  DJANGO UNCHAINED 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY QUENTIN TARANTINO 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Django Unchained is a 2012 Western film directed by Quentin Tarantino. Set in the pre-Civil War South, it follows Django, a freed slave, who teams up with Dr. King Schultz, a German bounty hunter, to track down the notorious Brittle brothers. As they work together, Django seeks to rescue his wife, Broomhilda, from the brutal plantation owner, Calvin Candie. The film explores themes of slavery, revenge, and justice, with Tarantino’s signature blend of dark humor, stylized violence, and sharp dialogue. It offers a revisionist take on the Western genre, blending historical commentary with cinematic spectacle. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “During the filming of a dinner scene, Leonardo DiCaprio had to stop because he found it difficult to use so many racial slurs. Samuel L. Jackson pulled him aside and told him, "Motherfucker, this is just another Tuesday for us." 
    
  “Jamie Foxx used his own horse, Cheetah, in the movie, a horse he received as a birthday gift four years prior. 
    
  “Leonardo DiCaprio was uncomfortable playing such a racist character. However, Tarantino convinced him to portray the character in an even more menacing manner, assuring him that if he didn't take it to the extreme, people would hold it against him forever. 
    
  “According to critic Alex Ross, the alliance between Django (Jamie Foxx) and Dr. King Schultz (Christoph Waltz) is not as unrealistic as it may seem. In the 1840s, many German revolutionaries and progressives left Europe for the U.S., where they often became involved in the anti-slavery movement.
