Previous IQs: Are you an actress who’s a new mom and two of whose key roles early in her career were both characters named Elizabeth? - Correct, Keira Knightley (le sigh), who played Elizabeth Swann in the _Pirates of the Caribbean_ movies and Elizabeth Bennet in _Pride & Prejudice_. Were you the bad guy (perhaps unfairly) in _Breaker Morant_? - Lord Kitchener. Are you the good guy in Jane Austen’s _Emma_? - Yes, George Knightley. DQ: Real? IQs: Did Joe Biden quote you without attribution? Were you a very, very dumb boxer in a Monty Python sketch? Did you love the smell of napalm in the morning? ---
