These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2011-07-18,
and should be interpreted accordingly. All questions were written
by members of the Misplaced Modifiers, but have been reformatted
and may have been retyped and/or edited by me. I will reveal the
correct answers in about 3 days.

For further information, including an explanation of the """ notation
that may appear in these rounds, see my 2021-07-20 companion posting
on "Reposted Questions from the Canadian Inquisition (RQFTCI*)".

** Game 10, Round 10 - Challenge

* A. Literature: Bond... Not Fleming

Ian Fleming died in 1964, but James Bond went on to new adventures,
penned by a variety of authors.

A1. He wrote "The James Bond Dossier", the first critical study
of Fleming's series. Three years later, in 1968, he
published the first non-Fleming Bond novel, "Colonel Sun".
His pen name for this book was Robert Markham. Who was
he really? We need both his first and his last name,
but his title is not necessary.

A2. American Jeffery Deaver, author of many crime novels
and creator of criminalist Lincoln Rhyme, wrote the """most
recent""" Bond novel. What's the title?

* B. Venice

B1. This city was administratively unified with Venice about
100 years ago, but previously, when Venice proper was
entirely on islands, this was the nearest mainland city
to it. Name the place.

B2. The oldest """surviving""" bridge across the Grand Canal
dates from 1591. What's its name?

* C. David Cronenberg in the 21st Century

This Canadian director no longer """writes""" all his own scripts,
but he's """not done""" scaring us yet.

C1. Ralph Fiennes plays a recovering/relapsing mental patient.
Patrick McGrath wrote the screenplay based on his own novel.
The cast also includes Gabriel Byrne and Lynn Redgrave.
Name the Cronenberg movie from 2002.

C2. The Russian mob in London. Viggo Mortensen plays Nikolai,
just the driver... or is he? Naomi Watts co-stars. Steven
Knight wrote the screenplay. Name the 2007 Cronenberg movie.

* D. Public Sculpture

D1. In 1926, sculptor Emmanuel Hahn created the statue of Ned
Hanlan that """now""" stands at Hanlan's Point on the
Toronto Islands. But you don't have to go that far to
see Hahn's work. Two objects you """have""" in your hands
almost every day were designed by Hahn in 1937. Name either.

D2. The "Little Mermaid" in Copenhagen harbor inspired sculptor
Elek Imredy to create "Girl in a Wetsuit". She """can be
seen""" perched on a rock in what Canadian city?

* E. Fashion Pioneers

E1. The father of haute couture was an Englishman (born 1825,
died 1895) who moved to Paris in 1846. He made dresses
for the Empress Eugénie, Sarah Bernhardt, and Nellie Melba
among others, and is believed to be the first designer to
put labels in his clothes. Name him.

E2. Born in Algeria in 1936, he became head of the House of
Dior at age 21. He started his own house in 1961. Among his
innovations were a line of prêt-à-porter (as well as haute
couture) and the use of ethnically diverse models in his
fashion shows. Who are we talking about?

* F. Music: Requiems

F1. Known for his operas, this agnostic set the Latin requiem
mass to music in honor of Italian novelist Alessandro
Manzoni, who died in 1873. Name the composer.

F2. The "German Requiem" (1868) was a setting of Bible texts
in the composer's own language rather than a setting of
the Latin mass. It is thought to have been written for
his mother. Name the bereaved son.

Dime, quarter. (All still true, except maybe the "almost every day"
part, since the pandemic has led to increased use of credit cards.)

This refers to the coins' usual designs, with the Bluenose and
the caribou, not the ridiculous number of commemorative alternates
that may show up in your hands these days. In the original game
you had be specific about that, but I'm not requiring it here.
And any mention of a coin scores as "almost correct".
