1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Captain America (1944)?
a.		Shirley MacLaine does not speak until 29 minutes into the film.
b.		The sword that Will made for Commodore Norrington in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl has an interesting role throughout this one: Becket returns it to Norrington upon his assignment as Admiral; Norrington stabs Davy Jones with it as his answer to Jones question "Do you fear death?"; Jones takes it ("Nice sword!") and uses it in the final battle; Sparrow knocks it from Jones hand during the battle to the deck of the Dutchman, where it is found by one of Becketts soldiers; while admiring it, this soldier is killed by Jones, who takes it back, and later uses it to stab Will Turner through the heart. The sword is last seen in Wills chest as his father goes to remove his heart for the Dutchmans chest, but it has been rumored that when Will and the Dutchman return, Will has this sword at his waist, and this is the sword in the sand on the beach (along with Elizabeths) at the end.
c.		The Tappy Tibbons material was shot in one day, with Christopher McDonald improvising a good deal of his material. At the end, the SAG extras for the audience and the crew all gave him a standing ovation.
d.		In Captain Americas original story, a man named Steve Rogers - who is too weak and puny to fight in World War II - is injected with a Super-Soldier Serum and develops an enhanced physique, after which he becomes Captain America and does battle with the agents of Nazi Germany. This back-story was rejected by Republic during the making of this serial, as it would have required costly retakes at the time. In the serial, Captain Americas real name is Grant Gardner, he is the citys district attorney, and his foe is the Scarab, aka Karl Maaldor, played by Lionel Atwill.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Captain America (1944)?
a.		The role of Fanny was offered to several actresses including Leslie Easterbrook, Lee Meredith, Carol Wayne, Robyn Hilton, and Jennifer Cooke. All of them turned it down due to the graphic sex and nudity. Robyn Hilton is the only actress who tested for the film before she turned it down.
