d.		It was the first film by Charles Chaplin to be not only in widescreen (which he disliked - see A King in New York) but in color as well.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Dave (1993)?
a.		Greta Garbo turned down the role of Rachel.
b.		The show playing on TV that Natalia is watching is "5 Minutes", Catherine C. Pirottas short film from when she was in film school.
c.		Following the series of hurricanes in the southern United States in 2005, production moved to Shreveport, Louisiana.
d.		When they are swearing Gary Nance as president, they refer to him as the 45th president of the United States. This means that Mitchell would be the 44th. George W. Bush is the 43rd President of the United States. Barack Obama is the 44th President of the United States.

3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Dave (1993)?
a.		The "modern" sidearms (the films setting is 1913) that the Bishop gang carries are Colt M1911 automatic pistols and Winchester M1897 pump-action shotguns. The water-cooled heavy machine gun is the Browning M1917. US and Mexican soldiers use M1903 Springfield rifles. All of the aforementioned weapons were used in World War I by the US Army. While the 1897 Winchester shotgun was featured prominently, they were not used exclusively by the Bunch. The shotgun that Crazy Lee had at the start of the movie in the railroad office, did not have an exposed hammer, which is something all 1987s have. Neither the 1897 or the Winchester Model 12 had a trigger disconnector, which means the trigger could be continually depressed and every time the the slide was pumped it would fire. Since this was what we see the Bunch doing as they are firing through the railroad office windows at the bounty hunters on the roof, at least the shotgun that Crazy Lee loaned briefly to Abe must have been a M12, based on it not having an exposed hammer. This can be see most clearly when Crazy Lee is firing at the 3 people he was holding in the office, after they tried to escape.
b.		Kevin Kline got the part after Warren Beatty and Kevin Costner both turned it down.
c.		Although the film was shot entirely on location in Montreal, in one of the final scenes, as Manuel has entered the metro and it is leaving the station, the map seen inside the train is, in fact, a map of the central Washington, DC area.

c.		When Thomas Crown is signing the sale contract in the boardroom, it can clearly be seen from the movement of the pen that he is signing "pierce" and not "thomas".
