[Answer] 3. From one bucket to another - In which 1976 Stephen King film was the main character doused with a bucket of pig's blood?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "3. From one bucket to another - In which 1976 Stephen King film was the main character doused with a bucket of pig's blood?"



...1. Christine 2. Misery 3. Cat's Eye 4. Carrie Directed by Brian De Palma in 1976, "Carrie" was the first of King's novels to be adapted for the screen (and also his first novel altogether). Interestingly, "Carrie" was one of the most critically-renowned films in the King canon though it was one of the lowest-grossing of De Palma's filmography. The movie starred Sissy Spacek as the titular character, a girl with unspeakable psychic powers as she went through her final days at high school under the torment of the other students and her mother (played by Piper Laurie). During prom in one of the climactic scenes of the film, a bucket of pig's blood was dropped on her head as a prank. This set off a cataclysmic event in which Carrie killed most of those in attendance. One bucket of blood is enough to feed a bucket hungry for blood, right?

[Answer] 4. I am an English Poet and writer of the 18th century - and a muted colour often associated with the elderly. What is my name?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "4. I am an English Poet and writer of the 18th century - and a muted colour often associated with the elderly. What is my name?"



...1. Percy Purple 2. Thomas Gray 3. William Green 4. George Mellow-Yellow Thomas Gray was born in 1716 and died in 1771. Not only a well known writer, he was also a professor at the Cambridge University. As a child he was rather delicate, so spent the greater part of his spare time reading all the great classics. As a young man, he went to university to study law, but instead concentrated on reading great literature written through the ages, and the somewhat lighter literature of his time - well, comparatively speaking at any rate. He was also very fond of music and playing the harpsichord. In his twenties he began writing poetry, and also commenced a much deeper study of the great literary works. This earned him the reputation as one of the most learned men of his time and a predominant poet of the 18th century. His most famous poem is "Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard". Just to give you a glimpse of the more human side of this writer, though, Gray was terrified of being burned to death in a fire, so he always kept a steel bar installed on a part of his bedroom window where he lived. This meant that, in case of a fire, he could tie his sheets to the bar, and climb down to safety. The image of a sophisticated university professor slithering down a set of sheets tends to make my lips twitch a bit.

[Answer] 2. B - Next we have Benazir Bhutto, the first woman ever elected to lead a Muslim state. Which country did she lead from 1988 to 1990 and then again from 1993 to 1996?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "2. B - Next we have Benazir Bhutto, the first woman ever elected to lead a Muslim state. Which country did she lead from 1988 to 1990 and then again from 1993 to 1996?"



...1. Bangladesh 2. Libya 3. Saudi Arabia 4. Pakistan Benazir Bhutto was born on the 21st of June 1953 and was the eldest child of former Pakistani Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. Zulfikar founded the democratic socialist Pakistan People's Party (PPP) in 1967, and served as its leader until his death in 1979. From 1979 until 1983 the party was led by his wife Nusrat before their daughter Benazir took over upon Nusrat's death. Benazir Bhutto was first elected into the position of prime minister in 1988 following a very large swing in voting towards the PPP and away from the military government of General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq. Throughout her first two years in power she struggled against the President Ghulam Ishaq Khan, who still had the power to veto any policies put forward by the prime minister. In 1990, stories of corruption appeared in the media, discrediting Benazir Bhutto, and she was eventually dismissed by Khan in August of that year. Bhutto was elected for a second time in 1993, narrowly ousting Nawaz Sharif of the Pakistan Muslim League out of the position that he'd held since 1990. However, more charges of corruption again discredited Bhutto and she was dismissed by President Farooq Leghari in 1996. She went into exile in Dubai in 1998. She was attempting a return to power after having lived in exile for some years when she was assassinated in a motorcade in December 2007.

[Answer] 5. Painting: I saw a painting the other day - it was that one with the big-nosed face on sticks, by the chap with the moustache. Which artist's name has slipped my mind?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "5. Painting: I saw a painting the other day - it was that one with the big-nosed face on sticks, by the chap with the moustache. Which artist's name has slipped my mind?"



...1. Sir Joshua Reynolds 2. Sandro Botticelli 3. Salvador Dali 4. Jackson Pollock The Surrealist artist Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dal� i Dom�nech (Salvador Dal�) painted the big-nosed face on sticks, officially titled "El sue�o" ("Sleep"), in 1937. In his imagination, he visualised the act of sleeping as a monster supported by the crutches (sticks) of reality. This charismatic Spaniard's artistic endeavours went beyond painting and included furniture design, jewellery, film, set design, fashion, and performance art. Many of Dal�'s works have disturbing, controversial or socially taboo subject matter, but are nevertheless objects of great imagination and fascinating wonder. One of Dal�'s quotes, often found in articles summarising his works, expresses the view of both the artist and many admirers of his art - "...just because I don't know the meaning of my art, does not mean it has no meaning...". Jackson Pollock (1912-1956) was given the epithet "Jack the Dripper" by "Time" magazine in 1956, from his unique style of "action painting". He preferred to use things such as sticks, trowels, knives, and dripping or throwing to apply paint to the canvas. He may even have employed his nose as a painting tool, although this is an unsubstantiated theory. Sir Joshua Reynolds (1723-1792) was the first President of the Royal Academy of Arts, and painted many portraits, mainly in the Grand Style that idealised the subjects. Noses present in his portraits are all beautifully proportioned and not at all given to action or ambiguous interpretation. Sandro Botticelli (1459-1510) was an artist of the Florentine school, noted for paintings such as "The Birth of Venus". Close examination of the shapes and sizes of his subjects' noses, particularly in portraits, reveals the refreshing tendency to depict reality or near-reality.
