    DUNKIRK 
    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
      
    FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY CHRISTOPHER NOLAN 
      
    CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
      
    ABOUT THE FILM 
    Dunkirk is a 2017 war film directed by Christopher Nolan that portrays the intense Dunkirk evacuation during World War II. The story unfolds from three perspectives: land, sea, and air. On the beach, thousands of Allied soldiers face the imminent threat of German forces while awaiting rescue. Civilians, represented by a boat owner named Dawson, cross the English Channel to assist in the evacuation. In the sky, RAF pilots engage in fierce aerial combat to protect the evacuation efforts. The film emphasizes suspense, survival, and the human experience of war, with minimal dialogue and a heavy focus on visual storytelling. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    “The end credits mention that twelve of the original "little ships" that participated in the Dunkirk evacuation are depicted in the film, reenacting their role from 1940.” 
      
    “The ticking sounds featured prominently in Hans Zimmer's score were recorded by the composer using one of Christopher Nolan's own pocket watches. These sounds were then manipulated with synthesizers for the film's soundtrack.” 
      
    “Despite the constant presence of German bombers and shooters, German soldiers are never directly shown in the film. They only appear out of focus and in shadows in the final scenes.”
