Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Matthew Vaughn was the director of "Stardust". This movie was based on a novel of the same title. Who was the author of the novel?

Answer: Neil Gaiman

Neil Gaiman wrote the novel in 1994. The screenplay of this movie was written by the director, Matthew Vaughn, himself together with Jane Goldman.

The story itself took 11 days, but the director managed to squeeze it into a two hour film. "Stardust" was released in the USA on 10 August 2007.
2. We were introduced to our first character from the movie, Dunstan Thorne, by the narrator. He lived in a small English town named what?

Answer: Wall

The little city of Wall was surrounded by a wall, to prevent children from going and wandering too far away from the town. A guard was placed at the gap of the wall to stop every child from crossing the wall.

The movie itself was filmed in Wester Ross (in the Scottish Highlands) and the Isle of Skye. Meanwhile, the street of Stormhold was filmed on Elm Hill, Norwich.
3. One day, Dunstan crossed the wall to go into the magical realm of Stormhold. He met a princess, who was captured by the witch Ditchwater Sal. What was the name of the princess?

Answer: Una

Ditchwater Sal captured Una. Una was the daughter to the King of Stormhold and had seven brothers. She bacame Ditchwater Sal's slave and it was she who gave away the priceless possession, namely the lucky snowdrop flower, to Dunstan in the market.
4. Nine months after Dunstan met the beautiful princess, a basket was sent to his house. Apart from the baby, what was wrapped together in the roll of parchment?

Answer: A Babylon candle

The baby was our hero for the story, Tristan Thorne. (NOTE: The character's name is Tristran in the novel, but it was changed to Tristan in the movie.) The Babylon candle was used to travel from one place to another in a split second of time. It was used by witches and warlocks who dealt with dark magics. Somehow, Una managed to steal one from her master.

Tristan Throne was played by Charlie Cox, although Alex Pettyfer auditioned for the same role. Meanwhile, the character of Yvaine was initially played by Sarah Michelle Geller, but later she turned it down with the reason that she wanted to spend more time with her husband. Eventually, the role of Yvaine was played by Claire Danes.
5. Soon, the King of Stormhold was dying. He gathered his remaining 4 sons around his deathbed. The king turned a (an) _____ into a diamond and released it to the sky. He told his sons that whoever retrieved back the diamond and returned it back to a (an) ____ would become the next king. What is the missing word?

Answer: Ruby

The ruby necklace flew into the sky, and knocked down a shining star. All the four princes were searching for the necklace desperately. In the end, all the princes were killed. Eventually, the last of the royal bloodline turned out to be Tristan, since he was the son to Una, the only princess to the previous King of Stormhold.
6. Out of the remaining four princes, who was the last one to die?

Answer: Septimus

The seven princes' names were Primus, Secundus, Tertius, Quartus, Quintus, Sextus and Septimus (which I found very interesting, and all the ghosts of the dead princes were particularly funny!). Out of these seven princes, Quartus, Quintus and Sextus were already dead.

Secundus was tricked and pushed from the window of the castle by Septimus. Next, Tertius died, together with the bishop, after drinking the poisoned wine.

Primus was then killed by Lamia in an inn, which was set up magically by Lamia herself, hoping to lure Yvaine into her inn to spend the night, and thus, taking the opportunity to kill her.

Septimus remained the last prince alive and he continued his journey to search for the diamond. He was then killed off by the witch, Lamia, during a fight.

The bishop was played by Mark Burns, and this movie was his last movie. He died before the film was released.
7. Tristan set off his journey to find the fallen star, to win the heart of his lover, Victoria. Soon, Tristan found the star, Yvaine. They were both being chased by the evil witch Lamia. Tristan wanted to go back to his home desperately and asked Yvaine to think of the same destination, but she misunderstood him. In the end, they ended up in the middle of the sky in the midst of clouds. There, they met Captain Shakespeare on a flying pirate ship. Which of the followings did he NOT teach them?

Answer: Knitting

Captain Shakespeare taught Yvaine how to play piano. He also taught Tristan about fencing. One night, he taught them dancing, and it was at that time that he realized Yvaine was the fallen star, but he made the promise not to tell anybody else about the secret.

Chaptain Shakespeare was known for his fearsome and brutal reputation. Eventually, his crews knew that he was actually a whoopsie, after watching him dancing gracefully to the waltz. The character of Captain Shakespeare was portrayed by Robert De Niro.
8. The story reached its climax when Tristan, Septimus and Lamia fought in a battle in Lamia's residence. In the battle, Lamia's sisters, Empusa and Mormo were killed. Then Lamia killed Septimus by using her magic and she used the voodoo doll to control the dead Septimus to attack Tristan. In the end, how did Lamia die?

Answer: She was killed by the intense bright light of Yvaine.

Yvaine hugged Tristan and she shone brightly. She asked Tristan, "What do stars do? They shine." So, the wicked witch Lamia was killed off by the intense bright light of the star. She also told Tristan that she was not able to do that earlier with a broken heart because she thought that Tristan was dead.

It was crucial that Una managed to arrive at the gap of the wall in time to stop Yvaine from entering the small town of Wall. Otherwise, Yvaine would turn into a rock if she crossed the wall.
9. In the end Tristan became the new king while Yvaine was the queen.

Answer: True

Una met her son during the final battle in Lamia's residence. After the battle was won, Tristan picked up the diamond and it turned to a ruby immediately. Una saw this and she knew instantly Tristan was the next King of Stormhold. All the people in the kingdom joined in the celebration to celebrate their new king and queen.

After 80 years of ruling the kingdom of Stormhold, Tristan and Yvaine traveled to heaven, using the Babylon candle, where they became the twin stars, shining brightly in the sky.
10. Complete the following quote, which was said by Yvaine repeatedly in the movie. One of the scenes where she said this line was towards the end of the movie, when Lamia was killed. "What do stars do? _____."

Answer: Shine

Yvaine asked the same question over and over again to Tristan throughout the film. However, Tristan could not answer the question. He noticed that Yvaine shone more brightly each day. In the end, she answered the question herself, during the battle where Lamia as killed. Well, of course, stars shine!

Another quotable quote from this movie is the very first line of the movie told by the narrator:
"A philosopher once asked, 'Are we human because we gaze at the stars, or do we gaze at them because we are human?' Pointless, really..." "Do the stars gaze back?" Now THAT'S a question.

The last line of the movie, also told by the narrator is meaningful, too.
"They ruled for 80 years. But no man can live forever, unless he who possesses the heart of a star, and Yvaine gave him hers entirely."
