  THE HATEFUL EIGHT 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY QUENTIN TARANTINO 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  The Hateful Eight is a 2015 American Western thriller directed by Quentin Tarantino. Set in a remote Wyoming haberdashery during a snowstorm, eight strangers seek refuge, including bounty hunters, outlaws, and a sheriff. As tensions rise, secrets are revealed, and alliances are formed amidst growing suspicion. The film explores themes of betrayal, revenge, and justice, with sharp, witty dialogue and intense confrontations. The confined setting and escalating violence reflect the harsh realities of post-Civil War America. With a focus on character-driven suspense, Tarantino blends dark humor and brutal action to examine moral ambiguity and survival in a hostile environment. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “After the script was leaked online, Quentin Tarantino initially didn’t want to make the film. However, after a brief reading in Los Angeles, the cast became excited about the project. With Samuel L. Jackson's encouragement, Tarantino decided to go ahead with it.” 
    
  “Some of Ennio Morricone's compositions for the film were previously unused scores from The Thing (1982), a movie starring Kurt Russell.” 
    
  “At one point, Joe Gage (Michael Madsen) says, "A bastard’s work is never done," which was a tagline for the poster of Inglourious Basterds (2009).” 
    
  “Daisy's song was performed live by Jennifer Jason Leigh on set. The song, along with sounds of wood being hammered and dialogue by Kurt Russell, is featured in the film’s soundtrack.”

  Art History Rococo

  Victoria Charles, Klaus H. Carl

  Deriving from the French word rocaille, in reference to the curved forms of shellfish, and the Italian Barocco, the French created the term Rococo. Appearing at the beginning of the 18th-century, it rapidly spread to the whole of Europe. Extravagant and light, Rococo responded perfectly to the spontaneity of the aristocracy of the time. In many aspects, this art was linked to its predecessor, Baroque, and it is thus also referred to as late Baroque style. While artists such as Tiepolo, Boucher and Reynolds carried the style to its apogee, the movement was often condemned for its superficiality. In the second half of the 18th-century, Rococo began its decline. At the end of the century, facing the advent of Neoclassicism, it was plunged into obscurity. It had to wait nearly a century before art historians could restore it to the radiance of its golden age, which is rediscovered in this work by Klaus H. Carl and Victoria Charles.

  Through firsthand accounts and interviews with survivors, author Michael Skidgell attempts to make sense of one of Hartford's worst tragedies. 
   
   
   
  Almost 7,000 fans eagerly packed into the Ringling Brothers big top on July 6, 1944. With a single careless act, an afternoon at the "Greatest Show on Earth" quickly became one of terror and tragedy as the paraffin-coated circus tent caught fire. Panicked crowds rushed for the few exits, but in minutes, the tent collapsed on those still struggling to escape below. A total of 168 lives were lost, many of them children, with many more injured and forever scarred by the events. Hartford and the surrounding communities reeled in the aftermath as investigators searched for the source of the fire and the responsible parties.
