Kill Bill Vol 2

Unlike Vol 1 - which is mostly focused on violence - Kill Bill Vol 2 is primarily conversational. However, you can now see the film's overall form, and Tarantino's effort is fairly experimental. He's trying to recount the narrative of Beatrix Kiddo, without implying that Beatrix ever did anything other than drive for vengeance. Rather than that, she remains a shadow; only the individuals she defeats inform us something about her.

According to Vivica A. Fox's Killing Vernita, Beatrix has lost interest in family because her life was (apparently) taken away from her. O-(Lucy ren's Liu) history is likely comparable to Beatrix's and demonstrates what Beatrix might be capable of as an underground leader.

However, as you reach Kill Bill Vol 2, the tone shifts to introspection. The film begins with the interaction between Bill and Budd (the two are siblings) and Beatrix and Elle. The audience can see that Budd is a somewhat pitiful creature. He's slothful, uncaring, and self-centered. Meanwhile, Elle is the embodiment of Beatrix's fury, and she must abandon that aspect of herself - screaming, cursing, and blind - in order to reach her goal.
