The Green Rays and Holy Whores Xmas Quiz 2010

In lieu of anything pointed or interesting to say, I offer a brief and marginally taxing end of term quiz. I hope you've been paying attention. (Most are reasonably simple, a few ever-so-slightly fiendish.)

1. What did Michael Shannon find in a box of Quaker Oats?

2. What does it mean to be "wired in"? (and how can harnessing this make you a multi billionaire?)

3. Where did Denzel Washington's daughters work in Unstoppable?

4. What was the name of the Von Trierish director in The Father of My Children?

5. In which film would you find Rosa Sparks and Iron Maven?

6.  ...and Mimi Le Meaux and Dirty Martini?

7. Why was there an empty seat on the Cannes Jury?


8. What was notable about James Miller's shaving routine in Certified Copy?

9. And what restaurant convention was it that annoyed him so much (which Steve Coogan repeated in The Trip)?

10. Why did a man doing a dodgy Keith Richards impression turn up at a school in Greenwich?

11. What made Johnny Marco pass out in Somewhere?

12. In which film did a well presented seafood starter make an aristocratic lady go all funny? (Some called it Prawnographic.)


13. In which film did Canadian indie band Raised By Swans appear?

14. And what was the name of Dominic Cooper's band in Tamara Drew?

15. Who drank his last Pabst Blue Ribbon?

16. Who departed, after famously telling Jake to forget it?

17. And who made his last visit to a big building with patients?
