Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who plays the role of Robert Kincaid?

Answer: Clint Eastwood

Robert Kincaid is a magazine photographer who gets lost in Iowa and just happens to run into the love of his life while asking for directions. This role is quite a contrast to Eastwood's previous "Dirty Harry" films. Robert Redford was also considered for the role of Kincaid.
2. Who directed this beautiful film?

Answer: Clint Eastwood

Clint Eastwood also directed two Oscar winning movies, "Unforgiven" and "Million Dollar Baby." Bruce Beresford was selected before Clint Eastwood, but he wanted to make Francesca's character English. When the studio refused his request, he backed out of the movie.
3. Who plays the role of Francesca Johnson?

Answer: Meryl Streep

Francesca is a lonely housewife (brilliantly played by Meryl Streep) whose quiet life is turned upside down when she meets Robert Kincaid. I read on "Amazon.com" that the other actresses listed were also considered for the role of Francesca. Meryl Streep is said to have gained 15-20 pounds for her role as an Iowa farmwife.
4. Robert Kincaid is a photographer for what magazine?

Answer: National Geographic

Robert comes to Iowa to photograph the bridges of Madison County. He gets lost trying to find The Roseman Bridge. When he stops for directions, he meets Francesca and his life is forever changed. The name of his magazine is mentioned several times during the movie.
5. How long does Robert's and Francesca's romance last?

Answer: 4 days

Francesca's husband and children have left for four days to go to the Illinois State Fair. You hear the phrase "four days" said many times during the course of the movie.
6. On their first trip to the bridge, Robert gives Francesca flowers that he had picked in the field. How does Francesca respond?

Answer: She tells Robert they are poisonous and he drops them on the ground.

This is a really charming part of the movie. Robert is trying to be a gentleman by giving a lady flowers. She tells him they are poisonous, he drops them, and she starts laughing hysterically. She keeps saying over and over, "I don't know why I said that!"
7. How many children do Francesca and her husband have?

Answer: Two

Their children are Michael and Carolyn. The movie begins when Francesca dies and her children come to her home to sort through her things. This is when they find her diary and learn about their mother's affair years ago!
8. While Robert and Francesca are driving down the road, Robert leans over and touches Francesca's leg, while reaching for something in the glove compartment. What is Robert reaching for?

Answer: his cigarettes

You can clearly see that his touch sends a chill down her spine. He takes out a cigarette and offers one to Francesca. Later in the movie - when Richard returns and she's sitting in the car with him - Robert is in the car in front of them. She sees Robert reach over again and remembers his touch. He then hangs her medallion on his rear view mirror - a very emotional part of the movie.
9. Robert shares a story with Francesca about when he visited her hometown in Italy, and Francesca has trouble believing the story. What does he say about her hometown that she struggles to understand?

Answer: That he got off the train and stayed a few days without knowing anyone in town.

She keeps saying over and over, "So you just got off the train without knowing anyone." This is clearly something that she feels she could never do.
10. Robert and Francesca reunite after Francesca's husband dies.

Answer: False

Francesca tries to contact him after her husband's death, but is unsuccessful. Some time later she receives a letter from his attorney stating that Robert has died. Too bad - it would have been a great ending if they had reunited!
