Inglorious Bastards (2009)
Written and directed by Quentin Tarantino
*SPOILER FREE
Once upon a time in Nazi-occupied France there was an artist, a filmmaker from the 21st century (from the 21st century in Nazi-occupied France?) - yes, he came in no peace as a time traveler to rewrite history and make it right... I think this just might be Tarantino's "masterpiece"!
