20 Things You Didn't Know About Inglourious Basterds
7. A Shared Universe Part 1
It's 2021 and 'movie universes' are the thing these days. Some do rather well (Marvel), others not so well (Universal's 'Dark Universe'). Tarantino seemed to flirt with this idea as far back as Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction: Vic Vega (Michael Madsen) from Dogs and Vincent Vega (John Travolta) from Fiction were indeed brothers.
So where does Inglourious Basterds fit into all of this?
Well, it seems that Donny Donowitz (Eli Roth) had a son, Lee Donowitz, who was the film producer and cocaine fence in QT's True Romance.
This one is a bit of a stretch but Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt) is the grandfather of Floyd the couch stoner, also in True Romance and also played by Brad Pitt.
