Sr - Sz Movies Trivia Questions

1. "Strange World" opens with a man named Jaeger leading an exploration party that includes his son Searcher. What is their last name, that is also a word to describe a group of organisms that share a common ancestor?

From Quiz
Strange World (2022)

Answer: Clade

At the start of the film, Jaeger Clade and his son Searcher Clade are on an expedition to try and get past the Neverending Mountains that surround Avalonia. Unlike his father, Searcher does not like to explore uncharted areas and he comments to Jaeger that it is so cold that he can't feel his toes. Comically, Jaeger tells Searcher that "exploration is snow joke". In biology a 'clade' is also called a monophyletic group and it is comprised of all lineal descendants of a common ancestor. The last name of the protagonists in "Strange World" being Clade is fitting as later on the viewer sees how all of the lifeforms in the film are interconnected.

2. The Mardini family live in which city that is described as being located 8 km (5 mi) away from Damascus in Syria?

From Quiz The Swimmers (2022)

Answer: Darayya

In "The Swimmers", the city of Darayya is described as being a close suburb of Damascus, the capital of Syria and an area rich with culture and history. The Mardini family had a very close attachment to Darayya which made the idea of leaving the city and the country of Syria in general a very difficult decision. The Mardini sisters are shown at various places in Darayya including the market, swimming pool and a nightclub.

3. 'Staying Alive' (1983) was a sequel to a very successful movie. What was the name of the earlier movie?

From Quiz Staying Alive

Answer: Saturday Night Fever

'Saturday Night Fever' was released in 1977 and its central character is a young man who has a mundane job in a hardware store during the daytime. However, the movie concentrates on what he and his gang of friends do to occupy themselves on Saturday nights. The movie was directed by John Badham and produced by Robert Stigwood and was based on an article by Nik Cohn entitled 'Tribal Rites of the New Saturday Night', which appeared in 'New York' magazine in July 1976. The movie was very successful both in financial terms and in terms of accolades for its artistic qualities. For example, the American Library of Congress selected it for inclusion in the National Film Registry in 2010.

4. What is the first of a two part bet, made by the Frake family patriarch with his neighbour, before the Frakes take off for the Iowa State Fair?

From Quiz State Fair

Answer: The Frake family will each return home happy

Based on the original music by Rodgers and Hammerstein, and directed by Walter Lang, this 1945 film "State Fair" opens with Abel Frake (played by Charles Winninger) making a foolhardy bet with his neighbour, Dave Miller (Percy Kilbride) that he, his wife Melissa (Faye Bainter), daughter Margy (Jeanne Crane) and son Wayne (Dick Haymes) will all have a lovely time at the Iowa State Fair to which they are heading, and will return home happy. Will this eventuate, ladies and gentleman? Will the Frake family have a lovely time at the Fair? Tune in and see.

5. Who wrote the book "A Street Cat Named Bob" on which the film is based?

From Quiz A Street Cat Named Bob

Answer: James Bowen

James Bowen wrote the autobiographical book "A Street Cat Named Bob" telling the story of how befriending a stray cat helped the hapless drug addict overcome his addiction and give him new purpose to life. He is quoted as saying that he believes he would have died if he had not met Bob who made him re-evaluate his life.

6. What job does Sarah do on the side while she tries to audition for movies?

From Quiz Starry Eyes

Answer: Waitress

Aspiring actress Sarah is trying to make it in Hollywood, and between auditioning for roles and screwing up with each casting call and working a job at a lousy fast food restaurant, it's difficult. She struggles to keep herself going, especially since she's immensely hard on herself; in moments of frustration she pulls out her own hair. Despite the difficulty behind nabbing a good audition, she continues to spend time with her more successful friends, some of whom are really horrible, and look optimistically at a dream that could really take a toll.

7. When The Stuff is first found, what is it doing?

From Quiz The Stuff

Answer: Bubbling

One night, a group of workers patrolling a construction site stumbles upon a white goo bubbling up from the snow-covered ground and, of course, take the wise choice of eating the stuff and discovering that it's actually delicious and smooth. Almost immediately, they realize that if there's enough of the stuff, they can sell it to people. Capitalism at work, people. Elsewhere, at some point after 'The Stuff' is sold in stores, a boy wakes up in the middle of the night and looks in his fridge to find the stuff moving around on its own. When his father looks in the fridge, The Stuff is in its container.

8. The film revolves around the U.S. Armed Forces in the near future. Which branch does this movie center on?

From Quiz Stealth

Answer: Navy

The film focuses on the US Navy in the near future. In particular, the Naval Air Force division of the United States Navy. For this latest project, the Talon program, over 300 pilots tested for a position. Only three were chosen: Lieutenants Gannon, Wade, and Purcell. Those three fly the three Talon planes.

