Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The three maintenance men that were hired to work on Frances' house were from what country?

Answer: Poland

Only Pawel was able to speak a bit of English. The other two were only fluent in their native language. Therefore, Frances knew that she had to learn Polish in order to communicate with them.
2. What movie were Frances and Pawel watching in the theater in Tuscany?

Answer: George of the Jungle

Pawel and Frances were watching it together, until he noticed that the girl that he liked was there also. Frances told him to go be with her, and she left shortly after that.
3. Finish the quote: 'I'll hire the descendants of _______ Gods to do the heavy lifting'.

Answer: Roman

Naturally, Frances was being sarcastic to Patti saying that she could hire 'Roman Gods' to help her fix up her house, being that she was in Italy. She knew it would take an army to refurbish her house, so she said that to Patti to ease her concern.
4. Frances Mayes is a marital therapist.

Answer: False

She and her husband are both writers who live in San Francisco. She is well known for her works and also her book reviews. In fact, at one of her parties a man came up to her and said that she had reviewed one of his books and had not liked it. Well along with that conversation, she also found out that her husband was having an affair.
5. What was the villa that Frances bought in Tuscany called?

Answer: Bramasole (Desire the Sun)

The villa is called 'Bramasole' because it is situated on the countryside that receives the majority of the sun throughout the day.
6. Who said this: 'Regrets are a waste of time, they're the past crippling you in the present'.

Answer: Katherine

Katherine said this to Frances while her portrait was been drawn. She thought Frances was sad once again, and told her to stop looking for what she wanted in life. She said to forget about it and to continue working on her house and it would eventually come to her in time. Katherine always had these great stories and quotes that made Frances rethink her way of life.
7. What color is the dress that Marcello dreams he sees Frances in?

Answer: White

White symbolizes purity, so maybe Marcello was thinking of a long-term relationship with Frances. That was until Patti came and permanently stayed with Frances. Then the relationship between them fizzled.
8. After buying the house, Frances realizes that there are a few things extra that she has inherited. What is one of them?

Answer: one grape

The other items were 10,000 empty wine bottles and every issue of the Italian newspaper printed in 1958, along with a few unruly creatures that had inhabited the villa before she had moved in. The previous owners made their own wine, so that explains the leftover empty wine bottles that were left behind.

There was only one grape left on the vine in the vineyard when she moved in because grapes were not in season at the time. That one little grape showed that the vineyard was still able to flourish at the right time.

As for the newspapers, no one really learns the reason why the owners wanted every paper that was printed in 1958.
9. In Positano, what refreshment does Marcello offer Frances to drink ?

Answer: Limoncello

It's a drink that his family makes, which consists of alcohol, sugar, lemon juice, lemon rind and water.
10. Finish the movie tagline: 'Life offers you a thousand _________... all you have to do is take one'.

Answer: chances

This movie is all about taking chances and exlporing new things that might be different from everyday life. Frances certainly does take chances in the movie and finds out that with a little care and much patience, good things will come.
