The multiple choice question in the quiz is: “Marc regarde le film. Il est très bon” means.... I answered - Marc is watching the film. It is very good. I was marked NEARLY correct because I didn’t include the answer: Marc is watching the film. HE is very good. That doesn’t feel like a correct answer to me.

So just for clarification, "Quel garçon à jeté cette balle?" and "Qui à jeté cette balle?" both are valid correct? It's just that "quel" requires the noun, and qui doesn't.
