Tonight's rounds were:
​

​Love Actually Is All Around​
​​​​​​​​In the 2003 Christmas rom-com “Love Actually” (written and directed by Richard Curtis), Hugh Grant says in a voiceover, “If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around.” So let's put that to the test - these are all questions stemming around love...
  1. What US city is also known as the “City of Brotherly Love”?
  2. The airport known as "Love Field" services which US city?
  3. In Greek mythology, who was the King of Cyprus that fell in love with a statue he had carved?

  5. Elizabeth Bennet, George Wickham, Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy form one of the love triangles in which Jane Austen novel?
  6. Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain and Hole frontwoman Courtney Love named their only daughter what?
  7. “Who loves ya, baby?” was the catchphrase of which 1970s TV sleuth?
  8. What earlier Richard Curtis film also starring Hugh Grant (and Andie McDowell) features the Wet Wet Wet cover of “Love Is All Around”?

  11. (BONUS) About how many does the car seat?
Baby It’s Cold Outside (Video Round)
When it’s cold outside, people like to huddle by the fireplace. So I’ve edited together 12 film clips that occur in or around fireplaces.
​Identify the film that features each fireplace scene.
’Twas the Night Before Christmas (Who Am I?)
Reveal more and more specific clues for descending point values. You can only guess once, so only hand in your answer sheet when your sure. If you are correct, you will get the current point value for the question you submit your answer during.
  1. (20 pts) I founded fashion company “Mrs. Mudd” and designed menswear collections called “Uncle Kimono” (2003) and “Technobohemian” (2010). 
  2. (16 pts) In 2016, I wrote and starred in a movie called 100 Years: The Movie You Will Never See which is now locked in a vault in the south of France, not to be seen before 2115. 
  3. (14 pts) In 2015, I appeared in the music video for Eminem’s single “Phenomenal”.
  4. (12 pts) I was born December 9, 1953, so today is my birthday. I am known for my distinctive voice and delivery, which The Guardian has described as “wafting, whispery, and reedy”. I used that voice to read the name of this round to children on SNL.
  5. (10 pts) I’ve been nominated twice for a Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for: Places in the Heart (1984) and In the Line of Fire (1993). 
  6. (8 pts) In a 1998 film, I portrayed the Musketeer Athos. Then, in 1999, I portrayed myself because my name made up 2/3 of the film’s title.
