3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Don't Say a Word (2001)?
a.		Dustin Hoffman was interested in playing Shylock; however, when he contacted director Michael Radford about it, Al Pacino had already been cast.
b.		The vast majority of the external scenes were filmed in and around Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England. Producers Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus couldnt afford to shoot in New York.
c.		The wife of producer Mark Hellinger, Gladys Glad, a former showgirl for Broadway producer Florenz Ziegfeld Jr., was responsible for getting this film made. Hellinger had brought home a large stack of scripts that he was to read for filming consideration. Hellinger had leafed through the script and read the summary, but felt that "nobody would pay money to see a bunch of truck drivers". His wife read this script, liked it, and pressured Hellinger to read it. Reluctantly, he did, the film eventually got made and became the sleeper hit of the year for Warners. It was made for an estimated $400,000 and grossed more than $4,000,000. (Source: Book "The Mark Hellinger Story" by Jim Bishop, New York: Appleton-Century-Crofts, 1952)

b.		Carole Lombard was offered the lead role in a proposed melodrama, "Smiler with a Knife," to be directed by a newcomer at RKO named Orson Welles. She turned it down, opting to return to screwball comedy in Mr. & Mrs. Smith. Welles refused to make Smiler without her. After briefly considering Lucille Ball for the lead role, he began work on Citizen Kane.
c.		The Canal Street subway station was actually filmed in Torontos "Bay Lower" unused subway station. $150,000 was spent on set dressing alone. The TTC (Toronto Transit Commission) was so impressed with the New York conversion that they actually requested the set to be left up after filming was completed to attract future filming revenue. The set remained for about three weeks until TTC fire inspectors deemed the set a hazard (steel girders, signs and benches were plastic and wood), so the set was torn down and disposed of.
d.		In March 2008, Abrahamm Karpen, a 25-year-old member of the insular Williamsburg, New York, Hasidic (ultra-Orthodox Jewish) community, dropped out of filming on the orders of his communitys rabbis. Karpen had been playing the role of the husband of Natalie Portmans character. Their segment had most probably already been shot, since Natalies site contains a photo gallery from two days of shooting (12 and 13 March 2008) and the filming was supposed to take two days. Karpens face is now closed with a picture of Keira Knightleys face in the photo gallery. However, Abraham is in the film and is credited for the role as Abe Karpen.
