    Steve:: What's your favorite movie of all time?
    Michelle: That's a good question? I don't know. Maybe "Forrrest Gump"(《阿甘正傳》).
    Steve: Why "Forrest Gump"?
    Michelle: Because I love Tom Hanks, and I thought it had a lot of clever tie-ins(聯(lián)系,關(guān)聯(lián)); it was like a photo album of the country during the last 30 years..
    Steve: That was a good show. Okay. Here's a little bit of movie trivia(小問題) for you: What movie is the top-grossing (票房收入的;毛利的)film of all time?
    Michelle: Oh, that's easy. "Jurassic Park(〈侏羅紀公園〉)". It's the only film that has grossed over a billion dollars in history.
    Steve: That's true. but when a film's gross is adjusted for inflation, the highest-grossing film is "Gone With the Wind". Okay, what director has 7 of the top 40 highest-grossing films of all time?
    Michelle: A piece of cake. Steven Spielberg. Give me something that's challenging.
    Steve: Okay. Who said "Go ahead, make my day!"?
    Michelle: Clint Eastwood.
    Steve: All right. What was Dustin Hoffman's debut movie(第一部電影)?
    Michelle: "The Graduate".

    Michelle: I don't know. 1970?
    Steve: Wrong. 1968.
    Michelle: Okay. Give me another question.
    Steve: Okay. What actress has the most nominations for an Academy Award?
    Michelle: I have no idea.
    Steve: Katharine Hepburn. She was nominated 12 times and won 3 times.
    Michelle: Okay, My turn. First of all. What's your favorite scary (恐怖的)movie?
    Steve: It's gotta be "Psycho"(《精神變態(tài)者》). I love that shower scene.
    Michelle: I hate the choppy (不連貫的)music that they play during that scene.
    Steve: That's what makes it so memorable.
    Michelle: Okay. Who directed "Tootsie"(《寶貝兒》?
    Steve: Easy. Sidney Pollack. Incidentally, he also acted in it as well.

    Michelle: You're pretty good. Try this one. What's the top-grossing animated cartoon of all time?

    Michelle: Not quite. It was "Snow and the Seven Dwarfs". Here's your last question; What year was the first in-flight movie (空中電影;在飛機上放映的電影〉?
    Steve: 1955?
    Michelle: Wrong. 1926. The movie "The Lost World" was shown on Imperial Airways from London to Paris on April 16, 1926.
    Steve: The first in-flight movie was 70 years ago? That blows me away.(這真使我感到驚訝萬分。) I guess I'm not such a great movie buff after all.
    Michelle: That's okay. I still love you.
