4.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: A Mighty Heart (2007)?
a.
After
Angelina Jolie
was cast as Mariane Pearl, she and the filmmakers came in for a great deal of criticism, since Pearls and Jolies racial backgrounds are not similar, and Jolie played the role wearing makeup that somewhat darkened her own skin tone. The casting reminded many critics of the time in Hollywood when it was customary to cast "ethnic" roles with white actors in makeup rather than using black, Asian, or Native American actors. During a promotional press event for the movie, Jolie responded to the criticisms by saying, "the idea is, if you ask Marianne, because she did address that... if you did actually want to find somebody that was her exact makeup, shes actually majority Dutch, and shes as black as she is Chinese, and shes Cuban, and shes French. So, it could have gone to many different racial backgrounds, probably, if you went technical on it." Pearl herself approved of casting Jolie; in Time Magazine, Pearl said, "I have heard some criticism about her casting, but it is not about the color of your skin. It is about who you are. I asked her to play the role - even though she is way more beautiful than I am - because I felt a real kinship to her."
b.
"Lux Radio Theater" broadcast a 60 minute radio adaptation of the movie on April 1, 1946 with
Wallace Beery
and
Marjorie Main
reprising their film roles.
c.
Naoh Hathaway was due to appear in the Broadway show "Chaplin" alongside
Gene Kelly
and
Ann Margaret
, but opted to do "The Neverending Story" instead. He had been cast in the film, then the original director was fired, and when Wolfgang Petersen was hired, Noah was immediately re-hired.
d.
The individual incidents in the film are mostly true, but were rearranged as to both the timing and the people involved. (A note at the start of the film acknowledges this.) For instance, of the 76 who escaped, there were indeed 3 who got away and 50 who were murdered in reprisal, but the murders occurred in small groups, not all at once. (14 Germans were executed after the war for their parts in them.)
