Round 1: Tossup 8

In a short film by this director, a masked man climbs out of a crevasse after a mob shakes him off a tree. A surfer watches horses emerge from waves, as a metaphor for beer head, in an ad this filmmaker directed for Guinness. A close-up by this director lingers on the lips of a woman in a pink top as she chews and spits out a piece of cake. Adam Pearson, who has neurofibromatosis, debuted in a film by this director in which a man submerged in an abyss sees a body gorily “deflate.” This director had sofas and a set of three walls in a warehouse-like room mounted on wheels for a (*) music video in which a man wearing a fur hat dances as the floor appears to move. This director of the music videos for “Karma Police” (-5[1])by Radiohead and “Virtual Insanity” by Jamiroquai (10[1])used hidden cameras to film a montage near Celtic Park in Glasgow, where real-life men turned down offers to ride in a white van with Scarlett Johansson. For 10 points, name this English director of Under the Skin. ■END■
