1.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Delta Force 2: The Colombian Connection (1990)?
a.
The meaning of the films title according to different sources. The Governor character in the Ian Fleming short story of the same name defines it as "... a precise figure defining the comfort, humanity and fellow feeling required between two people for love to survive. If the quantum of solace is 0, then love is dead." He then introduces the Law of the Quantum of Solace as follows: "Ive seen flagrant infidelities patched up, Ive seen crimes and even murder foreign by the other party, let alone bankruptcy and other forms of social crime. Incurable disease, blindness, disaster - all of these can be overcome. But never the death of common humanity in one of the partners. Ive thought about this and Ive invented a rather high-sounding title for this basic factor in human relations. I have called it the law of the Quantum of Solace." In the same story James Bond comments on the Law of the Quantum of Solace as follows: "Thats a splendid name for it. Its certainly impressive enough. And of course I see what you mean. I should say youre absolutely right. Quantum of Solace - the amount of comfort. Yes, I suppose you can say that all love and friendship is based in the end on that. Human beings are very insecure. When the other person not only makes you feel insecure but actually seems to want to destroy you, its obviously the end. The Quantum of Solace stands at zero. Youve got to get away to save yourself." In an interview, the producers explained: "It means that a relationship cannot be salvaged unless there is a quantum of solace between the two parties - Quantum meaning measure and solace meaning comfort - so if they are not willing to share that then their relationship is not redeemable. In our case, it is a couple of things: Bond is looking for a quantum of solace after his experiences in
