Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In the 'Star Wars' movies, which of the following characters is not (nor has ever been) a Jedi knight?

Answer: Han Solo

Han is just an ordinary dude with a dodgey past, a decent amount of piloting skill and a very hairy best mate. The other three all become Jedi knights at one stage or another.
2. The Coen Brothers' masterpiece 'The Big Lebowski' is the story of a guy caught up in the kidnapping of a woman. What's the woman's name?

Answer: Bunny

It's a story all about nihilism, Vietnam, kidnapping, extortion, and violent death, but it's mostly about bowling.
3. There are very few characters in 'The Godfather' series that are not either Italian or Italian-American. Tom Hagen, the consiglieri to Don Corleone, is one such person. What nationality does he claim to be?

Answer: German-Irish

Tom (Robert Duvall) was an orphaned friend of Sonny Corleone's when they were kids, and was adopted by The Don at a young age. He is therefore the brother of Sonny, Fredo and Michael, but his lack of blood relationship does cause conflict, both inside and outside the great Corleone family.
4. 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels' has many star names in its cast, but not necessarily stars of the screen. Which of the following claims to fame is not represented in the cast?

Answer: A former Olympic sprinter

Champion boxer Steve Collins plays a bouncer. Sting (formerly lead singer with the Police) owns a bar in the movie, while soccer star Vinny Jones plays the debt collector. There is a lot of running around in this film but no sprinter stars.
5. Easily the most harrowing film on this list is Darren Aronofsky's 'Requiem for a Dream'. Bizarrely, this cautionary tale of drug abuse, with all its horrible consequences in traumatic detail, features a comic actor, Marlon Wayans. Which of the following films has Marlon not starred in?

Answer: Naked Gun

He was not in 'Naked Gun' but has starred in all of the rest. 'Don't be a Menace...' is a particularly hilarious spoof of 'Boyz in the Hood' which is very over the top but at times very very funny.
6. A fascinating aspect of the movie 'Fargo' is the relationship between the policewoman Marge and her husband Norm. While she is out solving murder mysteries what does he do?

Answer: His painting is in a competition to be on a stamp

Marge (Frances McDormand) is the real hero of "Fargo". She sorts out the whole affair despite the lack of cooperation from all of those around her, except for her loyal husband Norm (John Carroll Lynch), who gets up to prepare her breakfast before she goes to work.
7. In Quentin Tarantino's 'Pulp Fiction', the boxer Butch Coolidge (Bruce Willis) has only one item of great value to him. What is this item?

Answer: his father's watch

His father's watch is the one thing he values and it is the one thing that his girlfriend Fabienne (Maria de Medeiros) forgets to pack for him. This leads to trouble for him, his worst enemy Marcellus Wallace and some guys named Zed, Maynard and The Gimp.
8. 'Raising Arizona' is the story of a lovely couple, H.I. and Ed. Ed is a policewoman and H.I. a criminal who just can't manage to stay out of trouble. After having renounced all crime and marrying Ed, H.I. fears that he is being tempted back to his old ways, when he finds himself________.

Answer: Driving by gas stations which are not on his way home

Ed (Holly Hunter) and H.I. (Nicholas Cage) have a small period of wedded bliss, until they discover that they cannot have kids, and they decide that they should take from those who have too many. From this one bad idea, things start to go seriously wrong.
9. In the classic film 'Casablanca', during the key first meeting between Rick and Victor, Victor compliments Rick by saying 'one hears a great deal about Rick in Casablanca'. To which Rick replies________________.

Answer: 'and about Victor Laszlo everywhere'

This 1942 epic tells the story of love lost, and found, and then lost again. The above exchange gives an idea of the respect that Rick holds for Victor Laszlo, and gives us a clue as to how the film might end.
10. In one of 'Trainspotting's' many memorable scenes, Renton explains to his friend Spud 'It's a nightmare Spud'. What was he referring to?

Answer: Doing a job interview when you don't want either the job or to look like you're not trying

All of these things are done in the course of the film, but it is the job interview which seems to instill the most fear.
