Schindler's List - The Ultimate...

Film Trivia Metaverse

SCHINDLER'S LIST 
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
  
FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY STEVEN SPIELBERG 
  
CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
  
ABOUT THE FILM 
Schindler's List is a powerful historical drama directed by Steven Spielberg, set during the Holocaust. It follows Oskar Schindler, a German businessman who initially seeks profit by employing Jewish workers in his enamelware factory. As he witnesses the atrocities committed by the Nazis, Schindler transforms from an opportunist into a humanitarian, striving to save as many lives as possible. The film explores themes of morality, sacrifice, and the impact of one individual’s actions in the face of overwhelming evil. Shot in black and white, it emphasizes the stark, tragic realities of World War II and the Holocaust. 
  
TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
  
“To gather costumes for 20,000 extras, the costume designer took out advertisements seeking clothing. As economic conditions were poor in Poland, many people were eager to sell clothing they still owned from the 1930s and 1940s.” 
  
“When survivor Mila Pfefferberg was introduced to Ralph Fiennes on the set, she began shaking uncontrollably, as he reminded her too much of the real Amon Goeth.” 
  
“The original missing list of Schindler's Jews was found in a suitcase, along with his written legacy, hidden in the attic of Schindler's flat in Hildesheim in 1999. Oskar Schindler had stayed there during the last few months before his death in 1974.”

Secret Life of the City - How...

Hanna Hagen Bjørgaas

Come along on an informative, whirlwind tour of urban species and discover that you are surrounded by wild nature, even in your own backyard. 
 
 
 
When biologist Hanna Bjørgaas spots a fairy cup lichen in Antarctica, she is surprised to recognize it from her own backyard in Oslo. When she returns home, she embarks on a journey into urban nature, visiting city parks, cemeteries, and concrete rooftops to investigate the species that live in urban spaces. Along the way, she meets corvids, songbirds, ants, pigeons, bats, sparrows, fungi, and linden trees—and the experts who study their surprising abilities to survive, and thrive, in the city. 
 
 
 
As Bjørgaas discovers, urban nature—and its unique mixture of species that have never lived together before in Earth's history—is valuable. More than half of the world's human population lives in densely populated areas—and plants and animals have followed us into cities. Secret Life of the City invites us to pay more attention to the sounds, sights, and smells of urban nature right outside our door. 
 
 
 
A treasure trove of fascinating flora and fauna, this wonderful book offers a plea to save our city plants, animals, and fungi before we lose them, too.

James I Charles I Commomwealth &...

Gilbert Abbott A'Beckett

Step right up for the most uproariously irreverent chapter of Gilbert Abbott A’Beckett’s Comic History of England—where crowns are comedy props and history’s biggest egos trip over their own dogma! 
Meet James I, the "Wisest Fool in Christendom," who preached divine right while his pet favorite, the Duke of Buckingham, turned the court into a scandalous farce. Then comes Charles I, whose stubbornness cost him his crown (and his head), thanks to a Parliament with a very sharp grievance list—and a little help from the ill-fated Earl of Stafford. 
Enter Oliver Cromwell, the Puritan party-pooper who banned Christmas, crushed Ireland, and somehow made republicanism duller than a Sunday sermon. But just when you think the chaos can’t get worse, in stumbles Richard Cromwell, his hapless son, who proved that ruling England was not a hereditary talent. Spoiler: The Republic collapses faster than a house of cards in a hurricane. 
Narrated with wicked wit by Charles Featherstone, this uproarious installment skewers the Stuarts like a royal roast—where kings are klutzes, parliaments are punchlines, and the only thing sacred is the absurdity of power.
