20 Things You Didn't Know About Inglourious Basterds
13. Does Quentin Have A Foot Fetish?
After the disastrous events of the clandestine meeting between Lt. Archie Hicox and double agent Bridget Von Hammersmark, pretty much everyone is shot and killed except for Hammersmark herself. Unfortunately for her, she leaves a shoe and an autograph.
Hans Landa is able to fit the incriminating footwear to Hammersmark in a scene where Diane Kruger's foot does its own share of the heavy lifting. Yet this isn't the first time that feet have played a role in QT's films.
In Pulp Fiction, there is a long conversation about the implications of giving a foot massage; in Kill Bill, Uma Thurman's big toe plays a role and gets a nice fat close up; in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, Brad Pitt picks up a Hippie-Hitcher who's feet fill the dashboard, and in From Dusk Till Dawn, Salma Hayek pours whisky (?) down her leg, onto her toes and straight into QT's gawping mouth.
Jackie Brown and Death Proof also feature scenes with feet playing somewhat seductive roles. This is a pretty public kink by anyones standards...
