The Triumph of Trauma: Tarantino Style
Keyword(s):
In Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2, Quentin Tarantino uses thematic symbolism to demonstrate the evolution of the film’s characters by assigning them code names. Each character’s code name is a different species of snake or is related to snakes: Black Mamba, Copperhead, Cottonmouth, Sidewinder, California Kingsnake, and Snake Charmer. Their aliases are a few examples of Easter eggs concealed in the films. The code names portray aspects of their character and the story of their growth as individuals. The protagonist, Beatrix Kiddo undergoes numerous aliases and evolves throughout the film through her recovery from immense trauma.
