I love this movie and have watched it several times. That said, here is the part where I admit that I can't answer a single question. That's pretty much how I went through all my college classes: enjoyed them while I was there; couldn't remember a thing about them afterward.

caution,

Don't feel bad.....I wouldn't know any of the answers either if I hadn't recently watched the movie with the purpose of making up quiz questions.

Maybe, even in school, teaching is done all wrong. Maybe making quizzes should be an assignment......its a good way to pay attention to the subject and maybe retain more.
