    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      When Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio) smashes his hand on the dinner-table, DiCaprio did accidentally crush a small stemmed glass with his palm and did really begin to bleed. He ignored it, stayed in character, and continued with the scene. Quentin Tarantino was so impressed that he used this take in the final print, and when he called cut, the room erupted in a standing ovation. DiCaprio's hand was bandaged, and he suggested the idea of smearing blood onto the face of Kerry Washington. Tarantino and Washington both liked this, so Tarantino got some fake blood together.
    • Goofs
      Dynamite was not invented until 1867 (by the Swede Alfred Nobel), while this film features it on several occasions and is set in 1858.

      Dr. King Schultz: [aiming .45-70 rifle at fleeing Ellis Brittle] You sure that's him?

      Django: Yeah.

      Dr. King Schultz: Positive?

      Django: I don't know.

      Dr. King Schultz: You don't know if you're positive?

      Django: I don't know what 'positive' means.

      Dr. King Schultz: It means you're sure.

      Django: Yes.

      Dr. King Schultz: Yes, what?

      Django: Yes, I'm sure that's Ellis Brittle.

      [Schultz shoots Brittle off his horse]

      Django: I'm positive he dead.

    • Crazy credits
      There is a small additional scene with the 3 men in a cage at the very end of the credits.
    • Alternate versions
      One cut was made by the CBFC to only remove nudity and added a scrolling anti-smoking disclaimer to pass the film with an 'A' (18+ adults only) rating.

    Unmistakable Tarantino
    Dr. King Schultz (Christoph Waltz) is a bounty hunter. To identify his next catch, he tries to purchase Django (Jamie Foxx). Thing go all wrong Tarantino style. The two become friends and Dr Schultz decide on a plan to free Django's wife Broomhilda (Kerry Washington) from a notorious plantation owner Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio).

    This is Quentin Tarantino all the way. His style has become as unique & original as they come. There is no mistaking it for another. It's the music, the violence, the visuals, the black humor, and the subject matter. This is all Tarantino. If there is one complain, it's the double climax. While I understand the need for a happy Hollywood ending, it would have been better to have 1 big gun fight and just finish with it. Not that big of a deal. Certainly it's still a great film.
