Inglourious Basterds takes place in war-raged Europe and follows a Nazi-scalping squad of Jewish-American soldiers, known to their enemy as "The Basterds," and led by Lieutenant Aldo Raine (Pitt). While conducting their mission to take down the leaders of the Third Reich, Raine's squad joins German actress and undercover agent Bridget von Hammersmark (Kruger). As the mission advances, the group is unexpectedly aided by Shosanna Drefus (Laurent), who as a young girl witnesses the execution of her family at the hand of Nazi Colonel Hans Landa (Waltz). Shosanna narrowly escapes and flees to Paris where she forges a new identity as the owner and operator of a cinema. Fates converge at the Paris cinema, where Shosanna is poised to carry out a revenge plan of her own, and as for "The Basterds," well, they never take prisoners. (Gary Reber)
