- Differs from a traditional war film- removes traditional aspects and adds humour
- No fear within the film- quite comical
- David Bowie song was released after a long period of time after the film was set- out of the time period- quite unusual
- Opening scene is very similar to The Sound Of Music (French dairy farm)- it is very subtle and goes deep into intertextuality
- On screen text- colourful, isn't shown on conventional war films- used to identify certain characters- cartoon effect
- Film within a film (links to Inception)
- Tarantino's foot fetish- Cinderella shoe- a fairytale element
- Chapters- all with different fonts
- Frederick Jameson- 'historical deafness'
Inception
- Manipulation of time and space- dream within a dream
- Real world slows down, in the dream state time becomes quicker
- Disrupts linear structure
- Mixes up time and space
- What happens in the space that only takes a few minutes is stretched to hours for the audience
- Not being able to distinguish between what is real and what is a dream- 'hyperreality'- cannot differentiate the differences
- 'Inception'- planting an idea into someones head- puts in the audiences head whether or not they are in a dream- it questions reality
- Jacques Derrida- "The centre doesn't exist naturally, but rather because we need it to, in order to make sense of the world around us".
