ANSWER OF THE WEEK
Last week, we were talking about Jessica Chastain, who is the star of the new crime drama “Molly’s Game,” now playing. The captivating, red-haired actress got her training at Juilliard School, where comedian Robin Williams was so impressed with her talent he picked up her tab for tuition. We wanted to know which of the following is NOT a movie featuring Chastain: “The Tree of Life” (2011), “The Help” (2011), “Lawless” (2012), “Cloud Atlas” (2012), “Zero Dark Thirty” (2012), “Mama” (2013), “The Martian” (2015) or “The Zookeeper’s Wife” (2017)? Chastain was not a part of “Cloud Atlas.”
QUESTION OF THE WEEK
We are still mourning the loss of multifaceted rock star David Bowie, who died two years ago this month. Mr. Ziggy Stardust was probably called back to his home planet in another galaxy. One of Bowie’s biggest hits — the one that really put him on the map early on during his career — was “Space Oddity” (1969). It featured the fictional character of Major Tom. The space-cruising Major Tom also showed up in two more Bowie tunes. Can you name them?
