Sinopsis

Born in Krasnoiarsk in 1848, Surikov died in Moscow in 1916. He is one of the great masters of history painting, and he occupies a special place in Russian culture. Like Delacroix, he believed that history was not a pretext for nice painting but an inexorable drama with neither culprits nor innocents but rather people driven by invisible forces. He was very knowledgeable about Russian history, and his paintings deal with crucial moments. He sought in historical events the answers to pressing problems of his time. Here is a book about a painter little-known in the West, analysed with understanding by one of the greatest Russian art critics.

    BIRDMAN 
    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
      
    FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY ALEJANDRO G. IÑÁRRITU 
      
    CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
      
    ABOUT THE FILM 
    Birdman (2014), directed by Alejandro G. Iñárritu, follows Riggan Thomson, a faded Hollywood actor known for his role as the superhero "Birdman." Struggling with his past fame, Riggan attempts to reinvent himself by writing, directing, and starring in a Broadway play. The film explores themes of identity, self-worth, and the pressures of fame, blurring the lines between reality and fantasy. Shot in long takes to create the illusion of a single continuous scene, Birdman delves into the complexities of artistic expression, personal redemption, and the challenges of escaping the shadows of past successes. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    "The movie was rehearsed and shot in sequence, so the editing process only took two weeks." 
      
    "Only sixteen visible cuts can be found in the entire film." 
      
    "During filming, Edward Norton and Michael Keaton kept track of the actors' flubs, with Emma Stone making the most errors and Zach Galifianakis the fewest." 
      
    "Much of the film was shot inside Broadway's St. James Theatre, where the actors had to deliver up to fifteen pages of dialogue in one take while hitting precisely choreographed marks." 
      
    "Edward Norton's character parodies his own reputation for being difficult to work with, similar to the way Michael Keaton's Birdman mirrors his earlier role as Batman."

    A grotesque and hilarious satire about the American dream, suburban living, and the corrupting influence of power, set in a world that could only have sprung from the unhinged and brilliant mind of John Waters. Listen as Waters himself acts out each role!On the verge of a suburban mental health crisis, frazzled and wildly unstable housewife Peggy (immortalized by Mink Stole on-screen) runs away from home with her maid and partner in crime, Grizelda (played with spectacular gumption by the sizzling Jean Hill), only to end up in Mortville, a shantytown filled with society’s rejects. Mortville is run by the evil Queen Carlotta, who parades through the cardboard streets taunting and terrorizing her subjects.John Waters’s wild and visionary fable lampoons everything from the staid conservatism of the American dream to race and class relations. The New York Times ranked Desperate Living at “the highest peak atop [John Waters’] trash heap of a filmography.” High praise indeed!A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
