About the movie:
New high school teacher tries to help troubled students and falls in love with the principal's secretary.
1.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Because They're Young (1960)?
a.
Unclear whether this is foreshadowing, an inside joke (unlikely in view of somber tone) or just an odd choice of words, but early in film Alice tells George Eastman "When youre an Eastman, you not in the same boat as anyone." Later in movie, he takes her out on a boat with the intention of drowning her. (He decides he cant but she falls out and he refuses to save her.)
b.
Producers and the director,
Michael Haigney
stated that there was a lot of trouble having to match the animated lip movements. The script was written twice to try and make sure that all the dialog matched up. They also said that they were very happy that Mewtwo was a psychic Pokémon, because he would converse using his ability and so there were not many times where his mouth was moving, so they did not have to work around making the dialog match his mouth movements.
c.
Originally made by Paramount but sold to United Artists for release.
d.
The title song was not written by
John Williams
, but rather
Don Costa
, with lyrics by
Aaron Schröder
and
Wally Gold
. The song "Because Theyre Young" was released by
Duane Eddy
and became one of the rare all-instrumental hits of the era, going to number 4 on the American charts in the summer of 1960. The combination of Duane Eddys "twang" guitar style and string orchestration was a different one for Eddy and it ironically became the biggest hit of his career. Eddys version of the title song was not the version used in the movie; an anonymous orchestra played the instrumental version over the opening credits, and
James Darren
sang the vocal version. Duane Eddy and the Rebels performed "Shazam" in the movie. Darren didnt hit it big as a singer until a year and a half after this movie came out, when he hit the top 10 with "Goodbye Cruel World."
2.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Because They're Young (1960)?
a.
Although
Bobby Rydell
didnt appear in the movie, his song "Swingin School" was part of the soundtrack. It entered the Billboard Top 40 on May 16, 1960 (3 weeks before Duane Eddy & the Rebels version of the title song), and stayed for 8 weeks, peaking at #5.
b.
Two different
Christina Fougnie
lookalikes,
Juliana Allen
, and Alexis Combs McCoy, were offered the role of Stacy, but both had conflicts with the shooting schedule; the actress that was finally cast as Maxs mother had blonde hair and blue eyes and needed to be transformed via hair dye and contacts. After glasses were added, it was noted by crew members that the new creation bore a striking resemblance to former Alaskan governor, Sarah Palin.
c.
Paul Newman
turned down the leading role.
d.
Filmed entirely in San Diego, California using only two ambulances from two companies (the red "DIC" ambulance a retired San Diego Fire Department/Rural Metro ambulance and the blue "BALS" ambulance from a non-emergency company no longer serving San Diego).
3.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Because They're Young (1960)?
a.
James Horner
wasnt particularly happy with the treatment of his score for the film despite receiving his first Oscar nomination. He delivered a finished score which didnt sit well with the edited film. Because Horner was unavailable as he was working on another film at the time,
James Cameron
had to heavily chop up the score to fit his edit. (A Deluxe Edition soundtrack of the score has since been released by Varèse Sarabande.)
b.
Based on an early review of the movie in the September, 1959 issue of Stardust Magazine (Vol. 1, No. 1) ...apparently the working title was the same as the John Farris novel, HARRISON HIGH, on which it was based (no mention of BECAUSE THEYRE YOUNG). The review also mentioned that Dick Clarks character was that of the principal, not a teacher.
c.
A colorized version of this movie has been made.
d.
Director
Ronny Yu
and the producers tried to limit
Ken Kirzinger
from doing his own stunts as much as possible for legal reasons.
