Sinopsis

Bern Minster, the most important late Gothic church building in Switzerland, together with the new town hall, represents the remarkable awakening of the free city of Bern in the 15th century. The prerequisite for this were the favourable political and economic circumstances, promoted by an upwardly mobile class of merchants who rose to the ranks of the city’s patrician class. At the laying of the foundation stone in 1421, the mighty aspirations associated with the building project were already manifest in terms of size and expense. The city commissioned Matthäus Ensinger, son of the famous Strasbourg and Ulm cathedral master builder. Despite the lengthy construction period, Ensinger’s plans resulted in a church building of great harmony, with superb features including the medieval stained-glass windows, the opulently decorated vaults spanning the period from late Gothic to Renaissance and the Portal of the Last Judgement with its rich array of figures.

FORREST GUMP 
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
  
FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY ROBERT ZEMECKIS 
  
CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
  
ABOUT THE FILM 
Forrest Gump is a heartwarming drama about a kind-hearted man from Alabama with a low IQ who inadvertently influences several major historical events in the 20th century. The film follows Forrest’s extraordinary life, from his childhood with a loving mother to his experiences as a college football star, soldier in Vietnam, ping-pong champion, and shrimp boat captain. The film explores themes of destiny, love, perseverance, and the unpredictability of life, while highlighting the impact of historical events. Told from Forrest’s unique perspective, it combines humor, drama, and emotional depth, reflecting the power of human resilience and simplicity. 
  
TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
  
“Tom Hanks was not paid for this film. Instead, he took percentage points, which ultimately netted him around $40 million.” 
  
“The line, "My name is Forrest Gump. People call me Forrest Gump," was ad-libbed by Tom Hanks during filming. Director Robert Zemeckis liked it so much that he decided to keep it in.” 
  
“With every transition of Forrest's age, one thing remains the same: in the first scene of each transition, he wears a blue plaid shirt.” 
  
“Tom Hanks' younger brother, Jim Hanks, doubled for him during many of his numerous running sequences.” 
  
“The necklace worn by Lieutenant Dan is a rosary with a Saint Christopher medal, inscribed "Protect Us In Combat." It was worn in Vietnam by Gary Sinise's brother-in-law, Jack Treese, in 1967-68.”
