Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Before Madonna won the Razzie's for "Body of Evidence", she shared the spotlight with Oscar winners Jodie Foster and Kathy Bates, and Oscar nominees William H. Macy and John Malkovich. In this dark comedy, an insignificant bookkeeper is hot on the trail of a strangler in an Eastern European town.

Answer: Shadows and Fog

Woody Allen directs this film in 1992. In here, Madonna is cast as a wife having an affair with a clown (Malkovich) who is married to a sword swallower (Mia Farrow).
Apart from the actors mentioned, it also stars John Cusack, Julie Kavner, Donald Pleasance, Mia Farrow, and Lily Tomlin.
2. After Jack and Rose fell in love aboard the Titanic, the names Jack and Rose resurface in an entirely different dramatic film. In this film, set in an abandoned island, Jack (Daniel Day-Lewis) is a caring yet eccentric father to Rose (Camilla Bell) whom he has protected from the complexities of the outside world. Their seemingly solid existence is challenged when Jack becomes fatally ill.

Answer: The Ballad of Jack and Rose

Shown in 2005, "The Ballad of Jack and Rose", which is helmed by Rebecca Miller, brings out layered performances from the two main actors. Catherine Keener, Jason Lee, Beau Bridges and Jena Malone round up the cast.
3. After a breakthrough role in "Billy Elliot", Jaime Bell returns to the big screen in this dark comedy about the lives of people in upper-class suburbia. With Bell are the amazing Glenn Close, Ralph Fiennes, Allison Janey, and Carrie-Ann Moss.

Answer: The Chumscrubber

The film is quite interesting and showcases some of the better performances in the year it was released. Jaime Bell plays a teenager who witnesses the suicide of his best friend, but strangely tells no one about it. Glenn Close is the dead guy's mother.
4. After directing George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Matt Damon and Brad Pitt in "Ocean's Eleven", Oscar winner Steven Soderbergh joins forces with Michelangelo Antonioni and Wong Kar Wai in this trilogy about love and sex. The three short films are an examination of sexuality and love.

Answer: Eros

Here are three short erotic films in one, by three of the world's best directors - not at all bad. Soderbergh directs the first vignette about a man (Robert Downey, Jr.) who has a recurring dream about a woman. A menage-a-trois is the focus of the second episode, which is directed by Antonioni.

The Third episode, which focuses on a tailor and a callgirl, is expertly directed by Wong Kar Wai.
5. Oscar winner Cate Blanchett returns to her native Australia in this film about a reformed heroin addict whose life turns upside down when her ex-boyfriend returns.

Answer: Little Fish

This is an Australian film that boasts a strong Australian cast which includes, Hugo Weaving and Sam Neill. Blanchett shines in her role as a woman who is trying to let go of her sordid past, only for it to catch up with her when an ex-boyfriend comes back.
6. Before becoming Batman, Christian Bale starred in this film about an industrial worker who has not slept in one year. Jennifer Jason-Leigh and Michael Ironside co-starred.

Answer: The Machinist

The film is otherwise known as "El Maquinista" and here, future Batman Christian Bale shows his acting chops. Bale lost a lot of weight for this film and it worked out as he turned in a memorable performance of a man who thinks he is going insane.
7. Brad Pitt is a superstar. But before he became one, he starred in this film, shot in Yugoslavia before the war. Here Pitt plays a man in search of a cure for a skin disease. Along the way, he finds love and redemption.

Answer: The Dark Side of the Sun

The civil war in Yugoslavia actually resulted in the loss of the film's footage. It was found five years after it was made. In the film, Brad Pitt is effective as a man with a rare skin disease. However, the movie itself proves to be a tedious watch.
8. In "Titanic", Leonardo di Caprio proved his box-office appeal. In "The Aviator", he bagged his first Oscar Best Actor nomination. But has anyone seen this film, where Tobey Maguire also appears, about teenagers who would talk about their life in a diner?

Answer: Don's Plum

"Don's Plum" was not actually shown in the United States as a result of a lawsuit by Tobey Maguire and Leonardo di Caprio. This film revolves around young but unhappy people who gather together in a diner to talk about their misadventures.
9. Three years after winning an Oscar for "Shakespeare in Love", Gwyneth Paltrow joins Kevin Kline, Parker Posey, Phoebe Cates, and Jennifer Beals in this flick directed by Jennifer Jason-Leigh and Allan Cummings. In this film, a writer and his actress wife hold a party in celebration of their six years of marriage.

Answer: The Anniversary Party

This digital film brings together a slew of talented actors. Cummings and Jason Leigh play a recently reconciled couple who host a party. They invite very close friends and as the night grows old, everything the couple has planned slowly goes awry.
10. A disturbed art student vows to commit suicide on his 21st birthday as an ode to his favorite painter. His psychiatrist vows to save him from killing himself and ends up caught up in the student's dark obsessions. Ewan McGregor and Ryan Gosling head the cast.

Answer: Stay

Marc Foster directs this suspenseful film that also stars Naomi Watts, Bob Hoskins, and Janeane Garofalo. McGregor is the psychiatrist who is bent on rescuing Gosling's character from committing suicide.
Released in 2005, the film is one of those which has an unexpected twist in the end. Prepare to be confused when the film ends. Better yet, watch it a second time to fully grasp what it wants to say.
