  ARGO 
  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.”

  The artistic creations made between about the 1860s and the 1970s are considered modern art. According to history, a Frenchman named Edouard Manet witnessed modern art in the 18th century. However, it was thought that the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood had begun modern painting before the Frenchman, given the works they produced throughout the 18th and 19th centuries lacked the typical academic art forms. Following the Pre-Raphaelites, various changes and movements occurred in the field of art.

  American roots music, also known as Americana music, can be challenging to categorize, spanning the genres of jazz, bluegrass, country, blues, rock and roll, and an assortment of variations in between. In The Downhome Sound, Mandi Bates Bailey explores the messages, artists, community, and appeal of this seemingly disparate musical collective. To understand the art form's intended meanings and typical audiences, she analyzes lyrics and interviews Americana artists, journalists, and festival organizers to uncover a desire for inclusion and diversity. Bailey also conducts an experiment to assess listener reception relative to more commercial forms of music. The result is an in-depth study of the political and cultural influence of Americana and its implications for social justice.

  TAKE IT EASY™ isn't about a new way of doing improv, nor is it meant to replace your own style or approach. Instead it's a mindset that can inform your performance and your approach to improvisation. The exercises and ideas in here will give you more freedom onstage, help you be less attached to the outcome and more in the moment, and generally see you having more fun. 
  This is not an ‘introduction to improv’ book, nor is it a how-to manual. This book is a collection of thoughts and observations designed to give people a different perspective on their craft, and it also includes games and exercises for people to do on their own or to bring to their group to reinforce some of the principles and ideas and thoughts expressed herein. 
  Improv is, paradoxically, a pursuit that requires both dedication and an absence of trying. For when a player is trying too hard, they will inevitably fail. This book, by longtime improviser and improv teacher Ryan Millar, is filled with stories, thoughts, advice, and exercises to help players improve their improv, and do more by doing less.  
  TAKE IT EASY™ is the chillest way to supercharge your improv.
