‘Inglorious’ treatment

July 25, 2008

Italian director Enzo Castellari isn’t a household name in the states, but the name of one his action epics sure will be soon.

Castellari’s War World II romp “The Inglorious Bastards” is being remade by none other than Quentin Tarantino. The two directors are best pals now, and on Tuesday you can check out the original on DVD. The new-to-DVD “Bastards” is grand fun - full of cornball dialogue, blustery antiheroes and near nonstop action.

I interviewed Castellari for a piece in The Washington Times. The director may be 70, but he’s a hearty talker who still loves movies as much as he ever did.
