13. "Well, it's just from headbanging and lifting weights
when I was younger, My dad had a business where he did
painting, roofing and everything, so I'd work with him all
day long.. Then I'd jog over to my friend's house, and
we'd lift weights. If you compare old pictures from when
I was in VILE to now, it's obviously grown and the only
thing I've really done since is headbanging, which must
be fairly similar to weightlifting.
I had it measured maybe when I got married in '98, but I
don't remember and it's bigger now. If you really look at
it, it's bigger than the base of my head or where my ears
are.

38. Their model of making movies was called Tiffin Box productions;
one which they successfully applied in over 35 films which
epitomized the lower depths of 1980s Bollywood.
Their model involved keeping production costs to a minimum by
dividing all the necessary tasks of filmmaking within their family.
For example wives and the mother-in-law were responsible for
the cooking and make up. They didnt spend on sets because
they shot on location. They didnt spend on costumes because
these were picked out of actors wardrobes. The cameras were
all borrowed.

state of Mississippi and surrounding areas. It destroyed many

71. As 1978 film B was a critical as well as commercial success. It won the
Oscar for best picture. Another director DJ Z said-"The X sequence is
just out and out one of the best pieces of film ever made, ever shot,
ever edited, ever performed. [...] Anybody can go off about A all they
want but when you get to that sequence you just have to shut up."
X is the name of a football trick move popularized by the legendary
footballer C and can also be connected with the Iron Maiden album Y.
He was then given a free hand for his next movie M which he took as a
cue to go batshit crazy. A took the studios money and ran with it,
funneling cash into his compulsive attention to detail and more than 1.5
million feet of film. A and P, the production company (which was
founded in 1919 by D. W. Griffith, Charlie Chaplin, Mary Pickford,
and Douglas Fairbanks)famously and publicly clashed over the
production of the film, and the director reportedly kept armed
guards outside the editing room to keep execs from fussing with his
vision.
The film went on to become one of the biggest disasters of all time and
ended up bankrupting the production company P.

73. I must admit that the image(created in a film) damaged my career.
Filmmakers would come to me only with those kinds of roles. The
character would be a simple girl, but she was required to do all kinds of
things. They wanted some sex in any movie that I featured. I said, no
thanks. Ek simple si middle class ladki bath tub mein kahaan se pahunch
gayi!
I did the film because I liked the story of the rehabilitation of a
prostitute. I had problem with just one bedroom scene where my
character was supposed to be nude. It was impossible for me to actually
do a nude scene. I kept asking the director about it until he must've
thought I'm interested in doing it. My hairdresser Maria bailed me out.
She styled my hair with a wig in such a way that it covered my upper
torso completely. As for the controversial shot of my legs in an inverted V,
I had to do nothing, just hitch up my skirt a bit. But the effect was very
bold. I'd say the bold scenes were more in the mind than body.
Who talking about which film?

another "tribe." He threatens to "set the flag on fire.

80. X was set out to be a film by Y and another collaborator Z. Y said it
is a surreal "ghost story," and "the idea's ultimately that this
album will form a kind of companion with the feature film." He
stated that David Lynch and Stanley Kubrick were major
influences for the film-script. The first 15 pages of the script made
it to the MySpace accounts of Y and Z but nothing came of it. So,
Y released Xs OST as an album with his band which became the
bands highest selling record at that given date.
Although, Y and Z initially set out to make it as a film first it still
awaits the required funding to be greenlit. The picture in the next
slide is taken from a series of concept artwork done for the album
cover by A.

87. The documentary film featuring A shows him teaching how to play this
song B (from As band) to his fellow participants. This footage ended up
as a deleted scene and it shows that after A had done his teaching bit, he
said to his students in his trademark deadpan style, That'll be 5
dollars.
The song is one of the most recognizable songs. Its emergence as a
popular sporting anthem started when, on October 22 2003, supporters
of Club Brugge K.V. overheard the song being played in a bar in C, while
preparing to attend a UEFA Champions League group match against
C1 and began to sing along. After a 0-1 upset win, the fans brought the
song back with them to Belgium, where Brugge began playing it at their
home games during matches. After Brugge hosted A.S. Roma in a UEFA
Cup match on February 15, 2006, the Italian side brought the song back
home with them and it began to be played inside the stadium. By the
time the World Cup had begun in June, the song had become the
national team's unofficial anthem.
