The real 'Inglourious Basterds'

shoshanna.jpgKim Masters, host of The Business on KCRW, talks about her father's part in a secret unit that killed Nazis on today's Talk of the Nation on National Public Radio. The show airs at 9 p.m. on KPCC, but it's online now. That gives me an opening to admit I liked the new Tarantino movie more than I expected. And really looking forward to more from Austrian-born actor Christoph Waltz, who plays the SS colonel Landa, and from French actress Mélanie Laurent, who totally rocks as the vengeful Shoshanna Dreyfus.
