  Thomas Henry Lyon - Architect...

  Thomas Henry Lyon (1869–1953) was an important architect whose work has often been ignored, because he did not take up the Modernist ideas of many of his contemporaries. His work was also almost entirely concentrated in either Cambridge or the edge of Dartmoor. His contribution to the inter-War development of the Colleges of Cambridge was immense and often overlooked: this book seeks to restore his reputation.
  
   
  The book restores to public consciousness the extensive architectural work carried out by Lyon, particularly in Cambridge, and does not gloss over the disaster of a church in Wembley which had to be closed after less than 30 years. It also looks at the important work he carried out in South Australia in the pre-1914 age, as well as his masterly reconstruction and furnishing of Sidney Sussex College chapel, which established his reputation. It has been extensively researched in archives across England, but particularly in those of the Colleges of Cambridge.

  BLADE RUNNER 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY RIDLEY SCOTT 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Blade Runner is a 1982 science fiction film directed by Ridley Scott, set in a dystopian future Los Angeles. It follows Rick Deckard, a former police officer tasked with hunting down and "retiring" rogue replicants—biologically engineered humans. The replicants, led by Roy Batty, have escaped to Earth seeking longer lifespans. As Deckard pursues them, he grapples with questions about humanity, identity, and morality. The film blends neo-noir, cyberpunk, and philosophical themes, exploring artificial intelligence, empathy, and the boundaries between human and machine. With its atmospheric visuals and haunting score by Vangelis, Blade Runner became a cult classic. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  "Director Ridley Scott and director of photography Jordan Cronenweth achieved the famous 'shining eyes' effect by using a technique invented by Fritz Lang known as the 'Schüfftan Process.' Light is bounced into the actors' eyes off of a piece of half-mirrored glass mounted at a 45-degree angle to the camera." 
    
  "Sir Ridley Scott regards this movie as probably his most personal and complete work." 
    
  "According to Rutger Hauer's biography, the final confrontation between Rick Deckard and Roy Batty was initially planned to be a fight in an old gym using martial arts, like kung-fu. Hauer disliked the idea, saying it was 'too Bruce Lee', and proposed Batty chasing Deckard instead."

  For No Reason at All - The...

  The years following the signing of the Armistice saw a transformation of attitudes regarding military conflict as America attempted to digest the First World War. During these years popular film culture in the US created new ways of addressing the impact of the war on individuals and society. Filmmakers created works that promoted their own ideas about the depiction of wartime service—ideas that frequently conflicted with established, heroic tropes for the portrayal of warfare on film. 
   
   
   
  Filmmakers spent years modifying existing standards and working through storytelling options before achieving a consensus regarding the fitting method for rendering war on screen. This process reached its peak during the Pre-Code Era of the early 1930s when the initially prevailing narrative would be briefly supplanted by an entirely new approach that questioned the premises of wartime service. The rhetoric of these films argued for an antiwar stance that questioned the wartime experience. 
   
   
   
  For No Reason at All: The Changing Narrative of the First World War in American Film discusses a variety of Great War–themed films made from 1915 to the present, tracing the changing approaches to the conflict over time.
