Wow, that trailer is one of the most frustrating and disturbing things I’ve seen in a while. Leave it to Tarantino to turn the Holocaust into a popcorn flick.
@Rich – Two things: a) it’s not about the Holocaust; and b) I can only think of a handful of WWII movies that aren’t popcorn flicks. You yeah, I guess my admonition is Don’t get upset about business as usual as though it’s not just business as usual.
