A Grave Connection
As we’ve mentioned before, we love spotting all the connections between Tarantino films that place them in the same universe. It’s especially fascinating when the films come out many years apart from each other. Here’s a surprise connecting Django Unchained and Kill Bill: Volume 2, which came out eight years apart.
In Kill Bill: Volume 2, The Bride is buried with a tombstone that reads “Paula Schultz, 1823-1898.” If the last name sounds familiar, that’s because you’ve heard it before. The tombstone is referencing Dr. Schultz from Django Unchained. Paula was Dr. King Schultz’s wife. We don’t have an answer as to why her grave was empty, but it’s interesting to wonder about.
