Answer: Electra

Electra was the daughter of King Agamemnon and Queen Clytemnestra of Mycenae.

When Agamemnon departed to command the Greek army against Troy, he chose to sacrifice his eldest daughter Iphigenia as a human sacrifice to Artemis, to ensure favourable winds for the fleet. Upon his return (with the Trojan priestess Cassandra), Queen Clytemnestra (and her lover Aegisthus) murdered Agamemnon (and Cassandra) for what he did.

Electra and her brother Orestes, both away from home when this all happened, returned to Mycenae and discovered what happened. Together, they plot to seek their revenge on their mother for the murder of their father.

Answer: Kingpin

Along with Woody Harrelson as the down on his luck, alcoholic ex-pro bowler, Randy Quaid plays the talented (but naive) Amish bowler that Woody tries to convince to try for a million dollar bowling tournament in Reno. Of course, Woody's character has ulterior motives. Along the way, hilarity ensues as they try to earn money hustling other bowlers.

Rounding out the "Kingpin" cast was the always funny Bill Murray, and English actress Vanessa Angel.

In adulthood, after his first leading role in "Glory Daze," Affleck's breakthrough role came with "Chasing Amy" (1997) and was quickly followed up with his successful co-writing (and co-acting) effort in "Good Will Hunting" with friend Matt Damon.

Answer: Stan Lee

Stan Lee (Stanley Martin Lieber) began his career when he joined the "Timely Comics" division of a book publisher as an assistant in 1939.

Answer: Bullseye

In the second installment of the "Toy Story" franchise, Woody not only learns of the television series, but also that he is, himself, a valuable collectible toy.

Answer: blindness

Braille can be read by feeling dots on a piece of paper. Louis Braille (1809-1852) was the creator of this form of reading. At the age of three, Louis went blind and feared he wouldn't be able to receive a good education. He was frustrated that books for blind people had raised letters and took a long time to read. So, inspired by a code designed by Charles Barbier for the army that allowed soldiers to read in the dark, Braille developed the reading and writing system that today bears his name.
