5.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Alibi Ike (1935)?
a.		Shot in 15 days.
b.		When "Alibi Ike" was first released to TV in 1956, the sequences involving the gamblers and their attempts to have Ike "throw" the game were practically eliminated, reducing the length of the film by 20 minutes, unnoticed on commercial TV. The appearance of "Lefty", the head of the gambling syndicate, was reduced to just one scene as a spectator in the stands. Additionally, Ike arriving late for a game, enters the ballpark in a delivery vehicle that is towing autos. In the 50s edited version, what appears to be a usual prank on Ikes part is actually the result of Ike fleeing the gamblers.
c.		Although Bill Tytla was credited as the supervising animation director, a combination of health issues and disagreements with producer John C. Rose led to Robert McKimson taking over most of the animation directing duties early in production.
d.		Rita Moreno was the initial choice for the role of Rosie, but turned down the part.

6.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Alibi Ike (1935)?
a.		John Cleese says he is not interested in extraterrestrial life as he often philosophizes about the purpose of life and why humans are distracted by trivial matters.
b.		When this film was first released to TV in 1956, the sequences involving the gamblers and their attempts to have Ike "throw" the game were practically eliminated, reducing the length of the film by 20 minutes, unnoticed on commercial TV. The appearance of "Lefty", the head of the gambling syndicate, was reduced to just one scene as a spectator in the stands commenting on the game. Additionally, Ike arriving late for a game, arrives at the ballpark in a delivery vehicle pulling a convoy of cars. In the 50s TV edited version, this hysterical event appears to viewers to be only the result of Ikes notorious chicanery. In the restored version, we see that Ike first actually wound up within the convoy as he was being chased by the gamblers.
c.		The original script was about ten pages longer than the one used in the final version of the film. Those additional scenes were actually all shot (although almost none were edited). The excised scenes were not interspersed throughout the film; rather, they all appeared after the action that closes the final scene in the final iteration of the film. The director edited the film sequentially and decided an open ending will be more suggestive for the surreal atmosphere he intended than the more conventional resolution he had scripted.
d.		Some prints were shipped to movie theaters under the name "Race Chasers".
