Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Demetrius and the Gladiators (1954)?
a.
There is historical dispute and ambiguity over exactly when
Vivien Leigh
was contracted to play Scarlett OHara. One theory holds that
David O. Selznick
had already secretly signed her for the role as early as February 1938, and that the nationwide "Search For Scarlett OHara", during which thousands of dollars were spent "testing" aspiring actresses for the part, was actually a well orchestrated publicity stunt on the part of
David O. Selznick
to keep alive interest in a very expensive film for which he did not yet have the money to produce. The other, more dramatic and interesting story is that Selznicks brother
Myron Selznick
, an agent, introduced
Vivien Leigh
to
David O. Selznick
during the filming of the Atlanta fire and said "David, meet your Scarlett OHara". The truth of the matter is unknown, and may never be resolved.
b.
In September 1928, Warner Bros. Pictures purchased a majority interest in First National Pictures and from that point on, all "First National" productions were actually made under Warner Bros. control, even though the two companies continued to retain separate identities until the mid-1930s, after which time "A Warner Bros.-First National Picture" was often used.
c.
In 2008, a Californian man who found a little black dress in his closet was stunned when appraisers for U.S. TV series
Antiques Roadshow
determined it once belonged to
Marilyn Monroe
. The frock - which Monroe was sewn into for
Some Like It Hot
- was estimated to be worth $250,000
d.
According to
Jay Robinson
(Caligula), the break in principal photography between
The Robe
and
Demetrius and the Gladiators
was only three weeks. This would account for "The Robe"s opening shot of the gladiatorial arena; a scene lifted from its sequel. The scene featues Victor Mature & Jay Robinson. Also Ernest Borgnine, William Marshall, Richard Egan AND Susan Hayward; these last four were not in The Robe.
