a.		The time-line of the film spans a year.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)?

b.		Right before shooting a scene in which the group runs through a dirty, trash-filled alley, the Toronto Sanitation department came by and cleaned it up, so the crew had to dig through local dumpsters for more trash.
c.		The characters of Charlie and Judy were inspired by real-life serial killers Charles Starkweather and Caril Fugate. Although the character of Judy acts like a very young teenager (like the real 14-year-old Fugate), a radio announcer was added to clarify that Judy is 18 years old, in order to sidestep censorship problems.
d.		Neither the confrontation with Warner outside the courtroom nor the final graduation scene was a part of the original script. When the movie was tested, audiences were so wrapped up in Elles story they were disappointed that she never got her revenge on Warner, and they also wanted to know what happened to her in the end (did she become a lawyer after all?). The two scenes had to be shot in England, because Reese Witherspoon and Matthew Davis were both filming there (she was filming The Importance of Being Earnest, while he was filming another project) at the time. Great Hall of Dulwich College in London played Harvard Law School. During the graduation scene, only Witherspoon and Davis are actually present. Shots of Jennifer Coolidge, Selma Blair, Luke Wilson and other supporting cast members were filmed in LA and the whole thing was edited together later. Both Witherspoon and Wilson are wearing wigs: she had cut her hair short since finishing filming and she is much paler than in court; he had shaved his head for The Royal Tenenbaums and got a much deeper tan. However, since two years have elapsed in the film, this is acceptable.

3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)?

4.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)?
a.		The end music credits do not list a conductor and orchestra for "Also Sprach Zarathustra." Stanley Kubrick wanted the Herbert von Karajan/Vienna Philharmonic version on British Decca for the films soundtrack, but Decca executives did not want the companys recording supposedly cheapened by association with the movie, and so it gave permission on the condition that the conductor and orchestra were not named. After the movies successful release, Decca tried to rectify its blunder by re-releasing the recording with an As-Heard-in-"2001" flag printed on the album cover. John Culshaw recounts the incident in the book "Putting the Record Straight" (1981). In Deccas haste to rush the re-release the recording, the album was issued with a disfiguring pitch waver at the end of each side. In the meantime, MGM released the official soundtrack album with Karl Böhms Berlin Philharmonic "Also Sprach Zarathustra" discreetly substituting for von Karajans version. The always publicity-minded von Karajan, by then permanent conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic, was furious with Decca. Rhino/Atlantic Records current CD release of the soundtrack purports to restore the von Karajan recording to its proper place.

c.		Lawrence Bender: the films executive producer is sitting at the first booth at the diner where we first see Jacob, Kate and Scott.

b.		The Megazord Cockpit was built on a Gimbel assembly so that it could be tipped forward when the Ninja Megazord has been knocked down, just before the Falconzord connects with it. The Cockpit had portable air conditioners in order to keep the stunt actors in Power Rangers costumes cool in their suits, though the air conditioners worked too well and the Cockpit was freezing to the stunt performers.

To make up for her removal, she appears in a cameo in this film and has a major role in X-Men: First Class.
