4.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Al Capone (1959)?
a.
Martin Balsam
s character, Mac Keeley, was based on a real-life Chicago Tribune reporter named Jake Lingle. Lingle, a "legman" who ran down gang-related stories for the paper, had close ties to Capone and other gangsters as well as the notoriously corrupt Chicago Police Department, and he was well-paid by both mobsters and a police commissioner as a "go-between." Lingle was gunned down on June 9, 1930, much as depicted in the movie, after "getting too big for his hat", as Capone put it, and demanding too much for his services (though a Capone rival likely paid for the hit). Apparently legal concerns prevented the producers of this film from using Lingles name. However, just a few months after this film was released, the TV series
The Untouchables
told Lingles story in its third episode and used his actual name.

They were the the Atlanta Motor Speedway in Georgia; the Daytona International Speeway in Florida; the Charlotte Motor Speedway in North Carolina; the Darlington International Raceway in South Carolina and the Talladega Motor Speedway (then known at the time as the Alabama International Motor Speedway) in Lincoln, Alabama.
