So the next time you're in Germany, make sure to use the correct hand gesture if you're a spy.

5 minutes of tense dialogue leading up to 15 seconds of glorious mayhem. Tarantino really is a master of cinematic tension and release.
-
When Fassbender drops the act and starts speaking english, that's when you realize you've been comfortably listening to German for the past 10 or so mins. Such wonderful dialogue
-
That actor that played the Nazi is a boss at acting. I don’t understand why I haven’t seen him more in other roles. Great actor.
-
4:35 “Well if this is it old boy, I hope you don’t mind me going out speaking the kings” was one of the coolest things I’ve ever heard in a British accent.
-
the acting here is so great. you can even see the German Major sigh to himself shortly after seeing how the British officer signals three fingers (giving the him away). He contemplates that his life will be over soon, but he must do what he must.
-
As a german growing up in America it was such a trip to watch this scene in some American theaters and be one of the few people there who knew how he had just given himself away. Very cool detail by Quentin
-
The german actor playing the captain, is such a good actor. The reaction at the hand sign is soo good. You can just see his thoughts racing and his emotions shift as he is slowly realizing the situation he is in, before everybody else. Capturing the emotions of: suprise, disbelief, dissapointment, anger and fear and then anger. It is some of the best acting and soo underrated.

Always loved the exhale at 2:12, its the small details that makes this film great. He knows that hes probably not gonna come out of this alive when he confronts them.
-
The shocked look on their faces when they saw Michael Fassbender using the wrong hand gesture. That's when the Germans knew that Fassbender wasn't German. Kudos to Quentin Tarantino for the cultural detail.
-
You have to appreciate the class here though. Man knows he's done. The Major knows he's going to win even if he dies because the spy will die. But their is still time for a smoke and a drink.

August Diehls acting was amazing. His face when the 3 fingers come up. 10/10!
-
"Hope you don't mind me going out speaking the kings." Favorite line in the movie.
-
"And at this range, I'm a real Fredrick Zoller." Great line.
-
Honestly, I watched this movie numerous times and notice something new every time. The look of concern on the bartender and the slight glance to see if the other party of soldiers is privy to what is going on right behind them. Such a master of storytelling too.
-
This whole scene can work perfectly as a short movie by itself. A masterclass in tension building, humour, acting and explosive pay off.
-
I love how Hugo shteeglitz plays the whole scene with the card still on his forehead.
-
This scene is essentially where the term "that escalated quickly" came from.
-
I love how the german officer behaves after spotting the spy. Like, he is getting ready for the huge mess
-
Its amazing how it goes from jokes to seriousness like that so fluidly. It really is incredible
-
2:12 Man took a deep breath, he knows what's about to happen. More importantly, he chose this route.
