4. "Yeah, actually that was the case, X used a knife and he stabbed Y.
When he recovered out of that we pushed him out to bat.
"These are all stories . Marvel and Warner bros should pick them up
and make a movie out of it. I don't know where it comes from. If
someone from the team has actually told you this, it will be
interesting if you give us the name of the individual who said this.
This is what has happened because his imagination is really
brilliant, and he should be working for Warner Bros or another
movie company. Stuff like that makes good stories for the tabloid,
and maybe it helps them sell it. As far as reality is concerned, there
is nothing like that."

13. X was a 2015 movie directed by Y, received high praises from his
critics by pulling off a certain feat. He(Y) worked with
cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki, who last year brought a
similar vision to Gravity. Alfred Hitchcock attempted something
similar with Rope, a suspense thriller that took place in real-time.
Master filmmaker Alexander Sokurov also did something similar-but
with a more difficult environment, with his film Russian Ark.
Entertainment Weekly describes what one mistake would cost them
on set: "Anything - a misremembered line, an extra step taken, a
camera operator stumbling on a stair or veering off course or out of
focus-could blow a take, rendering the first several minutes
unusable even if they had been perfect.“

the same national team. X currently plays in the Barclays
Premier League.
In 2003 X became the youngest player to debut for his
country thus breaking the record which was previously
held by Y, probably the most famous player for his
country. Due to X's diminutive figure and stocky build, he
is often compared with players like Romario and Y. The
lady (image in the next slide) is also another connection
between the two players X and Y.

27. X is an avid Manchester United supporter, who ditched his colours
and donned a brand spanking new Arsenal jersey after losing a
confident bet with Mexican television presenter Patty Lopez de la
Cerda.
X, a holding midfielder by trade, once publicly said he was good
enough to play for his beloved Manchester United and tried to
convince then manager Sir Alex Ferguson to give him a trial at Old
Trafford… something that sadly never materialised.
After Manchester United were thrashed by Arsenal 3-0 this year, it
was sure that X had lost the bet.

director Alfred Hitchcock, is widely considered the
master of suspense. Psycho is considered by many

What did Hitchcock do ?

34. X(image in next slide), regarded as one of the
fastest woman of all time, stunned everyone with
her breathtaking performances especially during
the 1988 Seoul Olympics. However, despite her
excellent trials, the coaches weren’t initially ready
to induct her into the national sprint-relay team,
for an unusual reason, which they later realised,
wasn’t one strong enough to keep her off. Why
exactly was this rather fashionable athlete initially
kept out of the team ?

37. Florence Joyner/Flo-Jo
She was rather famous for her fashion
adventures, especially her long nails(which
were about 4 inches long almost all the time,
if not longer!). Coaches thought that this
would be a problem in a sport like Relay,
where dropping the Baton during Baton
change would mean disqualification.

38. X is one of those rare filmmakers who is unabashedly vocal of his
inspirations and had once famously remarked ' I steal from every
movie made'. So it was not surprising when a few years ago, a
certain animated flashback in one of his most famous films was
apparently inspired from an Indian film. And when Anurag Kashyap
met X at Venice, the latter had reportedly remarked 'Yes, I saw this
Indian serial-killer film which showed violence as animated.‘(Video
in the next slide). He then used the concept of violence being
animated in one of his very famous films(English)

42. X - “We picked IT up from the Jensens (Luke and Murphy Jensen)
actually. They played with so much energy, we idolised those guys.
Then we came on tour and the older guys hated IT, these two
rookies doing IT, not showing them respect”.
Y – “I played with Venus in the mixed at Wimbledon one year and
one time after we won a point she did come flying in to do IT. I was
quite scared, actually”
X (while partnering Katarina Srebotnik) lost 7-5, 6-4 to Y (and
Samantha Stosur) in the 2008 Wimbledon Mixed Doubles finals.
