NUNEZ ALBERCA, Alejandro. The strategies of belief in Quentin Tarantino’s the Hateful Eight. Contratexto [online]. 2020, n.34, pp.243-264. ISSN 1025-9945. http://dx.doi.org/10.26439/contratexto2020.n034.4875.
This article proposes a semiotic-structural analysis of Quentin Tarantino's film The Hateful Eight (2015). Our work incorporates elements from filmic narratology, in particular the idea of Emily Anderson's unreliable narrator, who considers the possibility of an overall unreliable discourse. Our analysis shows that the film, both at the narrative and discourse level, presents a series of manipulative simulations that allow its actants to organize the cognitive dimension of knowledge and belief. This reveals a device that allows characters to deceive not only others with their speeches but also the enunciator who operates at a higher level. Therefore, the film transforms the underreporting and misreporting into its key tools.
