About the movie: It's the early days of the F.B.I. - federal agents working for the Department of Justice. Though they've got limited powers...

1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: 'G' Men (1935)?
a.		The sound made by the bug sweepers used in the film is the same as the sound made by the sonar equipment in Crimson Tide, also directed by Tony Scott. Gene Hackman, Jason Robards, and Lillo Brancato were in both films.
b.		Sir Peter Ustinov voiced Prince John also in the German dub of the movie, but not King Richard.
c.		Lloyd Nolans film debut.
d.		Selected as number 8 on AFIs 100 YEARS...100 MOVIES

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: 'G' Men (1935)?
a.		The name of Ana Pascals bakery is "The Uprising".
b.		In this film, which was made after one of the many "censorship" reforms, the gangsters are never seen using the common gangster weapon: the Thompson Sub-Machine Gun. In an effort to curb the violence in movies, the new "production codes" forbade the use of the weapon by gangsters on camera for fear that it would corrupt the youth of America (a fact explained in the Angels with Dirty Faces DVD documentary). This is especially evident during the lodge shootout. All of the cops and FBI agents have Tommy guns, 12-gauge pump shotguns and automatic pistols, while the gangsters only have revolvers and lever-action rifles.
c.		Ralph Fiennes was originally attached to this project when Oliver Stone was still slated to direct, according to an interview with Fiennes on Charlie Rose (December 28, 2000).
d.		When Truman-Lodge (Anthony Starke) says that the set up cost them $32 million dollars, that is an inside joke, a reference to the films $32 million dollar budget.

3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: 'G' Men (1935)?
a.		In 1805, Bligh was appointed governor of New South Wales. Sometime afterward, complaints of his "oppressive attitude" filtered back to London. Many of these complaints were due to Blighs attempts to combat corruption; the offenders eventually deposed Bligh.
b.		Stanley Holloway was originally cast as Admiral Boom, but because he was working on My Fair Lady, he turned it down.
c.		In the video and DVD releases, the "JVC" logo originally seen in the rooftop scene in the theatrical cut has been airbrushed out. This is because the producers believed it to be "too distracting". They also claim that this particular product placement was unintentional.
d.		Initially, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover and U.S. Attorney General Homer Cummings disapproved of the film. Their primary reason was that it portrayed an FBI agent as insubordinate (Davis being a smart ass to McCord) and acting on his own (Davis leaving the hospital to find Collins). But when the movie became a success, Hoover and Cummings realized that the film could be used to promote the image of the FBI and they changed their minds and began openly endorsing it.

4.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: 'G' Men (1935)?
a.		The lobby card for this movie has an official-looking statement: "This film is Scientifically Authentic ... It is only one step ahead of present reality!"
b.		Although it was filmed in 2-strip Technicolor, all surviving material is in black & white. Two songs by Harold Arlen and Ted Koehler, "I Love a Parade" and "Temporarily Blue," were cut before release, although "I Love A Parade" is heard over the opening and closing credits. "Im Happy When Youre Jealous" by Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby was also cut before release.
c.		All of the newsreaders and television presenters are real people portraying themselves.
d.		J. Edgar Hoover, Director of the FBI, personally approved the script for this movie. He even assigned FBI agents to monitor its production and ensure that it was accurate in every detail. When it grossed over $1,000,000 (an astronomical sum for a film in 1935), he was extremely pleased. There were two famous federal law enforcement agencies in the early part of the 20th century. They were the "G-Men" of the FBI, who worked for the Justice Department, and the "T-Men" who worked for the Treasury Department. Hoover was intensely interested in his "G-Men" winning the publicity and popularity rivalry. This movie certainly helped!

5.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: 'G' Men (1935)?
a.		The pipe that Mark smokes out of belonged to one of the crew.
b.		Brewsters political party "None of the Above" (NOTA) is used in jurisdictions or organizations giving a voter who is against all choices on a ballot a chance to indicate his disapproval with all of the candidates in any voting system. The underlying principle is that legitimate consent requires the ability to withhold consent, allowing voters to withhold their consent in an election to office, just as they can by voting no on ballot questions.
c.		Two of the prominent action scenes in the film were based on real events. The rail station shootout in which gangsters free Danny Leggett,was based upon the famous "Kansas City Massacre" in which gunmen attacked FBI agents and local police as they were transporting federal prisoner Frank "Jelly" Nash on June 17th, 1933. In that incident one FBI agent--who was unarmed, as were all agents at that time--three policemen and Nash himself were killed. As shown in the film, this was the incident that increased the power of the FBI and turned into the agency it is currently. The other incident was the shootout at the lodge. That was based on a battle between FBI agents and a gang that included John Dillinger and Baby Face Nelson on April 22, 1934.
d.		At the scene near the end when Reggie comes out of the funeral home, the production installed a wind machine with a huge fan blowing to create the effect of a very strong wind. As a joke, A. Michael Baldwin started throwing stones in front of the fan, that went to hit Reggie Bannister and Kathy Lester several times.
