Was that Morricone song in the titles something made for the movie?
I thought that the main theme was Luis Bacalov's "Django" song, or am I mistaken?

Well, Henry....where I think Tarantino excels is his simultaneity of the serious and intense and the meta and humourous. There was a hardly a moment in INGLORIOUS where I felt this was "only a film". The way he directed and executed the scenes prevented that. Same with DJANGO, really, although not to the same extent. Yet, I became fully aware of his tools and his riffs and his references.
It's this 'double' effectiveness of his films that makes him so appealing to me. Of course, his chosen music is part of that.
I thought Django was a pile of dog's doo. Just to prove how much I missed the point of this 'masterpiece', here's a paragraph from my IMDB review:
"Can Tarantino spell i-n-c-o-n-g-r-u-o-u-s?
Actually I'm not even going to list the crimes against that word (trust me, they are legion). Apparently in a Tarantino film you're not supposed to question incongruities and historical absurdities; it seems, for some inexplicable reason, such restrictions apply only to other filmmakers. So rap songs in a pre-civil war western are okay as long as your name starts with T and ends with O. Negroes riding around with cool sunglasses talking back (or is that 'black'?) to plantation owning southerners without instantly getting blown out of the saddle is all part of Tarantino-World; as indeed are weapons with an accuracy far beyond anything known in the 19th Century. So no, I'm not going to question the lack of verisimilitude in this movie; I couldn't be so unkind to such a genius..."
