The german actor playing the captain, is such a good actor. The reaction at the hand sign is soo good. You can just see his thoughts racing and his emotions shift as he is slowly realizing the situation he is in, before everybody else. Capturing the emotions of: suprise, disbelief, dissapointment, anger and fear and then anger. It is some of the best acting and soo underrated.

It‘s not because of that. There is a big amount of videos on yt explaining this scene. He figured out that they were not germans even before, while playing this game with guessing words. The look on his face is his anger, because of such an explicit, inaccurate move, which every qualified spy would never do (they had to be prepared to that in us). He put so much effort in exposing them, and now they undermine his intelligence with that silly move. Smart people are usually arrogant, and it pisses them off when people do not treat their intellect correspondingly. This look threw him out of his patience.

@@nurbekkhazhimurat3038i haven’t seen any videos explaining this scene but it’s one of my favorites in this movie and I’ve seen it so many times over, I won’t go so much into it but it’s my opinion that he bought their story but his instincts still told him something was up, it was a very tricky situation they found themselves in as refusing to allow a major of the German army to join them would of seem very odd but also insulting so they were forced at that point to play along this gave the major an opportunity to sit and through communication pick up any cues and information needed for him to weed them out. Here the game they play also plays and important and symbolic role as even though fassbenders character proclaims he is a Germán movie aficionado earlier on and falsely claims to be a young movie star himself he could of stumbled with being able to figure out the character assigned to him by the major which would of been way too suspicious to the major. Who knows if the captain figured this out and decided to stop the game there and then but one thing to notice that makes me believe that the major hadn’t made up his mind about what he believed was going on was the clear change in demeanor and attitude when finally coming to the one thing that finally confirms his suspicions, the hand gesture, he decides to humiliate them by making them toast to the German reich and confronts them there. In the game he’s King Kong when he drinks he mentions he grows weary of these “monkeyshines” affirming to the rest that he’s in control there and not them. Apologies for such long paragraph just some things I took from this scene.

You have to appreciate the class here though. Man knows he's done. The Major knows he's going to win even if he dies because the spy will die. But their is still time for a smoke and a drink.

The second thing was the lack familiarity he had for the way Germans interact with one another, not knowing that Germans use a different hand signal for three was the one small yet fatal flaw in his masquerade.

To anyone who doesn't understand. When the captain said three glasses and held up three fingers he held up his index, middle and ring finger. In Germany they hold up their thumb index and middle finger so doing it wrong revealed that he's not really German.

Dialogue in most films are expository, telling you something rather than showing something, which can lead to static and boring scenes. Quentin Tarantino excels at writing compelling dramatic dialogue that move the drama forward. He is a genius director, but perhaps more importantly, he is a genius screenwriter.

i remember watching this in the movies and realizing the captain put up 3 the wrong way immediately. only reason i knew was because of Dirk Nowitzki and the hand gesture he did when he made a 3 pointer

I just love this whole sequence, the way it unfolds is just brilliant, starts off pretty lively and then you start feeling a strange sense of unease when the drunken soldier keeps interrupting the infiltrated agents’ conversation with Diane Kruger’s character. And for anyone who thinks that German is an ugly language, better check this scene out, I particularly love the way Diane speaks :)

As a Dutch guy we tend to say that German is like speaking Dutch aggressively and with your mouth full of potato. So yeah, it's definitely an ugly language. But most Germans think the same of the Dutch language, so I guess that's fair. At the end of the day it doesn't say anything about the person himself and we just use it jokingly. In most cases the Dutch and Germans get along pretty well.

Love every scene in this movie. A masterpiece of writing.

1:49 I just noticed the detail that when Archie does the “three” signal with his hand, right before the cut to the SS major, you can see that Hammersmark looks at his hand noticing that he didn’t do the right gesture, she knew that Archie gave himself away.

Tarantino by "far" has the best local details in Hollywood, if you can consider him part of Hollywood at all. Amazing attention to those things and a joy to watch every detail in his movies.

This movie is a masterpiece , i could listen to it 2-3 times a year since its release and always liking it as much asi did the times before .

I actually absolutely love the idea that in this movie there is not only Landa, but also other, slightly less competent high-ranking Nazi sadists who play a similar role and who also play a significant role for the plot. Shows that Landa is not some lone crazy psychopath but instead part of a much larger, sinister system.

Tarantino is one of the best director's, ever to come out of Hollywood. And he is not shy on ,long scenes of dialogue. Which suits me just fine. Match that up with his quirky take on history, and criminals. And add in a generous heap of ultra cool music, some great violence, humour. And you have a masterful story teller. Right up there with Kubrick.

