As if the names “Quentin Tarantino” and “Brad Pitt” weren’t already enough for us.

In a recent interview with MTV, B.J. Novak provided an insider’s perspective on Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds. (The 29-year-old plays Private First Class Utivich.) Although he admits the WWII-era film is a bit hard to describe, the Office star didn’t have any difficulty heaping praise on one of the “coolest movies” he’s “ever seen or been a part of.”

“It’s a very cool, very stylish, intense, funny movie that takes place during World War II behind enemy lines in France. Brad Pitt leads a squadron of American soldiers. And that’s the most normal part of the movie. It gets crazier from there. But for some reason, you’re always completely invested. You’re always completely by it. As soon as you see this reality, you feel it. You believe it. You’re invested in it. It’s just one of the coolest scripts I’ve ever read.”

And this is coming from someone who serves as an actor, writer and producer for one of the coolest shows around.

Did Novak’s enthusiasm sell the film for you? If so, make sure to mark August 21 down on your calendar.
