1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Adventure (1945)?
a.		Mel Gibson, who had been heavily criticized for a December 1991 interview with a Spanish magazine, was accused of homophobia for the films portrayal of the Prince of Wales (and future King Edward II) as an effeminate homosexual. It is strongly disputed whether Edward II, who fathered at least five children, was either homosexual or even bisexual at all. The scene where Edward I threw his sons lover out of a castle window was particularly criticized for inciting homophobia. The lover was based on Piers Gaveston, who was allegedly Edward IIs lover although he was also married and many historians believe these were just rumours invented by the Kings enemies in order to discredit him. Gibson refused to apologize for the controversy in a 1995 interview with "Playboy" magazine while promoting the movie. However, in January 1997 he did agree to host a summit for representatives of gay rights organization GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) on the set of Conspiracy Theory. Although the leaders of GLAAD noted they were disappointed that he did not apologize to them for the films alleged homophobia, Gibson did acknowledge "regret" over his controversial 1991 interview, claiming he had been drinking at the time and that his words had frequently been used to criticize him.
b.		The fight scene between Nicholson and Ann-Margret took a week to shoot, and at the end of it both performers had lost their voices.
c.		Terry Gilliams first choice for the lead role was Jeff Bridges, whom he had enjoyed working with on The Fisher King, but the studio wanted a bigger star, so he cast Bruce Willis. Ironically, Willis had originally auditioned for "The Fisher King", but lost out to Bridges.
d.		The film was a critical and commercial disaster upon release, effectively ending its star Clark Gables reign as "The King of Hollywood" and his viability as a box office champion. He was so disappointed by the finished film that he did not agree to act again until more than a year had passed.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Adventure (1945)?
a.		Jerry Lee Lewis re-recorded his songs for this film, which Dennis Quaid lip-syncs.
b.		This film was Clark Gables first after he returned to Hollywood following his service in the Army Air Corps in World War II. He had joined in August 1942, following the death of his wife Carole Lombard. MGM hyped this film as Gables big comeback, using the line, "Gables Back and Garsons Got Him!" in the advertising. Audiences at first lined up to see the King back in action, but the novelty wore off and the film flopped.
c.		John Malkovich kills Richard Jenkins with an axe in the same way Peter Stormare killed Steve Buscemi in Fargo.
d.		When the Terminator tells Sarah Connor about Miles Dyson and the history of Skynet, Arnold Schwarzenegger was reading his lines from a card taped to the cars windshield.
