So Quentin Tarantino has given us some AH material! Again, do not read this if you intend to see the film but haven't yet done so.

The result of the film is that in June 1944 - shortly after D-Day, before the liberation of Paris - Hitler, Göring, Goebbels and Bormann, along with about 350 seats worth of the top Nazi brass and their wives, all get incinerated/machine gunned/blowed up real good in a Parisian theater by a motley crew that includes a vengeful French Jewish woman, her African boyfriend, a semi-literate Tennessean with his Jewish-American raiders, and an opportunistic SS interrogator. What would be the ramifications of this? Who would take power in Germany, and how quickly would they make a capitulation? How would the Eastern Front be resolved, with the Soviets just reaching the eastern bounds of Poland? How many Holocaust deaths would be averted, and what would come of Israel?
