1. The most popular programs on TV tend to be game shows, soap operas and crime dramas.
2. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was the first full-length animated film: it was produced by Walt Disney.
3. Horror films like A Nightmare on Elm Street depend on spectacular visual effects rather than a subtle storyline.
4. Superman 2, directed by Richard Lester, was the sequel to Superman. The original screenplay was co-written by
Mario Puzo, who wrote The Godfather.
5. A really exciting movie depends on good cinematography (photography), good editing (the way the film is cut
with perfect timing so that each scene surprises you), and exciting action sequences (car chases, fights and falls).
6. Modern films have a Dolby stereo sound system but not all cinemas have the equipment to take advantage of this.
7. Foreign-language films can be shown with sub-titles or may be dubbed.
8. Michael Keaton played the role of Batman in the movie but his co-star, Jack Nicholson, stole every scene he
appeared in.
9. The Last Emperor was an Italian-American production, shot on location in China. It received a lot of acclaim, but
I thought it was highly overrated.
10. It was hard to follow the plot because there were so many flashbacks to scenes that had happened earlier.
11. The names of the stars and the director are given in the opening credits, but you have to wait till the end to see the
complete list of characters and the actors who played them - and the name of every individual member of the film
team. The people who aren't mentioned are all the extras who appear in the crowd scenes.
12. I never go to see horror films - my favourites are dramas.
13. In the new production of The Tempest by the Royal Shakespeare Company, the sets were designed by David
Hockney.
14. In a pop or rock band you may hear these instruments: guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, and vocals.
15. The following instruments play in a symphony orchestra: strings (violin, viola, cello, double bass), woodwinds
(flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon), brass (trumpet, French horn, trombone, tuba), percussion (timpani, snare drum,
cymbals), and sometimes harp.
