1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Ace Eli and Rodger of the Skies (1973)?
a.		This movie featured the first appearance of the Emperor whom appeared as a hologram to Darth Vader. The Emperor was actually portrayed by an elderly female stand-in with a hood and heavy makeup. The yellow, Dark-Force eyes were in fact chimpanzee eyes superimposed over the stand-ins eyes to give the Emperor a less-human, more unworldly look. The Emperors voice was provided by Clive Revill who provided the voice only and not the appearance.
b.		Fred Astaire had been set for the lead for this film since the mid-1940s by producer Arthur Freed. The film was originated as a project for Astaire and Judy Garland. But since the two stars had overlapping film schedules, the project never materialized until the early 1950s with Astaire and Vera-Ellen.
c.		Steven Spielberg created the original story for this film, intending it to be his feature directorial debut. When 20th Century Fox executives assigned the film to another director, Spielberg was so incensed, he swore he would never make a film for Fox. He never has.
