London in the Time of the Stuarts - 1903- Illustrated Edition

Walter Besant

Sinossi

Therefore the historian of London has before him the broad fact that for sixty years, viz. from the accession of Charles I. to the expulsion of James II., he should be pursuing the history of the country. In this place, however, there is not space for such a history; it has already been well told by many historians; and I have neither the time nor the competence to write the history of this most eventful period. I have therefore found it necessary to assume a certain knowledge of events and to speak of their sequence with reference especially to the attitude of the City; the forces which acted on the people; their ideas; their resolution and tenacity under Charles I.; their servility and obedience under Charles II.; and their final rejection of the doctrines of passive resistance, Divine right, and obedience which made the departure of James possible, and opened the door for constitutional government and the liberties of the people.

Film Trivia Metaverse

THE USUAL SUSPECTS 
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
  
FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY BRYAN SINGER 
  
CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
  
ABOUT THE FILM 
The Usual Suspects is a 1995 neo-noir thriller directed by Bryan Singer. The film follows the interrogation of Roger "Verbal" Kint, a small-time con artist, after a violent heist on a docked ship leaves multiple criminals dead. Kint narrates the story of how he and his crew were manipulated by a mysterious and legendary crime lord, Keyser Söze. As the investigation unfolds, the narrative is built through flashbacks, unreliable narration, and intricate plot twists. The movie explores themes of deception, criminal manipulation, and the blurred lines between truth and lies, keeping viewers on edge until the final moments. 
  
TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
  
“Christopher McQuarrie had previously worked for a detective agency, and this influenced the depiction of criminals and law enforcement officials in the script.” 
  
“Benicio Del Toro's bizarre dialect in the film was reportedly so unintelligible that during one scene, Stephen Baldwin actually forgot his cue due to being unable to understand what Del Toro had said.” 
  
“The part of Verbal Kint was always intended for actor Kevin Spacey.” 
  
“The idea for this movie started only with the concept of a movie poster of five men in a lineup.” 
  
“All the actors were encouraged to ad lib perplexed reactions to Benicio Del Toro's oddball vocal stylings.”
