Kill Bill 1, Death Proof, Pulp Fiction, Hateful 8, Reservoir dogs, Once upon a time in Hollywood. Inglorious Basterds. Django Unchained. Jackie Brown. Q is my all time favorite
If you're wondering what song is plays as soon as Beatrice calls out oren ishii its called Death Rides a Horse composed by the legendary ennio morricone
I love EVERYTHING about this scene. The music building to a crescendo, the business owners placating & being humiliated by Oren Ishii’s entourage, every actor here is exactly on point & they're all wonderful, the costumes that all seem like homages to various American, French & Japanese films, the gorgeous set so perfect for a dance floor & then a massive martial arts battle. The zooms to the eyes, the two beautiful women in the middle of so much death, the exaggerated martial arts sound effects. All of it works!! I've always felt, more than any other Tarantino film, that Kill Bill One is about the pure kinetic thrill of cinema without almost anything else being involved
So much to say about this fuckin scene it's ridiculous!!!! Loooove When she calls out to Oren bold asf ready to battle and did it in her language to make it absolutely clear her purpose! Her cutting Sophie's arm to let everyone know she meant business. The look in Oren's eyes when her name is first called and when she first sees Beatrix...the song... everything!!!!!!!! Oren recognized that same revenge in Beatrix that she herself had as a child and knew shit was goonna get real. Beatrix knew exactly how many people she had to go up against and still showed up! Its subtle but that had Oren shook 😂😂
What I love about this scene is that only two types of people would be willing to call out a Triad boss surrounded by deadly henchmen. Either someone who's batshit insane or someone who you truly don't want to fuck with! The look on her goon's faces tell you they know the Bride is the latter!
