
Most people will get that something is wrong but not know exactly why, good to have it explained but also nice as you say for it not to be handed over so easily
this is one of the films of tarantino
Truly one of all time
Actually his best film ever.
No shit Sherlock
@@RHYD_ no
@@RHYD_ he didn't direct Sherlock
See its things like this that make movies so good the little nuances help so much
Completely agree!!!
But its complete fabrication
He also orders her a glass of milk in reference to her family being dairy farmers
I think Col. Landa ordered all that because he vaguely remembered her as Soshana, the former Jewish girl who escaped the Nazis at the beginning of the movie.
No shit 😂
@@isaiahnewnum8808 bro just explained the plot of the film
No shit sherlock
bruh she is Shoshana
I m jewish
He also checks her pulse when he kisses her hand holding it with his. He does this to check if they’re nervous. Pretty creepy huh?
That's very strange cause your pulse can also do that if your attracted to the person doing it to you.
I thought he asked for the cream because he knew or had a suspicion that she was the daughter of the dairy farmer all those years ago.
Excellent movie and Perfect villain 👏🏻
One of the best looking desserts still seen on the big screen
Not sure if it was intentional but thats a damn sneaky detail. Love it
That's two of the most commonly well known rules of Judaism it definitely was intentional
@@mrf509 wouldn't know. I live in Europe. Not a lot of jews left here😅
its not true. Strudel is made with butter, not lard. And a fancy restaurant like this was using butter.
Wow, didn't known why this part of the film felt so unusually powerful. 🤔 I'm glad learnings still a thing.
we are too!
Bro the strudel and then the “one glass of milk!” This man is insane
He was such a chillingly bad guy in this film.
Especially in this scene.
He just oozes menace.
And that’s why Hans Landa is the absolute BEST villain I’ve seen on film in decades.
Christoph Waltz is very, very underrated. To portray such an awful person, yet I loved every minute of it.
tarantino was able to make the movies because of him
Don’t know if he’s underrated, having won 2 Oscars
Right ?!?!? Hes so goodd
I thought it was because the farm her family was hiding on was for dairy cows, so he was saying he knew who she was.
That’s it entirely, this is a load of nonsense
No he never saw her face and also she has no authority so letter her slide doesn't help his plot in anyway. It's litterally to see if she is a jew. He doesn't know who she is
The way he ate the dessert was just awful to watch.
Really? It just made me want strudel
@@gio3061I masturbate to this scene
I loved everything about him.
I loved this scene. I found it extremely satisfying the way he enjoyed his dessert. 😂
He's a human caricature
This woman was cast perfectly. And so beautiful.
Average looking white woman
So beautiful, her name is Mélanie Laurent
The woman is a French actress named Mélanie Laurent.
She looks good but not that beautiful
@@colt2128Then how more beautiful a person supposed to be?
This one I didn't know. Thanks. So many tiny details in this movie
Theres always alot of tiny interesting details in tarantino films i feel like, thays why i love his moviess tho hes douchey n weirdd
I really love this scene, the whole scene is basically a build up tension in shosanna side about weither Hans remember's her. The truth is Hans already remember her right from the starts and even use the pastry to told her that he know.
He doesn't know... it's called having suspense in your script.
Hes a paranoid antisemitic nazi he probably orders it for everyone as a test.
Tarantino has said he didn't know who she was.
Explain how he'd even know? He saw the back of her head from 100 yds away.
And also, you can't see a world where a Jew might forgo keeping kosher for 5 minutes in order to not get shot in the face by a Nazi? Like it's a stupid fan theory. Jewish law literally says "if your life is at stake, you don't have to follow the rule."
What a letdown. He was such a nice character.
The more I learn about this guy the more schiesty he becomes. Gotta love it.
Man some villains you just love to hate. Amazing performance from an incredible actor. Kinda like Michael Myers, he's the villain but it's HIS movie. Gotta love it dude.
"Not allowed to mix Dairy food like milk and cream with animal products like -lard- milk and cream"
They classify milk and cream differently in Abrahamic law
There is no lard in the strudel!! The only fat is butter.
Not during WW2. There was a butter shortage so it would have been made with lard
@@loadnlock357 your whole point makes no sense: whipped cream and butter are the same exact thing, only their processing is different!
@@catothecensor you get butter if you continue to whip the whipped cream
Learn your ww's
@@mohaverider8582 exactly! No lard in the strudel by recipe and no need to assume they used it a butter-substitute if cream is available in the same scene!
I love how her eyes say "fuck, that's good" lol
I didn’t even think of that. Love this scene even more now.
