About the movie: While a distinguished astronomer is giving a lecture in a planetarium, a shot rings out and one of the audience members is found dead. A tough detective and a brassy female reporter lock horns as they both try to break the case.

1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Death from a Distance (1935)?
a.		Used props from The Invisible Ray.
b.		The film was rated "X" (no one under 17 admitted) upon its original release in 1969, but the unrestricted use of that rating by pornographic filmmakers caused the rating to quickly become associated with hardcore sex films. Because of the stigma that developed around the "X" rating in the ratings systems early years, many theaters refused to run "X" films and many newspapers would not run ads for them. The film was given a new "R" (children under 17 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian) rating in 1971, without having anything changed or removed. It remains the only X-Rated film ever to win the Oscar for Best Picture, be shown on network TV (although the R reclassification had taken place by then), or be screened by a sitting U.S. President, Richard Nixon.
c.		Robin Stilles last film.

b.		Scott Jacoby told Seventeen Magazine in 1977 that the hamster they used in the cigarette scene was already dead, but that the shot gave Jodie Foster the fits anyway. Foster went on record as saying one of the producers on this film was "nuts", explaining that he wanted her to show more skin and she refused. Foster had a terrible time with the sexual scene upstairs with Mario. Although her older sister did the shot, Foster was very upset that viewers would think this was her and fought and cried with the producers, to no avail.
c.		Elizabeth McGovern personally felt there was little to work with in the part of Deborah.
d.		A remake of this movie, Sharkys Machine, was first announced in April 2006. Variety reported that it was not expected that the remake would be set in Atlanta.
