Imagine being a gun for hire in the old west. It sounds exciting, until someone actually takes a shot at you. Take a shot at this one. It won't fire back if you miss it (we might). Where and when did this story begin?
2. We don't know where the nickname "Little Bill" came from, but we're guessing it had nothing to do with the size of the Sheriff's (Gene Hackman) pistol.
With that said, if there was a
lesson to be learned from what happened to Delilah (Anna Thomson) in the film's opening sequence, it would have to be this.
3. Everyone in the old west didn't have a nickname, it just seemed that way. We've already mentioned one of those names. There were nineteen others. If you can name six, we'll add two points to your score.
4. Five words are missing from
the following exchange of dialogue. Tell us what those words are and where they belong.
Faith (Liisa Repo-Martell): "If
Delilah doesn't care, what are
we getting so riled up about?"
Strawberry Alice (Frances Fisher):
"Just because we let them smelly
fools ride us like horses, don't
mean we gotta let them brand
us like horses."
5. You can't put a price on someone's life, can you? The Sheriff did. How did he compensate Skinny (Anthony James) for the loss of one of his prostitutes?
6. This next question pertains to
the saloon that Skinny owned. It doubled as this, which became a front for the brothel. What are we referring to?
7. What was William Munny (Clint Eastwood) doing when his character was introduced?
8. True or False: Munny was described as a man with a notoriously vicious intemperate disposition.
9. Suppose you where traveling through the state of Montana, on your way to Munny's farm. Would your journey take you north, south, east or west?
10. Munny claimed that his deceased wife cured him of his love of whiskey and his "wickedness." Did either of those ills resurface after she passed away?
11. Which (if any) of the following statements are incorrect?
A. Munny's wife died in 1878
from an unspecified illness.
B. Munny never said how long
he'd be gone, or when he'd return.
C. His children were left to
fend for themselves with only
the spirit of their deceased
mother to watch over them.
D. Was the Schofield Kid
(Jaimz Woolvett) another ghost
from Munny's past? The answer
is, "No, he wasn't, but there was
some concern because of the
questions that were asked."
12. We've never lied to you before, have we? Maybe just to confuse you. How did the Schofield Kid's version of what happened to Delilah differ from the truth?
13. We wouldn't go so far as to say that Will Jr. (Shane Meier) was smarter than his dad, but he knew he wouldn't get very far on the horse he saddled. Did it have something to do with the animal's stubbornness?
14. Will Jr. didn't gun down any outlaws while his dad was away, but he did kill to survive. Did
Munny give his son the okay to butcher one of the hogs, some chickens or a stray deer to feed himself and his younger sister (Aline Levasseur)?
15. Who was Munny referring to when he remarked, "I think about him, now and again. He didn't do anything to deserve to get shot. Least nothing I can remember when I sobered up"?
16. Munny was given the evil eye when he left Ned's (Morgan Freeman) farm. Do you remember why?
17. Let's fast-forward to the discussion that turned into a heated argument between English Bob (Richard Harris) and German Joe Schultz (Henry Kope). It was prompted by a newspaper story that covered the assassination
of a U.S. President. It wasn't Lincoln, so who does that leave?
18. Would America be better off with a King or a Queen as
opposed to a president? Our answer would be no because a president can be voted out of office after four years. English Bob thought otherwise. Tell us why.
19. One doesn't normally
associate the word "infernal" with "high places," but English Bob managed to link the two together. The question is how.
20. We'll give you this next
question straight up, like a shot of whiskey. How did English Bob win seven dollars from Joe?
21. Planning a trip to the old west, circa 1880? Look up W.W. Beauchamp (Saul Rubinek) or English Bob. Why did one follow the other to America?
22. Say it with us, "Lights,
Camera, Trivia!" That wasn't so difficult, was it? What was the title of the book that Little Bill kept mispronouncing?
23. File this next question under
the category of: Don't believe everything you hear. This person's appearance certainly came as a surprise to English Bob because he thought the person was dead. Who are we referring to, and how did that individual supposedly
meet his maker?
24. You know what we never
leave home without? Three copies of our business card. Why did Clyde Ledbetter (Ron White) always carry three pistols?
25. There were a couple of
reasons why the Schofield Kid didn't want Ned's help. The
money obviously had something
to do with it. He didn't want to split the bounty three ways. What was his other reason?
26. You don't have to be an optometrist to figure this next question out, but it wouldn't hurt. How did Ned discover that the Schofield Kid was shortsighted?
27. Corky Corcoran, now there's a name you don't hear every day.
You remember what happened to that character, don't you? Let's say he survived the gunshot wound that killed him only to pass away a few days later from one of the other injuries he sustained that night. What injuries are we referring to?
28. How did Corky get the name "Two-gun"?
29. No mention was made of where Corky was buried so we
can have some fun with this one. Let's say it was in the exact spot where he died. If that were the case, his final resting place would have been here.
30. What's more important than being a good shot and having a quick draw? Think about it. A few different characters could have remarked, "That's why I'm still alive."
31. How many times do you hear about someone being shot over a case of mistaken identity? It still happens, but not nearly as much as it used to. Munny didn't have much to go on, but he was able
to ID the men that cut up Delilah. The question is this; how much information did he have?
32. Where do old gunslingers go
to die? We'd like a name or two if you can answer that question. Munny must have had a few doubts about whether or not he'd ever see his children again. If he didn't, he wouldn't have asked Ned to…
A. Watch over his children.
B. Bury him next to his
deceased wife.
C. Kill whomever killed him,
and then make up a story about
how he died.
D. He asked Ned not to do
something... not to tell his
children the truth about their
father because he didn't want
them to know about the man
he used to be.
33. What name did Munny use when he was asked to identify himself?
34. Ned parted ways with Munny after Davey Bunting (Rob Campbell) was killed. Do you remember why?
35. Who was talking to whom
when the following words were spoken?
"Them whores are going to
tell different lies than you. And
when their lies ain't the same
as your lies, well, I ain't gonna
hurt no woman. But I'm gonna
hurt you, and not gentle like
before."
36. What would Munny have been referring to if he joked, "Confessions are all well and good, Kid, but this isn't the time or the place for it. Let me guess, you're a virgin too?"
37. Alice would have paid the Schofield Kid his share of the bounty after Quick Mike was gunned down if she had the
$1000 that was offered, minus a fee, but the girls only had part of
the money. What did the fee cover?
38. Why did the Sheriff stop
looking for Munny?
39. Fill in the blank: When Munny returned to Big Whiskey, he found the body of his friend in an open coffin and a sign that read, "This
is what happens __________ ."
40. Think back to when you were about 9 or 10 years old. You knew you were in a world of trouble whenever one of your parents addressed you by your full name, right? The reason why we ask is because the Sheriff's last words were "William Munny!" Now, we don't know if that triggered a flashback from Munny's own childhood, but we do remember what was said prior to that. Do you?
41. Why didn't anyone shoot
Munny in the back when he rode out of town in the film's closing sequence?
lesson to be learned from what happened to Delilah (Anna Thomson) in the film's opening sequence, it would have to be this.
3. Everyone in the old west didn't have a nickname, it just seemed that way. We've already mentioned one of those names. There were nineteen others. If you can name six, we'll add two points to your score.

5. He was repaid with seven ponies (five from Mike, and two from Davey).
6. The place was called Greely's Beer Garden and Billiard Parlor, but it didn't have a billiards table. It did

a pheasant with the winner taking the loser's share

21. He wanted to chronicle English Bob's wild west adventures for the book he was writing.
22. The Duke of Death (Bill thought the word "Duke" was pronounced "Duck")
