About the movie: A young comic plays second-rate nightclubs and chintzy resorts in his struggle to break into the big time.

1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Always Leave Them Laughing (1949)?
a.		The "Fountain Pen Sketch" was taken from the hit musical (over 400 performances) that opened in New York in 1948, and starred Sid Caesar. Max Showalter, who performs that specialty number in this movie, was also in that opening night cast playing the same role, as well as others.
b.		Though their characters are roughly the same age, in reality there is a 10 year age gap between Parminder Nagra (b. 1975) and Keira Knightley (b. 1985).
c.		As each chapter of the "part talking" version began, it looked like a typical silent film with title cards. It was accompanied by synchronized sound effects and music recorded on large discs similar to record albums. In the middle of each chapter there are several segments where the title cards stop and a full dialog sequence commences. After a few minutes the dialog on the audio stopped and the title cards resumed - again accompanied by just music and effects. This was one of several techniques used in the late 1920s for making films that were not fully a talkie and not fully a silent either. The "sound on disc" system quickly fell out of favor for "sound on film" which provided better synchronization of the dialog with the video.
d.		Bob Peterson, the movies story supervisor, provided the temporary voice of Roz, the green secretary, during production. The nasal, sing-song voice proved to be such a success that they kept it in the final film.

b.		Alfred Hitchcock: About an hour in, at the party in Alexander Sebastians mansion, Hitchcock gets a glass of champagne from the bartender and quickly turns to the left and walks off screen.
c.		An early cast list included Henny Youngman, Benny Baker and Red Buttons, but they were not seen in the movie.
