1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Double Jeopardy (1999)?
a.		On 24 December 1939, a month before the film premiered, Shirley Temple and Nelson Eddy performed a 30-minute radio adaptation of the play on the Lady Esther Screen Guild Theater, a program adapting popular films with some of Hollywoods biggest stars. It was during this program, according to Ms. Temples autobiography, that a deranged woman whod been stalking her managed to get within three feet of the stage with a loaded gun before being stopped and disarmed. Ms. Temple, Mr. Eddy, and the rest of the cast somehow managed to keep their composure through all of this, with the listening audience none the wiser.
b.		The films premiere engagement included a live prologue featuring a dance routine performed by actress Carol Dempster. During Dempsters dance the stage was illuminated by blue and gold footlights. Later, during the screening of the film, a stagehand accidentally switched on those footlights and the movie screen tinted the film in an unusual way. D.W. Griffith, standing in the rear of the auditorium, was so surprised and delighted at the blue and gold-tinted effect that he ordered all copies of the film to be tinted in those colors during certain key sequences.
c.		In the original prints, the "Orchids in the Moonlight" number was color tinted.
d.		Bruce Greenwood fakes his death to frame his wife while out at sea on a yacht. He does exactly the same in the film Bitter Vengeance.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Double Jeopardy (1999)?
a.		Although it is centered around an on-going war, no specific war is ever named in the film.
b.		Porn star Alisha Klass appeared as a cheerleader, but her brief scene was cut. You can see a glimpse of her in the lower right hand part of the screen when Sebastian is talking to Annette on the phone.
c.		Natalie Portman stated after the experience she had working with director Darren Aronofsky that she would work with him again at any point in the future.
d.		According to director Bruce Beresford, Robert Benton did an uncredited ten day re-write shortly before production began.

3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Double Jeopardy (1999)?
a.		The original script had EVE being kidnapped by little green aliens, motivating WALL-E to give chase and rescue her. This idea was withdrawn when it failed to win support from anyone who saw it, forcing the animators to - literally - return to the drawing boards.
b.		Sergio Leone was approached to direct the film, but turned it down since he felt the story, which glorified the Mafia, was not interesting enough. He later regretted refusing the offer, but would go on to direct his own critically acclaimed gangster film, Once Upon a Time in America.
c.		The "yellow spotted lizards" mentioned in the movie do not exist. There are only two venomous lizards in North America: the Gila monster and the Mexican beaded lizard, which live in the American Southwest and northern Mexico.
d.		Michelle Pfeiffer turned down the lead role in order to film the romantic comedy The Story of Us opposite Bruce Willis.

4.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Double Jeopardy (1999)?
a.		Jeanne Marie Spicuzza, while a student of philosophy, first encountered Hildegard von Bingen working part-time at a classical music store. She began seven years of research and three years of writing to complete the screenplay.
b.		First movie project of Burt Ward.
c.		While its true that the US Constitution does forbid a person being tried for the same crime more than once, had Libby in fact murdered Nick at the end, that would have been a separate crime, for which she could have been tried and punished. Being tried for a crime does not give a person license to then go and commit that crime. Also murder is not the only crime she could have been charged with such as carrying a concealed weapon, stalking, manslaughter.
d.		Apparently, this was the first movie ever to feature a B-52 bomber airplane. Other pictures that the B-52 bomber plane appeared in after included A Gathering of Eagles, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, and By Dawns Early Light.

5.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Double Jeopardy (1999)?
a.		In order to cash in on Frank Capras popularity in England, Columbia pictures released this film in London as "A Frank Capra production, produced by Frank Capra." Capra who had never even seen the film was furious. This led to a bitter year-long dispute between the head of Columbia Harry Cohn, and Capra (who sued Columbia for libel). It almost cost Cohn his job and almost resulted in Capra leaving the studio. It was resolved when Cohn relented and promised to buy for Capra, the rights to the play "You Cant Take It with You" for $200,000, and pay him some back salary if he would drop the suit. And Capra did.
b.		Jodie Foster landed the role of Libby after Meg Ryan and Brooke Shields both declined, but was replaced by Ashley Judd when Foster became pregnant.
c.		"Breath of Courage" was originally going to be a musical. Peter Anthony Fields (lyrics) and Jamal Dillman-Hasso (music) wrote ten original songs for the film. But, due to various technical problems at the recording studio, limited rehearsal time, and a rapidly approaching shooting schedule, all the songs were eliminated (with the exception of one, "Love Will See You Through", which now plays over the end credits). The weekend before shooting was to begin, director Fields and screenwriter Evonne Fields-Gould, rewrote all the scenes in which songs were featured so that the dialogue would reflect what was originally written lyrically.
d.		Christopher Nolan first pitched the film to Warner Bros. after the completion of his third feature, Insomnia, and was met with approval from the studio. However, it was not yet written at the time, and Nolan determined that rather than writing it as an assignment, it would be more suitable to his working style if he wrote it as a spec script and then presented it to the studio whenever it was completed. So he went off to write it, thinking it would take "a couple of months", but it ultimately took nearly eight years.

6.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Double Jeopardy (1999)?
a.		According to Albert S. Ruddy and Burt Reynolds on the DVD Commentary, for reasons unknown, Robert Aldrich didnt like actor Michael Conrad (Nate Scarborough) and would always insult him by calling him the "Polish Princess". Finally, when they were filming the scene between Paul Crewe (Reynolds) and Scarborough (Conrad) where Nate says, "Theres only two things youve got left: Your pride and your balls . . . " Aldrich liked the scene so much that he rewarded Conrad with a candy bar, which was the daily award Aldrich would give out to whomever did the best work that day. Conrad, who had endured Aldrichs insults throughout filming, was actually moved to tears. Aldrich stopped referring to Conrad as the "Polish Princess" for the rest of the shoot.
b.		This film made national news as the trained jaguar took a bite out of one of the people on the set. The next week the same jaguar attacked a stunt person. The jaguar was retired.
c.		Greg Kinnear was offered the part of Nicholas Parsons but passed.
