  THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY WES ANDERSON 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  The Royal Tenenbaums is a quirky comedy-drama directed by Wes Anderson, centered around the dysfunctional Tenenbaum family. The film follows the lives of three gifted siblings—Chas, Margot, and Richie—who experience early success but later face personal struggles and failure. Their eccentric father, Royal, returns to their lives, claiming he has a terminal illness, and attempts to reconcile with his children and ex-wife. The film explores themes of family dysfunction, lost potential, and redemption, with Anderson’s signature use of dry humor, visual symmetry, and an eclectic soundtrack, creating a deeply emotional yet whimsical narrative. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “The hand shown with a BB lodged between its knuckles does not belong to Ben Stiller, but rather to Andrew Wilson, Owen and Luke Wilson's brother. When they were children, Owen shot a BB gun at Andrew's hand, and the BB remained there ever since.” 
    
  “The original hawk that played Mordecai was kidnapped during production and held for ransom. Due to time constraints, the production used a different bird with more white feathers as a replacement.” 
    
  “Gene Hackman revealed in interviews that he hesitated to take the role because he felt he had been insensitive to his own family at times. He asked them whether they would feel uncomfortable with him playing the character. They encouraged him to accept the role.”

  SubsidenceA daughter longs to guide her mother through the hardest of journeys of memory loss, paving a way with her own remembrance; for memory is an actor’s most powerful tool. Before the settling and subsidence of life, Hayley prepares to perform a show to honour her mother, Joan. Death is never convenient and despite the theatre being booked, posters printed, and tickets sold, it comes for Joan just before opening night. Subsidence gives grace to deep wounds laid bare as memory fails but love endures; deep, fathomless, patient love. A love that has come full circle, filled with hope and promise. The actor strides across grey days of grief, into the all-conquering silver spotlight of centerstage, to share a life well-loved and lived. Endorsement:	'Subsidence is a beautiful and tender rendering of memoir, driven by the author’s need to remember and honour her mother, who lived with dementia. O’Leary pulls the threads of memory together in a mesmerising weave: a gossamer spell. Her lived experience of theatre and her childhood with her mother are woven across timelines both past and present in this stunning experimental work. Subsidence is vital reading for those with loved ones experiencing memory loss.'–	Anna Jacobson (Author of Amnesia Findings)

  Audio Snaps Volume Two - the...

  Audio Snaps is a series of 100-minute audio books, each featuring a dozen or so stories from each of my five books. Black Vinyl White Powder is a bit different from the other books in that it was written as a continuous narrative moving through story after story. So the best way to fit it into the formula for the series was simply to read the first six chapters (later, I'll do the rest of the book). Black Vinyl White Powder is a history of the British pop music with insight into the recreational drugs of the the day and their relevance. Since I was there, and a part of it, it's very much written from my own point of view. The reviews when it was first published were exceptional, for instance - "One of the most authoritative, intelligent, diligently researched, 
  conscientiously indexed, and thoroughly unpretentious disquisitions on 
  the history of the British pop scene yet written." SUNDAY TELEGRAPH - "Napier-Bell provides a one-stop-shop education in what the music business – as opposed to the music itself – has always been about: get rich, get high, get laid." THE INDEPENDENT - "His preoccupation with trivia is what makes his book so compelling and informative. Napier-Bell knows that if you scratch the surface of pop music you will find more surface."
