Screaming, This is Real, Or Is It? Quiz

Answer: Oslo

The painting is called "Der Schrei der Natur" which is the German name Munch gave it. There are actually two paintings of "The Scream" and two pastel versions. The paintings in the National Gallery and Munch Museum in Oslo are the ones that have been stolen on more than one occasion.

The painting was stolen in 1994 from the National Gallery on the day the Winter Olympics opened in Lillehammer, Norway. The incident was seen as an embarrassment not only because it happened when the entire world was gathered in Norway but also because the thieves taunted the police thanking them for poor security. The painting was recovered a few months later undamaged.

It was "The Scream" from the Munch Museum that was stolen by armed robbers in 2004, along with Munch's "Madonna." They were recovered two years later with some water damage to the Scream in the bottom left corner but nothing to extreme. Experts said that the damage was irreparable.

Answer: In a classic movie

The Wilhelm scream is the classic scream that an actor does when something shocking or dramatic happens. It first occurred in the 1951 film "Distant Drums" although it is named after a character in the 1953 movie "The Charge at Feather River." It has been used hundreds of times, including the "Star Wars" franchise.

The scream is a stock sound and not produced by the actor each time. Initially it was used for dramatic scenes but it has since become more comedic and cliché in use.

Answer: True

If you weren't floating through space but instead on a spaceship with other people, they would be able to hear you scream because of the air inside the ship.
