The movie Inglorious Basterds is a fairy tale for all Jews. Killing off the Nazi's and getting revenge on the German citizens is what this movie is about. There is no main character in the movie. All the roles are very important. Regardless of this, my favorite character is Shoshanna Dreyfus. Shoshanna Dreyfus is a strong and powerful woman. With hatred and vengeance in her heart from the murderer of her family, Shoshanna is out for Nazi blood. Despite this, she moves forward and escapes to Paris where she inherits a movie theater. She never really hides, but knows that she must keep a low profile and even though its challenging, must start a new life. This is a great trait because it shows how strong she truly is and I admire this trait. I also admire how she turns down the German soldier Zoller. Still not giving up, Zoller persuaded Goebbels to move the premier of his movie to her theatre in hoping to have a chance with Shoshanna. Little did Zoller know and Goebbels know, this was Shoshanna's perfect chance to get revenge on all Nazis.
The scene that represents the major theme of the movie is when Shoshanna shoots Zoller. In this scene, Shoshanna is shown as a sensitive person, her emotions are shown which has not happened in the whole movie. In the beginning, the camera is looking up at her which portrays her as a powerful, strong and an assurance appeal. But after she shoots him, he emotions change from confident to unsure and sad. As the whole mood in the movie changes, she empathizes and second guess her action and bends down to help him. As she does this, he turn around and shoots her. The scene ends with both of them dying. Even though she is dead, her goal is still accomplished.
Do not use an adverb clause with the verb to be. Do not say is when. You also need to do more mise en scene analysis about the dominant, about lighting, and about character proxemics.
