    KILL BILL: VOLUME 1 
    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
      
    FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY QUENTIN TARANTINO 
      
    CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
      
    ABOUT THE FILM 
    Kill Bill: Volume 1 is a 2003 action film directed by Quentin Tarantino. The story follows "The Bride," a former assassin who is left for dead after a brutal massacre at her wedding rehearsal, orchestrated by her former team, the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad. She survives a four-year coma and embarks on a mission of vengeance against those who wronged her, including her former mentor, Bill. The film is a blend of martial arts, samurai, and revenge genres, featuring stylish violence, visually striking sequences, and elements of both Western and Eastern cinematic influences, all underpinned by Tarantino's signature storytelling. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    "The Bride’s iconic yellow outfit is an homage to Bruce Lee’s costume in his final film, Game of Death (1978)." 
      
    "The scene where the Bride splits a baseball in two with a samurai sword was filmed for real on set, with Zoë Bell, Uma Thurman’s stunt double, performing the stunt." 
      
    "Quentin Tarantino owns the 'Pussy Wagon' from Kill Bill and drove it as his daily vehicle to promote Kill Bill: Vol. 2 (2004). He even lent it for use in Missy Elliott’s music video for 'I’m Really Hot,' as well as Lady Gaga and Beyoncé’s 'Telephone' video." 
      
    "Over four hundred fifty gallons of fake blood were used for both Kill Bill movies, as revealed by special effects artist Christopher Allen Nelson."

     In Egg and Spoon, the artist and illustrator Rose Blake tells the story of a childhood fuelled on art and creativity, infused with travel and steeled by the more quotidian aspects of family life growing up with the artist Peter Blake. Surrounded by a cast of originals and eccentrics and taking in backdrops such as London, L.A. and Paris, Blake creates poetic snapshots of a family, with the joys of a life dedicated to art and the inevitable fragilities and poignancy of age and, pertinently, ill health. The effect is that of a literary photo album, with all the charm and character and emotional intensity those documents communicate.

    From War to Creativity: A Journey of Healing Through the Lens

    Anchored in the author’s own experiences growing up in a war-torn country, the story extends beyond personal history to explore universal themes of hope, resilience, and the healing power of creative expression. Through vivid storytelling and heartfelt reflections, listeners are invited to consider how creativity can help them navigate life’s challenges.
