I just reblogged something from Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds which featured Hans Landa and Shoshana and…a glass of milk. Is it just me, or does the milk symbolize something? Because milk is only shown in scenes with Landa and Shoshana, more than just a call back to her family’s murder, I think the milk is a representation of purity, Shoshana’s innocence and purity specifically. When Landa drinks the milk, he is squandering her purity, taking power over her and her femininity to some extent. Since milk comes form utters/breasts, I think the milk is also a representation of female power and the ability to nurture. Milk feeds people, and Shoshana, despite her cold outside, is at heart still a nurturing person. 

Or am I just a crackpot?
