Brad Pitt's long-awaited collaboration with Quentin Tarantino is causing the usual stir among movie buffs and fans of the Pulp Fiction director's films.

A press release has just been sent out announcing that cameras have begun rolling in Germany on their Second World War epic, to be called Inglourious Basterds.

Previously, all reference to the film was with the standard spelling 'Inglorious Bastards.'

But apparently the grammaticaly incorrect new format is the way it should be referred to from now on, 'We are not entirely sure the reasons why it has been changed.

'We think it just has to be one of those Tarantino-esque things,' says a spokesman for the film's British publicists. 'All we do know is that is definitely the title from now on.'

Marketing experts reckon Tarantino could be on to something.

The change of spelling certainly gets the producers round any problems they might encounter with advertising standards watchdogs when the film is released next year.
