Trivia
I was a little bored and thought a film trivia round could be fun, whoever gets the answer correct asks the next question.

1) What actor received 2 academy award nominations in 3 years, one for playing a WWII concentration camp survivor, the second playing a Nazi war criminal?

Ralph Fiennes?

I don't know if I'm right, but if I am, someone else can just ask another question.

Here's a hint, the Nazi he played was very good with a drill.

This is I don't, but I really look forward to the answer. I'll take a guess, "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex But Were Afraid to Ask"

This is probably extremely easy, but it's all I can think of.

What movie features the first ever shot of a flushing toilet?

I actually came upon a movie that has a longer title than "Don't Be A Menace...." on IMDb...it's...

"The Saga of the Viking Women and Their Voyage to the Waters of the Great Sea Serpent" 1957

Click here if you don't believe me!

I believe that would be Hitchcock's masterpiece "Psycho"

What was the first film to be released in widescreen format? (e.g. non 1.33:1 OAR)
