what is the full list? I can't access uteeb right now.
Battle Royale and Memories of a Murder are oriental mainstream films with its stylistic appeals and engaging narrative, the sort of films I could imagine being endorsed under "QT presents" and/or dvd introduction by QT. Audition is brilliant, and audaciously made trademark Miike gory-horror. I remember JSA, made by director of 'Oldboy' (a film more likely to be found in QT's list) but I prefer another film on Korean divides, Taegukgi.
Matrix should make into such lists, it shouldn't be treated as a surprise. I don't know how Wachowski brothers could have rewritten the next two parts. Reloaded is better than Revolutions as a singular film, but I believe the trilogy as such is excellent work. Fight club, it withered down in my estimation, but I could see why he'd have gone for it. Unbreakable is a brilliant film, it's Manoj Night's best as Pr has put it. Anything Else is nothing great, from my memory. I'd have to revisit it.

1. An lonely teenaged girl who just saw the murders of her family right in front of her eyes. I remember reading that Landa telling it to his driver that the surroundings itself would kill her or she would itself die from the trauma. She is nothing but a harmless insect(to him) but he is proven wrong at the end.
(I Vaguely remember reading this from the original script that was leaked).
He definitely doesn't recognize her in the restaurant and even when he stops Melanie he says that he forgot what he wanted to ask her eventually saying that whatever he wanted to ask would have been something very trivial.
2. Even I have the same question. My only answer is he wants to surpass/supercede her in his negotiation with the Basterd's Top Command. That's the only possible idea that i could come up with.

Liked the film better but don't think it's as good as PF/KB. The film is so not about the basterds. In fact the basterds were the weak links if I may say so. The trailer was sort of deceptive. When I saw it for the first time I thought saaptars 3 and 4 were a little boring but liked them this time around. First chapter was amazing. Those 15 minutes, I don't know what was happening to me. I mean I could not take my eyes off the screen. Very very arresting. Only Tarantino fossible. And the tension he builds up in chapters 4 and the climax

Absolutely agree about the basterds link being the weakest. Matha thread'la irundha tension and drama idhula illa.
1. It is difficult to say why. As Feddy says, he perhaps thought it below him to kill a teenager. Andha restaurant scene is a bit of a puzzle. He does seem to pause at the most important moment and then continues as if he couldn't be bothered. My thought is, he has conducted his own investigations into her background and must have had his doubts. Milk is more like his trademark, I think, much like our protagonist in Clockwork.. (in fact, Kubrick would have been proud of the first scene ). Or perhaps it is just a plot device to build more tension into the scene
2. The interrogation of Kruger is perhaps one of my favourite scenes in the movie. What an evil twist to the Cindrella story . Why does he kill her? Perhaps because he thought she was dispensible at that point (the allies have already landed in France and the end is near). And also because he was annoyed that she thought she could get away with her lies.
"Why do we need filmmaking equipment?"
"Because, Marcel, my sweet, we're going to make a film. Just for the Nazis."
