Gedeon Burkhard: Interview with a Basterd
Also Known As:
A famous actor in his native Germany.
But in Basterds He Plays:
Corporal Wilhelm Wicki, an “Austrian Jew who in the late 1920s immigrates to America, and when the war starts, he is one of the first to enlist.”
The Joy of Scalping (Part One):
“We all had to go through scalping training, and the biggest challenge was making it look realistic by moving the knife as though you’re really cutting through something. It’s something you just have to work at, but I have to say it’s easier than learning to slit a throat.”
Come Again?
“Slitting a throat. I had to practice that, too. The speed of the knife, the angle of the head as you’re holding it, the way you drain the neck so the blood can come out. It’s not as easy as you’d think.”
The Basterd Life:
“We were always staying in character. Eli Roth, who plays our sergeant, had instructions to stay on top of us. The shoot was on such a tight schedule, and it was just about staying really concentrated and in character. We were Basterds 24/7. That was our life.”
