THE EXORCIST THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY WILLIAM FRIEDKIN CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE ABOUT THE FILM The Exorcist is a 1973 supernatural horror film directed by William Friedkin, based on William Peter Blatty's novel. The story follows Chris MacNeil, an actress whose 12-year-old daughter, Regan, begins exhibiting strange and violent behavior. As doctors fail to find a cause, Chris turns to Father Damien Karras, a Jesuit priest and psychologist, who suspects her daughter may be possessed by a demon. The film explores themes of faith, good versus evil, and the battle for the soul, set against a backdrop of chilling supernatural events, making it one of the most iconic and unsettling horror films in cinema history. TRIVIA SAMPLES: “Due to threats against Linda Blair from religious extremists who believed the film glorified Satan, Warner Bros. provided her with bodyguards for six months after the film's release.” “On the first day of filming the exorcism sequence, Linda Blair's foul-mouthed dialogue so shocked the gentlemanly Max von Sydow that he forgot his lines.” “The Exorcist became Warner Bros.' highest-grossing film of all time when adjusted for inflation.” “The original teaser trailer, which featured quick flashes of a white-faced demon, was banned in several theaters for being too frightening.” “If adjusted for inflation, The Exorcist would still hold the title of the highest-grossing R-rated film of all time.”Mostra libro

Handel’s Music for the Royal Fireworks and Water Music, two of his greatest orchestral achievements, have become synonymous with mid-18th-century England and with the pomp, ceremony and tradition of British royalty. But is this music necessarily synonymous with Handel? Where did his eclecticism and experimentalism come from? How and why did he conquer the emerging genre of the English oratorio and what were the circumstances that allowed him to become one of opera’s greatest composers? This revealing audio biography is accompanied by musical examples drawn from his orchestral and instrumental music, his cantatas, oratorios, operas and those two famous royal commissions.Mostra libro
It would be no exaggeration to say that James Dean has been more mythologized than any other actor in history, a development due more to his off-screen personality and conduct than the films he actually starred in. Much of Dean’s appeal derives from his humble and ordinary origins, and audiences are drawn to the romance of the Indiana farm boy who catapulted to the top of the motion picture industry in a single year — the same year that would see him die. Of course, James Dean remains well-known for being anything but humble and ordinary. As famous as his films are, Dean’s story is inextricably tied to his love for racing cars and his death in a high speed car crash. Marlon Brando. Few names in the acting profession evoke such a strong, almost visceral reaction. Over the course of his long, prolific career, he was considered perhaps the greatest actor of the 20th century as well as one of the most complicated and misunderstood. Uniquely able to be both emotionally charged and technically constrained in the same performance, he single-handedly changed the direction of not only the American style of acting, influencing successors such as Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and even Johnny Depp, but the acting profession on a global scale. His iconic interpretations of characters such as Stanley Kowalski (A Streetcar Named Desire), Terry Malloy (On the Waterfront) and Vito Corleone (The Godfather) have been forever burned into the collective memory of film and theatre aficionados, scholars and critics for their immense passion, rage, love, defiance, vulnerability, cruelty and tenderness – basically, the full spectrum of the human condition. With several Oscars and Golden Globes to his name, Brando’s contributions remain the gold standard of the acting craft, and the American Film Institute has listed him as the 4th greatest screen legend in history.Mostra libro
