Kill Bill homework

The film Kill Bill is postmodernism is because:

  1. that the film is pastiche for its different conventions and genres
  2. that it is fragmented in its film styles by one scene in American action to anime to film noir to Japanese action  
  3. that the film at first seems real but as it goes on it seems ridiculous in its reality for example when Uma Thurman it fighting the Japanese character and the amount of death and blood surrounding seems unreal that this would never happen   
  4. It’s a nostalgic film for Tarantino takes bits and pieces from cinematic canon and mixes them up. 
  5. that the music is disconnected to the scenes and action in the film
