  Once called "the most gifted character actor of our time," Lionel Barrymore (1878-1954) was part of the illustrious Barrymore acting dynasty. Although he garnered success on stage and screen and was a talented actor, writer, director, visual artist, and composer, he never escaped the shadow of his family. Barrymore won the Academy Award for Best Actor in A Free Soul and was nominated for Best Director for Madame X. He is best known for his role as Mr. Potter in It's a Wonderful Life and as the voice of Ebenezer Scrooge. He spent the last two decades of his career playing versions of his signature character—the curmudgeonly but lovable gentleman—in a variety of films. Barrymore worked alongside some of Hollywood's most recognizable names, and his legacy is enshrined at the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

  KILL BILL: VOLUME 2 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY QUENTIN TARANTINO 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Kill Bill: Vol. 2 is a 2004 martial arts film directed by Quentin Tarantino, and the second part of a two-film revenge saga. The story follows Beatrix Kiddo, also known as The Bride, who continues her quest to avenge the brutal betrayal by her former comrades in the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad. As she hunts down those responsible for the massacre at her wedding, the film explores themes of vengeance, betrayal, and redemption, blending western, samurai, and kung fu genres. Tarantino's signature style includes sharp dialogue, dynamic action sequences, and an exploration of complex relationships. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  "The brothel scene where the Bride meets Esteban Vallejo (played by Michael Parks) was the last scene filmed. It was shot at a real Mexican brothel, with the female extras being actual prostitutes who worked there." 
    
  "Robert Rodriguez composed the film's score for just one dollar. In return, Tarantino agreed to direct a segment of Rodriguez's Sin City (2005) for the same fee." 
    
  "Pai Mei’s three-inch punch is a reference to Bruce Lee’s famous three-inch knockout punch." 
    
  "After the credits, an alternate take shows the Bride ripping out one of the Crazy 88’s eyes."
