4. Question 2
X was an immigrant who rose from working
as a dishwasher and became one of most
influential gangsters in 80s America. He has a
firm belief in the inability of the eyes to lie,
has a distinctive way of eating lemons from
the hand bowl, and wants other people to
greet his diminutive friends. X also served as
the inspiration for the main character from a
much beloved 2000s game, Y, which also
incorporated much of the game’s style and
design into its gameplay. Give me X (1 point)
and Y for bonus (1 point).

5. Question 3
Give me X and Y (2 points) + Z (bonus 1 point). X went on to inspire two overly
dramatic Indian remakes. This theme was previously explored in another film Z,
whose director has since found an audience on Netflix who watch his movies for, ….
research purposes. The plot of the movie was written by X’s brother and screenwriting
collaborator in the form of a short story. The movie is known for its unique narrative
that reflects the fragmented mind of its protagonist. X is a 2000 psychological neo-
noir film that served as the debut (major studio) of Y, who has since went on to
become one of the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful filmmakers
of all time.

6. Question 4
X was a great actor and two times Oscar winner, who caused a lot of controversy when he won
it the second time. The first reason was that he won best actor for only 16 minutes of
screentime, over another future great stalwart Y, who in turn was nominated for supporting
actor instead, despite having the most screen time. The second and main reason was that he
refused to accept the Oscar, sending someone else to pick it up for him. Give me X and Y (1 + 1
points).

that. (2 points)
