This movie was really big and I enjoyed it a lot, but how much is true about it? Where there in fact such soldiers who operated behind the Nazi lines or is it all purely fiction?
Ahah, so that was pretty much it you think? Possibly you are right, the story is fascinating though, imagining that a group of man could do all that work is nothing but a movie though.
Tarantino (writer/director) wanted to be success commercially, he succeed, but fail to enrich the military history of WW2 ! However, he was inspired by another fictional movie of Castellari's, The Inglorious Basterds (as far as my knowledge goes), a macaroni combat film, circa 1978 ..
I agree with that, Tarantino doesn't want to make history in it's literal sense, he just wants to make it's piece of art to entertain the masses. Never heard of that film from 1978 though.
