10 Movie Secrets That Were Hiding In Plain Sight

3. The Bride's Name - Kill Bill

For much of the first Kill Bill, the audience is purposefully left out of the narrative. While the basics are established, the full extent of the story is kept under wraps, to the point where even the name of Uma Thurman's character is obscured.

Dubbed either "The Bride" or "Kiddo", there's even a scene where her full name is bleeped out, in order to keep her real identity a secret even to the people watching.

However, despite going to great lengths to obscure it, her name actually does feature in the movie, albeit written down in a brief close-up. It's stamped on The Bride's boarding pass, revealing her name as Beatrix Kiddo.

Director Quentin Tarantino actually extends this mystery into the second film, but for those scouring the fine details of the first flick, they'd already figured it out.
