We all know that Quentin Tarantino is an audacious filmmaker. If there’s a genre of filmmaking that he loves, he will produce his take on it at some point – and he really, really loves spaghetti westerns.

I just watched the Original Inglourious Bastards on DVD last week and enjoyed the heck out of it.