9. According to the opening title, what time of year is "Sunrise" set in?

From Quiz Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans

Answer: Summertime

The film is set in "Summertime, Vacationtime". A group of tourists comes to a small rural village, including a certain "Woman from the City" who sets the plot in motion. "Sunrise" was the biggest film Fox Studios produced during the silent era. While it was widely praised for its technical mastery, the film failed at the box office. It came out only weeks before "The Jazz Singer" and it got lost in the excitement surrounding talking pictures. Since that time, it has been hailed as one of the great masterpieces of the silent era, and is regularly named on "greatest films" lists.

10. What is the nickname of Fred Astaire's character, John Garnett, in "Swing Time"?

From Quiz Swing Time

Answer: Lucky

At the start of the film, John "Lucky" Garnett is a dancer who is leaving show business to get married to his hometown sweetheart. Since it is a romantic comedy, the path of true love does not run smoothly, complications ensue, and in the end Ginger Rogers falls in love with him. (This is the plot of most of the pictures they did together.) Fred Astaire (1899-1981) was "Bake" Baker in "Follow the Fleet" (1935) and Huck Haines in "Roberta" (also 1935), and was one of the biggest stars in 20th century cinema. He revolutionized the way that dance was portrayed in film, and influenced generations of dancers. Astaire began acting when he was six, and was a major Broadway star during the 1920s. He made his first film in 1933, "Dancing Lady". It was when Astaire was paired up with Ginger Rogers in "Flying Down to Rio" (1933) that magic happened. They would make ten films in all, with some of the best dancing ever caught on film.

11. At the start of "Sullivan's Travels", what is the name of the film that John Sullivan wants to make?

From Quiz Sullivan's Travels

Answer: O Brother, Where Art Thou?

First off, yes, the Coen Brothers film of 2000 is named as a tribute to this film. John L. Sullivan has been a director of light-weight comedies who wants to make a film he sees as educational and socially relevant. He wants to take the novel "O Brother, Where Art You?", a social commentary on injustice, and turn it into an arthouse film. The studio head, who thinks the picture would be a financial disaster, tries to dissuade Sullivan from making the film. He only convinces Sullivan that he needs to find out more about economic inequality and sends him on a road trip that is the core of the film. "Beyond These Tears" and "The Valley of the Shadow" are two of the fictional pictures playing at the theater the two sisters take Sullivan to. "The Grapes of Wrath" (1940) is a John Ford film based on the novel by John Steinbeck. It may be the greatest film ever done on economic equality, and Henry Fonda gives one of the greatest performances in film history. At the end of the film, we see a copy of the novel "O Brother, Where Art Thou?". The author is Sinclair Beckstein, which is a nod to Sinclair Lewis, Upton Sinclair and John Steinbeck, all authors of social commentary.

12. Who starred as Jack Ryan in this film?

From Quiz The Sum of All Fears

Answer: Ben Affleck

There was great surprise in the film world when Ben Affleck was given this role, as he was much younger, in a film set in 2002, than Alec Baldwin when he played Ryan in "The Hunt for Red October",set in 1984, and than Harrison Ford when he played Ryan in its two sequels "Patriot Games" and "Clear And Present Danger". (Harrison Ford was offered this film as well, but declined).

13. Which movie icon made his breakthrough performance in "Stagecoach" as the Ringo Kid?

From Quiz Stagecoach

Answer: John Wayne

Wikipedia says Wayne became "an instant superstar" after his appearance in "Stagecoach", but the actor claims to have acted in 80 Westerns between 1930 and 1939, when "Stagecoach" was released. But it would only be in 1969, 30 years later, that Wayne would finally be considered good enough to win an Oscar, as Rooster Cogburn in "True Grit".

14. Reverend Gray and his wife, Harriet, are caring for orphan John Kenyon. What relation is John to Reverend Gray?

From Quiz Stars in My Crown

Answer: nephew

In the opening narration, John says that after his parents died, he went to live with his Aunt Harriet (Ellen Drew) who was married to the pastor (Joel McCrea). That makes the pastor John's uncle by marriage, but they have a bond that is more like father and son. Dean Stockwell plays the young John Kenyon, but the narration is provided by Marshall Thompson, who starred in the successful TV drama "Daktari".

15. The narrator begins the story with a letter from a boy who has written to the Royal Academy of Science to enquire about the possibility of another world beyond the border of his own. Where does he call home?

From Quiz "Stardust": A Star Falls at Night

Answer: Wall

"Stardust" is a fantasy film based on a 1998 book of the same name by Neil Gaiman. Wall seems like a typical English village from some time ago but a secret is hidden from most of the residents. The stone wall which surrounds the village of Wall is actually separating two worlds and natural curiosity eventually leads to exploration of this.

16. James Gleason played which character in this movie?

From Quiz Suddenly

Answer: Pop Benson
