Besides swinging a mighty bat in Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglourious Basterds”, Eli Roth also directed the short film “Nations Pride”, the film supervised by Joseph Goebbels and screened for the Nazi elite in a most unfortunate theatre (for the Nazi) in Paris. I’ve got the full Monty here for you from the Blu-Ray and DVD. In it, Pvt. Fredrick Zoller (Daniel Brühl), basically digs in in the worlds most secure tower and picks off American soldiers who apparently did not also have sniper rifles, tanks or feet. Look for the back of Quentin’s head in a cameo at some point in the proceedings. Thanks Cinematical. »

Along with playing the vengeful Sgt. Donny Donowitz in Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds, Eli Roth spent a little time behind the camera filming the short Stolz der Nation or Nation's Pride. For the uninitiated, I'll try to explain without being spoileriffic. Basically, the screening of the film plays an important part in the latter half of the story. It's a piece of German war propaganda cooked up by Joseph Goebbels (Sylvester Groth), which stars Pvt. Fredrick Zoller (Daniel Brühl) as himself -- a fighter who becomes a war hero after he basically sits in a high tower for a few days and picks off hundreds of enemy soldiers in Italy.
As the Blu-ray explains, Roth went out and shot a stunning number of shots in a very short period of time, and it all came together in this sniper-filled short. It's mostly a lot of black and white carnage »
