I noticed you corrected the spelling of "basterd"....... my internal spellcheck keeps wanting to do that too ;)
ReplyDeleteAha, but the quote in question comes from a deleted scene in the film, in which a woman utters that sentence to Donny Donowitz before the Basterds are formed (and implying that this is the origin of their name) in a flashback sequence. So she was specifically saying "bastards" as in the common vernacular, not "Basterds".

ReplyDeleteThe misspellings of both titular words may serve to differentiate Tarantino's Basterds from this film: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Inglorious_Bastards

However, "The title of the film was inspired by the English title of director Enzo Castellari's 1978 war film, The Inglorious Bastards.[17][18] When asked for an explanation of the film's title spelling during a news conference at the Cannes Film Festival, Tarantino said, "I'm never going to explain that".[19] When pushed on it, Tarantino would not explain the first u in Inglourious, but said, "The Basterds? That's just the way you say it: Basterds."[18][20] Tarantino later stated in an interview that the misspelled title is "a Basquiat-esque touch."[21] He further commented on Late Show with David Letterman that Inglourious Basterds is the "Tarantino way of spelling it."[22]
