Glourious Tarantino
Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglourious Basterds” is up for eight Oscars. Though far-fetched (it features Jewish-American GIs taking Nazi scalps), some would say it’s his least gory picture yet. Kurt talks to Tarantino about his influences, from Leni Riefenstahl to Stan Lee’s “Sergeant Fury.”
