Dunkirk - The Ultimate Trivia...

Film Trivia Metaverse

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.”

Through the Eyes of a Dancer -...

Wendy Perron

Through the Eyes of a Dancer compiles the writings of noted dance critic and editor Wendy Perron. In pieces for The SoHo Weekly News, Village Voice, The New York Times, and Dance Magazine, Perron limns the larger aesthetic and theoretical shifts in the dance world since the 1960s. She surveys a wide range of styles and genres, from downtown experimental performance to ballets at the Metropolitan Opera House. In opinion pieces, interviews, reviews, brief memoirs, blog posts, and contemplations on the choreographic process, she gives readers an up-close, personalized look at dancing as an art form. Dancers, choreographers, teachers, college dance students—and anyone interested in the intersection between dance and journalism—will find Perron's probing and insightful writings inspiring. Through the Eyes of a Dancer is a nuanced microcosm of dance's recent globalization and modernization that also provides an opportunity for new dancers to look back on the traditions and styles that preceded their own.
