  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY BEN AFFLECK 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Argo is a historical drama set during the 1979 Iran Hostage Crisis. The film follows Tony Mendez, a CIA operative, who devises a daring plan to rescue six American diplomats trapped in Tehran. Posing as a Hollywood film producer scouting locations for a fake sci-fi movie, Mendez teams up with Hollywood professionals to create a cover story. The movie blends suspense, political intrigue, and dark humor, highlighting themes of deception, bravery, and international cooperation. Directed by Ben Affleck, Argo masterfully portrays the tension of a high-stakes operation amidst the backdrop of a volatile political climate. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Former President Jimmy Carter commented in an interview with Piers Morgan that he believed the film was a 'great drama' and deserved to win the Oscar for Best Picture. However, he pointed out that although 'ninety percent of the contributions to the plan were Canadian,' the movie gives nearly full credit to the American CIA. He suggested that the true hero was Canadian Ambassador Ken Taylor.” 
    
  “For the opening scene, the director of photography handed out 8mm cameras to certain people in the crowd to make the scene feel authentic, as though it was real footage of the riot.” 
    
  “The Iranian official seen on archive footage at the end of the film, issuing threats against Canada for their role in the rescue, was later executed by the regime he served.”

  Textile Landscapes demonstrates how to develop your approach to textile art with a focus on using found objects and paint and stitch on cloth and paper. 
  Cas explains how to exploit the contrast between the hands-on textural quality of working with fabrics and threads and the spontaneity and movement of brush marks to lend a painterly quality to your work.
  
  She begins with the basics – keeping a sketchbook to generate ideas, painting  and stitching on cloth and on paper and working digitally; Inspiring Landscapes looks at natural and urban space, the changing seasons and great landscapes as well as intimate spaces and travel diaries; Painting and Marking with Cloth explains the practical aspects of painting and dyeing cloth and how to make connections between paint, print, dye, stencil and stitch; Stitch-scapes looks at the different forms of landscape, experimenting with photographs and prints and how to translate those images using ink, stitch, abstract and collage techniques and then at how to transform the image using digital techniques; On Closer Inspection covers using elements and details from landscape and the environment as found objects and for research; finally People and Place explores the relationship we have with the outdoors and the built environment, as well as personal interpretations of place.
  
  The book includes artworks by the author that explore the UK, USA, Europe and Australia, as well as works by other internationally renowned textile artists. A creative guide ideal for textile artists of all levels – students, teachers and practising artists and makers – to make unique and beautiful work inspired by the world around us.
