In Quentin Tarantino's cult classic film Kill Bill, The Bride's (Uma Thurman) name is a mystery within the thrilling narrative, but the answer is revealed way earlier than most viewers realize. The Bride's name is consistently bleeped out, only to officially be revealed in Kill Bill: Volume 2.

The director admitted he hadn't pursued other stories in the Kill Bill universe because making both movies had exhausted him. Even with his creative enthusiasm and outlined concepts, a properly made Volume 3 was too intimidating to tackle at the time.
The way Kill Bill looks is one thing that immediately jumps out. While Tarantino movies are always stylish and visually pleasing, Kill Bill stands out because of the diversity of its locations, its varied use of color, and the creativity/playfulness of its editing.
