Inglourious Basterds has many postmodern aspects. However, there are a few that stand out to me more than others. One aspect that does is the music. The music in the film doesnt relate to a war film in any kind of way and is more like music you would see in a avaerage action or comedy film. All the different pieces of music are taken from other films such as spaghetti westerns and are in no way either dramatic or sad, which is what you would expect to see in a war film.
Another aspect of postmodernism in Inglorious Basterds that really stands out at me is the fact that unlike a typical war film, none of the actors/actresses seem to end up with a hair out of place, even though they're on a killing spree. Compared to a war film like saving private ryan it is very glamourous and clean, and you definatley wouldnt expect to see that in a war film.
