Idk if that’s really the way british people show hand gestures but I can with 100% certainty say that no german would do that, brilliant attention to detail by tarantino.

See 'A Hidden Life' movie, where he outstandingly plays a very opposite character.

Totally agree. I've seen this scene multiple times, and his acting is sublime.

@@IgorFoukzon Man I love that movie...

He's such a great actor, that he does for this scene, that's why you haven't seen him in other roles

He's in Salt - AnJo's husband.

he didn't have to do anything. He could left he planned to, leave the bar and have about 20 germans soldiers show up. Furthermore, even if the basterds would have left that bar, their plan wouldn't have worked at the cinema.

@@Andrei-oj1jz Now that would be boring. Old school Tarantino doesn’t do boring.

@@Andrei-oj1jz he actually thought that fassbender was the only one who was a spy and the other 2 sitting on the table will be on his side. Thats why he was surprised when another guy put his gun on his crotch.

@@Call-me-Avi damn that makes sense

@@Call-me-Avi That makes sense. The only reason he raised the stink in the first place was because he thought he had the upper hand, not because he was suicidal. However, he fucked up

It‘s not because of that. There is a big amount of videos on yt explaining this scene. He figured out that they were not germans even before, while playing this game with guessing words. The look on his face is his anger, because of such an explicit, inaccurate move, which every qualified spy would never do (they had to be prepared to that in us). He put so much effort in exposing them, and now they undermine his intelligence with that silly move. Smart people are usually arrogant, and it pisses them off when people do not treat their intellect correspondingly. This look threw him out of his patience. Otherwise, he would’ve made everything much clearer. Might be wrong tho

@@nurbekkhazhimurat3038 You can see the way the major's face drops immediately when he sees the hand gesture. I'm very confident he was convinced until that moment.

@@domskillet5744 his face was dropped because of anger and disappointment, imho

if you're german like us then you'll understand the scene exactly. it's just because of the fingers. in germany you use the thumb and index finger, middle finger. everything else is nonsense. as a nazi, the major would have shot immediately if he had recognized the enemy

@@nurbekkhazhimurat3038i haven’t seen any videos explaining this scene but it’s one of my favorites in this movie and I’ve seen it so many times over, I won’t go so much into it but it’s my opinion that he bought their story but his instincts still told him something was up, it was a very tricky situation they found themselves in as refusing to allow a major of the German army to join them would of seem very odd but also insulting so they were forced at that point to play along this gave the major an opportunity to sit and through communication pick up any cues and information needed for him to weed them out. Here the game they play also plays and important and symbolic role as even though fassbenders character proclaims he is a Germán movie aficionado earlier on and falsely claims to be a young movie star himself he could of stumbled with being able to figure out the character assigned to him by the major which would of been way too suspicious to the major. Who knows if the captain figured this out and decided to stop the game there and then but one thing to notice that makes me believe that the major hadn’t made up his mind about what he believed was going on was the clear change in demeanor and attitude when finally coming to the one thing that finally confirms his suspicions, the hand gesture, he decides to humiliate them by making them toast to the German reich and confronts them there. In the game he’s King Kong when he drinks he mentions he grows weary of these “monkeyshines” affirming to the rest that he’s in control there and not them. Apologies for such long paragraph just some things I took from this scene.

Fassbender was smooth with it

What did he mean by that?

@@whysoserious286 he’s saying I hope you don’t mind if I drop the act and use my native accent/ first language since they’ve already been caught and are about to die.

I agree, you can see in his eyes that he knows he isn’t walking out of there alive

@@ehsan_iq he thought the captain was the only spy and the other people at the table as well the other soldiers in the room were on his side. He is smart but the film implies that he's second to Landa, who would've probably been more cautious and done something similar to what you said.

should've just left and called the SS, but he figured there was just one spy and him killing/taking him would get him a promotion.

That makes 2 scenes in this movie, the around 12ish minute long opening could easily stand alone as it’s own opening. I could be tripping, it could be way longer. One could even make the case that the bear Jew scene serves as a one off short story as well😭 I completely understand when people say this is tarantino’s masterpiece

I agree, he could have passed as Swiss, too, like he was trying to. On the other hand, why didn't he just claim to be from the Englisch Legion of the Waffen SS, then he wouldn't have had to lie about being swiss.

Yeah, im from southern Germany, if you told me that’s what someone from South Tyrol sounded like I would believe it

@@mort7987 Can you comment any more about his accent? Is his accent "off" enough that you would instantly think he's not German? For example, would it be the same as if an American heard someone from England or Australia? They are both English, but British and Australian have clear thick accent differences. Is it the same for Fassbender here?

@@conker206 yes, as a german you recognize that he is definitely not from germany itself but very likely a german-speaking country with a dialect.

Knew*

Fassbender/Hicox messed up there again but I don't blame them - the toast, familiar to the German army, wouldn't be something a non-native speaker would usually say but, like all toasts in Germany, you should be making eye contact with the toaster before drinking. That's why the Gestapo agent looks at everyone before drinking and notices that Fassbender/Hicox doesn't look at him before drinking.

German 0:11 who Looks Good in jetBlack vs. jealous UKukrainianHorseheads , As such I'm For The German Of Course

It's not even just that she senses something is wrong. Remember, her character here is native, and at 1:46 you can see her eyes immediately lock onto Hicox's hand when he holds up three fingers, and her expression drops. Just like the major, she already knows it's over and they've been made. She's just waiting to see what he'll do about it, and desperately hoping they can still somehow walk out of that bar.

​@@yfnspiderAs are the other two Basterds in the party if I remember correctly, so everyone except maybe Hicox himself knew the charade was over for sure. And the Major knew they knew that he knew, so he knew there was no leaving quietly and coming back with reinforcements.

in the military, I think soldiers are trained to take deep breaths when under stress in order to pump blood into the brain, helping them to assess the situation before making any decision on their next move

Exactly. Knowing something for so long gives a big advantage over unaware and drunk people.