Outstanding scene. One of the greatest movie in the last 30 years. I loved that Hugo Stiglitz.

You know what makes a ton of sense? Use your small hideout apartment to overlook the public tavern where you'll meet your ally. NEVER, EVER, invite the ally to come to the small hideout apartment so no one in public could see you. You definitely want that public space for the meeting. You would never want to meet them in an unimportant disposable private space you have nearby.

This bothered me too. I mean why risk going to the tavern in the first place. Stiglitz is already well known. How is he not immediately recognized by at least the Gestapo Major?! And if you've been watching the tavern with only one entrance and exit, how did you miss a uniformed Gestapo officer entering the tavern? How did you miss the group of German soldiers already there. You mean to tell me the Basterds who are so well hidden inside occupied France didn't recee the spot of meeting?! And they did mention that it was stupid to fight inside a basement. That would make it all the more obvious that they would scope the place out much more thoroughly from there just over the street, inconspicuous hideout.

Being German, I gotta tell you, how much I love, how perfect the German in this movie is!!!

I like how Quentin used scilence in this moves, The opening scene with lapedit. The strudel scene with Shoshana And this bar scene. You feel the same tension as the guys in the scene as if it is you being interrogated.

Phenomenal acting by everyone involved. Tarantino knows how to get the best out of his people

It wasn’t a horror movie but the sheer terror you feel keeps you on edge the length of the film

1:50 The German is like; well, well, English spy with the wrong hand gesture...

So let me get this straight: That SD Major is so intelligent, he can recognize all german accents, he spots flaws in their stories and exposes a british spy just by looking at the way he points the number 3 with his fingers, but yet it did not come to his mind, not even a little, that the other 3 people at the table might be spys as well and could intervene with his arrest?

@JimmyTowz

Жыл бұрын

He suspected them too and then when the captain gave himself away he knew they were all in on it. A dead giveway for that is that he tells Bridget to "shut up bitch" straight after the captain gives himself away when she tries to say something. As soon as he knew the captain was a spy, he knew the others were with him. At the very least he was sure she was in on it. Maybe not Hugo. He was just willing to take the risk and wasn't going to let the both the captain or especially Bridget Von Hammersmark get away. He had numbers on his side in the pub even if all 3 other people at the table were against him. And yes he could tell the subtle differences in German dialects and could tell when someone's German was 'off'. He is highly intelligent but it doesn't take much intelligence to recognise the hand gesture difference, that would hardly be subtle to any German.

You said it right there in the first part of your response he's in the SD, the SS intelligence branch, it's his job to notice and figure out things like that, just like Hans Landa.

“Well old boy, if this is it…” so good

the face he makes when he notices the 3 fingers is perfect

I almost wish I was German so I would’ve gotten this scene immediately, with that “oh SHIT” moment coming right as his eyes locked on his fingers. Best part of Tarantino films. Many things and scenes that if you didn’t have previous knowledge would make absolutely zero sense without the context. Same with the OD in Pulp Fiction. Had no idea she snorted heroin and not coke, making it go from “wait, she OD’d on one little sniff?!” To “ohhhhhhh......OHHHHHHHH.....”

this scene is inspired by the poison scene from the japanese movie"Battle Royale" one of Tarantino's favorite movies of all time

For me the greatest movie scene of the 21st century. Truly masterful.

3:24 that’s a real man

1:50 отличная игра актёра. Долгий взгляд и целая гамма эмоций. Браво!

Fassbender's subtle look of 'oh fuck...' from the OTS shot at 1:49 adds so much more to the intensity watching how he feels hoping he could get out of the mess alive before being fully exposed.

Me to Tarantino - I must say damn good stuff Sir!

Acting....Tension...Dialogues....All is a masterpiece....

This twenty minute scene of dialogue is what inspired me to get into German, this is so beautifully acted. And seeing American pull off a German accent and their language with such fluency really inspired me. Plus I have to respect Tarantino for the dialogue, not many writers can make a scene that long so interesting, plus he ends it off with a spectacular bang. That ending clip is so sporadic you can barely tell who is shooting who. But I guess one thing is for sure, say goodbye to those Nazi balls.

2:06 absolutely brilliant! That quick nod to "yes I'll have a shot but I know things are out of my control after I drink it". Stunning

Appreciate the detail that was a dead give away. Germans and English count their fingers quite differently. One for German is when you use your thumb. When you use 3, your thumb, index and middle finger is up it's funny my left hand is well coordinated to do three in German, but my right hand just can't. It can barely do the English 3 easily. I have to use my thumb to hold down my pinky. 😂😂
