PLAYING WITH THE ALPHABET III
Continuing with the alphabet then...
Since F got hurt and was admitted in GH , " I " ll start the question with " J " :D
------
J was an usher at K's funeral and was heavily involved in politics, until he and several other students held the Board of Directors of his college (which included K's father) hostage and was suspended. While he was suspended, he became more and more involved with a particular movement until his mother sent him to Los Angeles because the FBI told her that he would die within a year if he remained with the movement. Today, we know J for very different reasons.
L was an event. After L, K's house was bombed. However, L proved a watershed in American history and made M a household name across the globe, since she was the reason L happened.
K was later assassinated by N, who was captured in London, two months after he killed K. N was obsessed with the country P (which has since gained independence and changed its name), because the nature of its regime appealed to his ideals and this was his intended destination when he went on the run after killing K. During N's trial, his lawyer convinced him to take a polygraph test but this backfired, since it revealed that he had actually killed K.
I, of course, want J, K, L, M, N and P :)

PLAYING WITH THE ALPHABET - II
An apology for the length of the question, but I found some of the stuff really interesting. I do promise you that this is the longest question of the VENUIZ.
------
X is a movie, whose central idea has been borrowed from the book shown below. The book (written by Y) shares its name with the movie.
X's screenplay was written by a man who wrote under many names. Though he had read the original novel, the director (Z) told him to forget it completely while writing the screenplay. Along with X, there were three other movies directed by Z which were based on books by Y.
A (who was Russian-American) played a Freudian analyst in B, a movie directed by Z. B was one of 3 films to be made as a partnership between producer W and director Z. There was friction between the two during the making of B and one of the main causes of this friction was Salvador Dali, who was hired to conceive scenes of mental delusion. A picture of the producer W:
A is widely regarded to be one of the greatest actors of the 20th century, although he was mainly a stage actor. A's uncle, C, is known around the world as one of the greatest short story writers of all time.
C lends his name to a literary device D, which is the stark opposite of another literary device E. E can be represented as follows:
Do the needful and give me X, Y, Z, W, A, B, C, D and E!

PLAYING WITH THE ALPHABET - I
X is a famous architect, who is known for designing Y. However, when Y was being constructed, he had a major falling-out with a minister for escalating costs and he was removed from the job. He was not invited to its opening and his name wasn't mentioned at the ceremony either.
Y is often lit up in special colors to promote a cause, celebrate an event or showcase a work of art. The person in charge of this coloring has said "We're not colouring in Y, we're actually kind of taking the art of Y and raising it to a different level".
An architectural plan of Y:
X attended Z's school in Arizona. Z is also a well-known architect. One of his most famous conceptions (A) is shown below. This simple-looking building (from the outside) is regarded as one of the greatest feats of 20th century architecture and it took Z worked for more than 15 years on its design.

Mr. OR Mrs. ???
X (picture below) is best known as one half of a reclusive duo. X supposedly began making small public appearances dressed as a woman. Further reports said that he took female hormones and was in the process of getting a sex change. A penchant for cross-dressing further fuelled these rumours, but no one knows whether he went ahead with the sex change or not. Who?
