There are a lot of great shots in Kill Bill, but which one is the greatest is a question worth asking. There’s obviously more than five great shots, but I figure I picked the very best ones, so there it is.
Of course the two shots which Ify posted are great, and the shots in B&W at the end of KB vol2 when Uma is driving. This 50’s look is just an amazing idea for the end of the movie. And we can good appreciate them because it isn’t just one or two shots, and it gives people the will to stay to the end of the movie !

This is my favorite too. I always loved that sideways look Vernita’s giving. That’s gangsta!

Fuckin’ word!
I also thought that the music which correlated to the DiVAS walking towards the chapel before they halt had a lot to do with the intensity, some great film-making there.
That cool ass shot in the House of Blue Leaves when we follow the Bride to the bathroom, then Charlie Brown and the proprietor up the stairs, then Sofie down the stairs and into the bathroom where the Bride is taking off her jacket. Everyhting in one take. Outstanding. Breathtaking.
There are two screen shots that will forever be burned in my mind as “the greatest shots of the greatest film ever”. When Bill is laying dead in the grass, and the final shot of Kiddo and BB.
Another cool one, is when the bride walks out of the chapel when she hears Bill playing the flute. It’s kinda like that shot in pulp fiction where we are left hanging back at the door while jules & vincent go off 2 discuss foot massages more. Both cool shots!
All of those shots are great, but I would probably go for when The Bride is surrounded by the Crazy 88 and she just raises her sword and looks along the reflection.
