10 Most Paused Moments In Quentin Tarantino Movies

10. Hitler's Face Is Obliterated - Inglourious Basterds

Never one to pass up the chance to rewrite history when the opportunity presents itself, Quentin Tarantino's alternate take on the events of WWII that was Inglorious Basterds saw none other than Adolf Hitler himself being viciously gunned down in the middle of a movie theatre.

And determined to deliver a moment of unfiltered catharsis for many in attendance when taking in the moment the Basterds finally break into the opera box housing the Fuhrer, Tarantino simply did not hold back.

After blasting onto the already burning scene, thanks to Marcel igniting some flammable film post-Shosanna's final message to the Nazi Party leaders in attendance, Eli Roth's Sergeant Donny Donowitz utterly blitzes Hitler and his cronies in the box.

But in a moment that has no doubt been paused and rewound time and time again by the stunned folks taking in the feature at home, The Bear Jew refuses to let up until Hitler's face resembles a moustached pile of mash potatoes.

The frozen shot of a Hitler dummy with half its face blown off is about as surreal a frame as you're ever going to find in the routinely absurd world of Tarantino. But it's one that will likely never get old, no matter how many times you choose to hit pause and rewind again.
