This week, Hallie has written a quiz all about works (mostly books) that were adapted into other works (mostly movies)! It is a very hard quiz. Justin gets big mad. We also talk about children’s literature, soccer, and some recent history!

2:37: Q1 (Times & Places): How One Man Saved the British Monarchy is the subtitle of a 2010 non-fiction book about George VI that was adapted into what 2010 film directed by Tom Hooper?

13:01: Q2 (Arts & Literature): What 1963 book, written and illustrated by Maurice Sendak, was adapted into a 2009 film with some of the large creatures voiced by James Gandolfini, Catherine O’Hara, and Forest Whitaker?

18:45: Q3 (Everything Else): The Accidental Billionaires, the book that was the basis for the film The Social Network, was written by Ben Mezrich in consultation with what Facebook co-founder who broke contact with Mezrich after settling his lawsuit with Mark Zuckerberg?

30:10: Q4 (Movies & TV): The Godfather was adapted from a 1969 novel of the same name by what author who also co-wrote the screenplay with Francis Ford Coppola?

36:34: Q5 (Sports & Games): The 2005 film Fever Pitch completely changed the subject of the 1992 essay it was based on.  While the film is about the main character’s obsession with the Boston Red Sox, the essay was about the author’s obsession with which Premier League team based in Holloway, North London?

42:41: Q6 (Music): Victor Hugo’s novel, Les Miserables, was adapted as a stage musical.  Name either the composer or lyricist who also co-wrote the book for the musical.