You'd be surprised. In real life, things would likely escalate quickly, no time for snarky words in a gunfight. Shit goes down quickly.

@@SStupendous I think that's the point of the comment, things would go down so quickly that some of these guys wouldn't even know what hit them.

not really, they are trained soldiers. They aren't ur regular alcoholic uncles down the streets

@@HaPham-jn7jk Right, so I was a trained soldier and spent quite a bit of time around drunken soldiers and no, they don't size up situations in a drunken haze far rapidly than your average boozer. Certainly not as fast as depicted in this scene. And especially not if it was a bunch of officers and a celebrity who suddenly started killing each other. They wouldn't know what was going on. Though the last guy spraying down the entire bar indiscriminately is probably something that might happen, though much slower.

The realization of the imminent defeat of Germany made the life of the ideological Nazi Hellstrom meaningless and pushed him to play with death.

In real life, yes.....in a movie.....this is much more fun!

If he do that, is dead at momment he left the pub. Fassbender have follow him and kill it.

Hammersmark and Stiglitz would have noticed it due to the gesture of the 3 glasses and executed him as soon as he walked out.

Its only a movie. In Real life it was way more difficult to kill The nazis.

*Gestapo Major

It actually wasn't the moment when he gave himseld away, SS dude knew it from the beginning. The moment you are talking about is more about being offended of how stupid he gave himself away. This gesture is the first thing he should know when becoming a spy and he messed this up. Whole drinking with them was about trying to get more information about them and their plans by talking and getting them drunk. Maybe he would even walk away to get some help to capture them but this gesture made him furious and he decided to finish it by himself

@@slav335 yes it was the moment. why is this even a debate

You see a similar look from the Nazi earlier too. Great acting and directing.

This bothered me too. I mean why risk going to the tavern in the first place. Stiglitz is already well known. How is he not immediately recognized by at least the Gestapo Major?! And if you've been watching the tavern with only one entrance and exit, how did you miss a uniformed Gestapo officer entering the tavern? How did you miss the group of German soldiers already there. You mean to tell me the Basterds who are so well hidden inside occupied France didn't recee the spot of meeting?! And they did mention that it was stupid to fight inside a basement. That would make it all the more obvious that they would scope the place out much more thoroughly from there just over the street, inconspicuous hideout.

@@luckyeddy350 because false information is common you know when supposed message to get into a person it changed every subject everytime passed especially at ww2 era,i think the intelligence didnt gather enough information because the place itself remote or not important for strategic link or communication so they dont have time to scoop around gathering information and about enemy personal

@@emendewo3387 Clearly didn't get the point, Stiglitz has a high risk of being recognized, and leaving quickly looks sus

As I remember, Bridget mentioned in the movie that the owner of the tavern was a group member of French resistance, and tavern was meant to be a safe place. Although, basterds also said several times that it was a bad and dangerous pick for a meeting.

@@lll-qr4yu looks like she was wrong about that too, the bartender clearly took a shot at one of the basterds

crash zooms - tarantino loves them

It's so bad.

I'm trying to learn German, it's sounds cool when germans speak it, but as a non german trying to correctly pronounce the words seems impossible... I didn't had this problem when learning English. The th was the most difficult part, but in german, everything is difficult lol

@@Toven_WaveWatcherFi they most certainly have unique words for their military ranks, unlike any other language's words for military rank.

Who would think that German is an ugly language? Simpletons, that's who...

As a Dutch guy we tend to say that German is like speaking Dutch aggressively and with your mouth full of potato. So yeah, it's definitely an ugly language. But most Germans think the same of the Dutch language, so I guess that's fair. At the end of the day it doesn't say anything about the person himself and we just use it jokingly. In most cases the Dutch and Germans get along pretty well.

Happens when a British Bulldog tries to play Black Man. Next time they better play Red Rover all together.

SAMEE :(

Spies and traitors deserve the rope

Lol why? They are all murderers.

The mistake he made was calling out the private for interrupting. Had he kept a low profile they might have been able to carry out the rest of the operation without any trouble. The second thing was the lack familiarity he had for the way Germans interact with one another, not knowing that Germans use a different hand signal for three was the one small yet fatal flaw in his masquerade.

u Talkin' about University of Chicago Psych. Dept.?

I mean, duh. The nazi party was huge, everyone knows that. The SS officer and Landa show that they're extremely competent at their job and should be feared any time they appear on screen. Like any other well-acted and well written villain.

He suspected them too and then when the captain gave himself away he knew they were all in on it. A dead giveway for that is that he tells Bridget to "shut up bitch" straight after the captain gives himself away when she tries to say something. As soon as he knew the captain was a spy, he knew the others were with him. At the very least he was sure she was in on it. Maybe not Hugo. He was just willing to take the risk and wasn't going to let the both the captain or especially Bridget Von Hammersmark get away. He had numbers on his side in the pub even if all 3 other people at the table were against him. And yes he could tell the subtle differences in German dialects and could tell when someone's German was 'off'. He is highly intelligent but it doesn't take much intelligence to recognise the hand gesture difference, that would hardly be subtle to any German.

Dude, he knew this guy was not what he said he was right at the beginning - the odds of someone making Captain from a strange town in the middle of nowhere when a secret police's job is to know who's in town AND him not knowing that such a guy exists is odd. It's like an FBI agent in a bar in Washington talking to a group of armed forces sitting at a table with a famous actress and a Navy Captain - in full uniform - is speaking in a strange New York/Texan accent (I am British and native speakers could pull apart what people thought back home was a good American accent) and says he is from a rustic town in Oaklahoma during WW2.