Interesting😮
It was a coincidence, because in this moment he really doesn't know it's her. But it is a layer of poetic depth by the director. Although strudel doesn't necessarily have lard in it so it's probably not even that
W rationing food back then it likely did have lard
@jasminepetal3972 a movie is a way for the director to talk to the audience. A movie can only be as deep as the audience can dive into it. Below that and you've poked through the floor of the movie and are exploring nonsense. Is Quintin Tarantino telling me, "Oh look, he fed her strudel, which at the time probably wasn't Kosher. Not only do I think that fact is relevant to the story I'm telling you but I also asume you'd pick up on that even though you probably never made strudel in your life and if you did you'de use butter" or is it just you saying that
He knew how to read EVERYONE and what buttons to push, except Aldo
Christoph waltz is an amazing actor.
I can tell you as a pastry chef with 36 years of international experience that strudel dough does not ever have lard in it. It’s liquid oil and not saturated fat.
It was ww2 food shortages where rife in Germany
@@ackshually404 I get that but the creator of this channel is making a massive reach with his assumption.
@@ackshually404 and even then, if they don’t have oil, they can’t make a substitution in a baking recipe for solid fat.
@@Pastrychef90210 solid fat such as lard? I think he is defos reaching and iv not actually got around to watching the film but if they ate meat earlier in the meal the point would still stand because jews cannot have meat and dairy in the same meal this is why kosher shops always sell vegan desserts
@@ackshually404 doesn’t matter. You cannot substitute liquid fat for saturated fat. Not in pastry and baking. Frying, yes. Baking, no.
I'm pretty sure Landa knew exactly who she was, and that he was toying with her for his own amusement. Even if you fail to notice every other character trait, you can't possibly miss the fact that he's a smug bastard on top of everything else.
Thats why its so funny he doesnt know. That tells me hes really not that great then, wgich maybe js the point ? And she was abke to get over on all kf them by burning em in the theater sooo Also, that being arrogant can make you sloppyy n less precise overestimating yourself cuz you're too cool to take precautions or do the extra work
Didn't know that part. I felt her stress was his presence and she probably knowing she was caught, which she wasn't. When she exhaled after he left, I felt her fear 😨
This scene still gives me such extreme anxiety. Christoph is absolutely TERRIFYING in this
He knew who she was. He just wanted to mess with her to see if she'd break. Just like she knew what he was saying when she was hiding under the floorboards.
Hey everyone! This guy said there's lard in the strudel. That must make it true!
perhaps let him tell that the Austrian, German AND French population as they didn't hear about that, yet. Might change loads of recipes.
In war, the last thing on your mind is “ prohibited food”
Never knew this. Very cool detail
And the glass of milk bc she grew up on a farm with cows.
Actually she didn’t grow up on a farm she was hiding on the farm
@@SHIFTxVIRAL I believe she was hiding with neighbors and that Shoshana was also from "cow country."
@@SHIFTxVIRAL which she grew up on
@@epgamer1145 The dairy farmer was their neighbor.
I had no clue. Learn more about this film as the time goes on. Always wondered why she had reacted that way. Brilliant
He made that desert look so damn good…
THIS guy makes a great villain. I've only recently discovered his movies and he is something special.
Y'all being obsessed with a nazi villain shows you didn't learn shit from this movie
I think he also orders the milk because he recognizes her resemblence to the family he killed at the farm, but idk if he knows her face. He couldnt have seen her face as she was under the floor boards and exited from under the house and ran away
Finally, a “did you know” that I actually did not know. Well done
Tarantino amazes me the more I watch his films
She doesn't seem to be the type of character to care about that. Especially when facing death
Exactly...She was more than fine with dying in the theatre while getting her revenge.
Also. commandment for the preservation of life is a thing in Judaism. it's literally part of the religion saying "there are some rules that, if you have to break to survive or save someone, you are allowed to break"
this is definitely one of the cinematic projects of Quentin Tarantino
I liked Col. Landa. He was such a friendly person. I think the treatment of him at the end was extremely uncalled for. As was the treatment of all the Germans in the film.
Damn. That’s a clutch detail
The actual reason why he ordered milk was because of Mr LaPadite’s milk in the beginning of the movie
I love hearing different accents pronounce my name! Great film!
Always trying to get the maximum of fun from his prey, toturing them in any way imaginable before letting them go, catch or kill them. Hans Landa is the definition of Genius Evil.
He also fails to finish the desert and spoils it by putting his cigarette in it at the end. It is a metaphor for the inclination of evil to destroy that which is good.
i would watch a whole film with cristoph waltz in a dinner table
The rule is to not eat unkosher foods unless you have no choice.
Excellent observation on the details!
That whole scene made me goddamn hungry.
She was like "damn it's good!"
