Thesis

The Tarantino films, Django Unchained (2012) and Inglorious Basterds (2009) are similar and recognisable through terms of the themes and style that the films tackle. Both films are based around a historical event or situation. Due to being independent, the themes and style that they tackle subvert and challenge a mainstream film culture, often resulting with the oppressed protagonist, becoming the oppressor; questioning the dominant historical narrative, offering a new perspective and subverting the dominant views.
