PLATOON
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION
FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY OLIVER STONE
CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE
ABOUT THE FILM
Platoon (1986), directed by Oliver Stone, is a gritty Vietnam War film that follows Chris Taylor, a young and idealistic U.S. Army recruit, who is thrust into the harsh realities of combat. Assigned to a platoon in South Vietnam, Taylor faces moral and physical challenges as he navigates the brutal conflict. The film explores the psychological toll of war through the contrasting leadership styles of two sergeants: the callous Sergeant Barnes and the compassionate Sergeant Elias. The film delves into themes of loyalty, survival, and the moral ambiguity of war, offering a raw and realistic portrayal of the Vietnam War experience.
TRIVIA SAMPLES:
“According to Oliver Stone, he intentionally cast Tom Berenger and Willem Dafoe against type. Berenger, who played the ruthless Sergeant Barnes, was mainly known for playing good guys, while Dafoe, who had often played villains, took on the heroic role of Sergeant Elias. The casting was a success, earning both actors Oscar nominations.”
“Charlie Sheen credited Keith David with saving his life. During filming in an open-door Huey gunship, the helicopter banked too sharply, throwing Sheen toward the open door. David grabbed him and pulled him back inside just in time.”
“Lieutenant Wolfe’s character is frequently used in U.S. military leadership courses as an example of how not to behave as a junior officer.”

Baskerville - The Biography of a...

Simon Garfield

A compact and charming history of the classic Enlightenment font by the New York Times bestselling author of Just My Type. 
 
 
 
When Baskerville was first created in 1757, there was concern that it would damage readers' eyes with its combination of thin and thick strokes and tapering serifs. Yet 250 years later, it remains one of the most commonly used typefaces in books of all kinds. As bestselling author Simon Garfield tells it, the tale of this elegant typeface is one of painstaking dedication. The font's creator, John Baskerville, was a maverick lacquer maker and master printer who made it his life's mission to achieve the font's perfection. His efforts culminated in his magnificent Bible, acclaimed as the finest ever made. Garfield explores why Baskerville's own body was dug up and buried many times before finally being allowed to rest in peace, and examines his legacy through the work of his wife, Sarah Baskerville—one of the first powerful women in the printing world—and the archivists and enthusiasts working to preserve the font's original steel punches today.
