    I love the idea that when Hans grabs the girls arm to ask her for milk he uses the opportunity to feel her hear rate. Adds another layer to his facade and shows how calculating he is.

      It's interesting because, when you think about it, milk is sort of a symbol of innocence. Men drink whiskey and children drink milk is a fairly common trope but these characters defy the trope. I think the juxtaposition is meant to accentuate just how twisted they are.

      @@keenanchalmers7478 I haven't seen A Team but that would make sense. I think drinking milk has been shown to have minimal affect on bone strength, but it is a popular trope.
      Depending on BA's character, it may still be making a joke about how a really tough guy loves to drink milk.

    My favorite thing about the scene is the switch to Engliish. As a viewer you're probably thinking, as I did, Taratino just doesn't want a long, dialogue-heavy scene subtitled.
    And then when he switches back to French at the end you realize it was a deliberate choice by Hans so that the family hiding couldn't know what he and the farmer were talking about.

    I actually watched this film for a Film class in college earlier this year.
    It wasn't my first time watching it, mind you, but I did watch it, and we talked about this scene specifically, and it's probably my favorite one of the whole movie.
    Quentin Tarantino, in "Inglorious Bastards" more than any other movie, basically mastered the "Bomb Under the Table" example that Alfred Hitchcock used to explain how Suspense can really enhance a scene. You COULD have two characters speaking at a table and then a bomb goes off under the table and surprise your audience, but it's such a fleeting emotion. Instead, you show the bomb under the table, and then you cut back to the character's talking, and now you could have them do it for 30 more seconds or 2 full minutes, and with each second, the audience gets more more anxious because they KNOW the explosion is coming.
    This scene with Wanda just takes that concept and executes it PERFECTLY.

    Another thing you should've point out in his level of villainy is that he didn't even bother to pull them out. Shooting them through the floor takes away their dignity as human beings and also leaves the man with the mess to clean up himself later. The corpses with terrified, betrayed faces. The floor with evidence of a massacre. This in itself was probably done on purpose as a message: If you're caught harboring rats, either die with them or live wishing you were dead. This man will never have a restful sleep again and will probably end up killing himself in the end. I know I couldn't live with the guilt.
    As a side note, I'd like to point out the scene of the interrogation itself. I think the lighting for it was purposefully done to let the audience know this isn't some unexpected visit. This is an interrogation. When you think interrogation, you think bright light and a small table. The interrogator sitting calm, the suspect sweating and looking nervous (unless he's a cold bastard). Tarantino is a very brilliant man.

    Not going to lie, when I first saw this movie, it was the most boring thing I'd ever experienced. I knew things were off, but I could not figure out where it was going. Then they showed the people under the floorboards, and I almost cried out of shock. It is now one of my favorite scenes in movies, and I almost cannot bear to watch it again. It's just so good.

    What always struck me is when the farmer pulls out his little corncob pip, and then to like display his authority and to impose his presence on him he pulls out this giant oversized horn pipe. Like "You pleb this is gulf between us"

    A few fun bits about the scene. When Hans grabs the farmer's daughter's wrist, he's checking her pulse. He figured they would be a bit nervous, but he still wanted to see how nervous the family was. He also drinks the milk like he does to force the family to start on his time. When he pulls his pipe out, that's the same style of pipe that Sherlock Holmes tends to use. He's basically saying, "Case closed." It also serves the dual-function of asserting his dominance as if to say, "mine's bigger than yours." I will give the farmer credit, he held out well, but Hans was just better. I will say, with this scene, the scene with Shoshana in the café, and the scene with the German actress, I kinda like to play the game of, "When does Hand Landa know?" In this case, he probably knows at the very start. He just chooses to play with his food

    Someone got Landa. The movie has its flaws but Landa is not one of them. The perfect villain in my opinion. A balance of civility and savagery. Every aspect of that opening scene makes the viewer as uncomfortable as he is sitting across from Landa. When the reality hits we know things are going sideways. I would love to see a part 2 with his encounter with Shoshana in the cafe. There's a lot going on there too.

    For me it's the scene where he struggles Shoshanna. It's just so brutal and bestial way to kill a person. Especially from a man who gets off and gets by on playing subtle mind games. You would expect him to just come to Shoshana to explain to her that she never had a chance and had become his pawn in his set up of the high command before shooting her or perhaps stabbing. But no, no quick cold use of weapon, he throttles her with his bare hands!

    but hans does not enjoy killing jews in particular, nor killing, he is a confident, intelligent, talkative opportunist who takes pride in his job and successes(dialogue between the two bastards tied to a chair and hans) , he is hardly a the villain of the at all objetively, since he is responsible for the end of ww2 in this timeline, and the bastards are portraid as ignorants, violents sent to die under the leadership of a drug addict, and ultimately end up killing basically only men following orders and kids who just mandatorily joined the army (exemplified by the scene where a nazi captain is killed by a baseball). Ultimately the bastards are compleately useless to the resolution of the movie, since everything is done by hans and shoshanna, and most of them end up dying for nothing. So yes, Hans is the villain of the story, but in reality he is just a smart guy adapting to his surroundings, unemphatetic and amoral, for sure, but not necessarily evil.
    The only thing that is questionable about his behaviour is the homicide of the actress by his own hands, but I personally think that this is the result of his immense pride in doing his job(she was not a jew, and he was alreandy planning on betraing his country, so it didn't make any logical sense). So i'd say it's more of an obsession than just evil of the sake of it.
