Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What does the road sign on the way into Sin City say?

Answer: Basin City, 700ft

The 'Ba' at the beginning of 'Basin' has eroded slightly, making it almost seem to read as 'sin'. We see this sign a number of times as cars drive to and from Roark's Farm.

2. What colour is Jackie Boy's car?

Answer: Blue

As you will know if you have seen the film, it is shot in strongly contrasting monochrome (to make it convincingly resemble the graphic novel on which it is based) with certain objects picked out in colour. Dwight's car, in which he follows Jackie Boy's blue car, is red.

3. Which cult director randomly guest directed a single scene in 'Sin City'?

Answer: Quentin Tarantino

According to the opening credits, this director was Tarantino. The scene he directed is apparently the one in which Dwight follows Jackie Boy's car. (Robert Rodriguez was the guy who directed the whole feature.)

4. Who are the twin sisters with whom Marv falls in love?

Answer: Goldie and Wendy

Goldie is the one he really falls in love with, and also the one who is killed early on. Marv frequently mistakes Wendy for Goldie in his agitated state of mind.

5. How long does Hartigan spend in prison for the crime he did not commit?

Answer: 8 years

We know this partly because Hartigan tells us in his voiceover, but also because Nancy is 11 when he is put away, and 19 when he is released.

6. Which Hollywood actor has a brief, but memorable, role as a hitman who kills young women and hookers?

Answer: Josh Hartnett

Hartnett only appears in the very first and the very last scenes of the film. You almost forget he's in it until he appears again at the end.

7. How many lines does Elijah Wood speak during the course of the film?

Answer: None

Wood neither speaks nor utters a single sound whilst playing Kevin (the cannibalistic farmhand), even when he is dismembered by Marv and then fed, fully conscious, to a wolf. The effect is pretty disturbing, but not so disturbing as Elijah's trademark scary eyes, which first became famous when he played Frodo in 'Lord of the Rings'.

8. What nationality are the mercenaries who steal Jackie Boy's severed head from Dwight?

Answer: Irish

The mercenaries come across as a sort of IRA-type terrorist group in the film, as they all have strong Irish accents and use grenades.

9. At the beginning of the film, which part of Roark, the paedophile, does Hartigan shoot off?

Answer: All three

Hartigan removes Roark's "weapons" - his gun is in his hand when it is shot off. He then proceeds to do so. Roark has reconstructive surgery later on which turns him into a hideous, bright yellow man.

10. Which of the three main characters is alive by the end of the film?

Answer: Dwight

Dwight is alive and well with his storyline concluded neatly, and he pairs off with Gail, a hooker. Marv is executed in an electric chair, but it takes a couple of goes. Hartigan shoots himself in order to give Nancy a shot at survival, as she would always be in danger as long as he was alive.
