    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Quentin Tarantino originally intended to only have Pai Mei's lips speaking Cantonese, while his voice would be in English, imitating a bad dub job. Tarantino was going to provide the voice himself. In the end, Tarantino abandoned this idea, and Pai Mei (Chia-Hui Liu) speaks in his own voice.
    • Goofs
      Budd shot Bea with a load of rock salt in the chest, and blew a hole in her clothes and chest and bloodied her clothes and chest. By the time Bea made it back to the trailer, the blood and mess were gone and no wound existed in her chest.
    • Quotes

      Bill: Pai Mei taught you the five point palm-exploding heart technique?

      The Bride: Of course he did.

      Bill: Why didn't you tell me?

      The Bride: I don't know... because I'm a bad person.

      Bill: No. You're not a bad person. You're a terrific person. You're my favorite person, but every once in a while, you can be a real cunt.

    • Crazy credits
      During the (second) end credits, as the names of actors in the Deadly Viper Assasination Squad roll by, a line is drawn through each like Black Mamba did on her "Death List 5" after she killed them. Daryl Hannah is one exception; she has a question mark drawn over her name. The other exception is David Carradine's name - his name appears after Uma's in this set of end credits but does NOT get crossed out.
    • Alternate versions
      Hong Kong version differs very slightly from the US version. The only difference is that some alternate shots were used in the scene where Beatrix drives to Esteban and the scene where she finally goes to him in the village.

    Beyond the action
    For many, Tarantino can perceive as a director of action because of his usage blood -In special of this film they used 450 gallons of blood- or strong violent scenes. But because of his professional background, he is also cinephilé. In this movie we can see every elements of "pure Tarantino". In one hand, it's pure action movie -especially vol 1.- but on the other hand, It's combination and reinterpretation of B type movies. Especially we can see his homage to Sergieo Leone and Asian cinema or culture. However this movie to me interrogate more important point than revenge. It's motherhood. We can see behind every struggle Beatrix puts we see the protection of the child. To make sense of the movie, I prefer to attribute it to motherhood.
