About the movie: The story of Japanese-American soldiers who fought in Europe during World War II.

1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Go for Broke! (1951)?
a.		The original working title was "Boys in the Bank." Director Sidney Lumet hated it because he thought it made the film appear to be a "light, fluffy comedy," and he had it changed to "Dog Day Afternoon."
b.		This is one of a handful of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer productions of the 1950-1951 period whose original copyrights were never renewed and are now apparently in Public Domain; for this reason this title is now offered, often in very inferior copies, at bargain prices, by numerous VHS and DVD distributors who do not normally handle copyrighted or Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer material.
c.		Erewhon Prison is a reference to Samuel Butlers "Erewhon", about a city in which the protagonist is imprisoned and in which many of the normal rules of society are reversed.
d.		The original play, "Jean," opened in Vienna, Austria, on 23 December 1936. An English adaptation called "The Lady Has a Heart" by Edward Roberts, opened on Broadway in New York City, New York, USA on 26 September 1937 and closed in December 1937 after 91 performances. The opening cast included Elissa Landi as Countess Katrina, Vincent Price as Jean (name changed to Johann in the movie), and Lumsden Hare as Count Albert.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Go for Broke! (1951)?
a.		The DVD contains exactly 23 chapters.
b.		A segment featuring Claude Debussys "Clair de Lune" was animated and intended as part of the original release but cut due to the films already excessive length. "Clair de Lune" was reworked and rescored as the "Blue Bayou" sequence in Make Mine Music. A restored version of the original "Clair de Lune" sequence, released in the 1990s as a stand-alone short, can be found on the "Fantasia Legacy" supplemental DVD. The framing Leopold Stokowski footage for the segment could not be found, however, so the sequence is framed by recycled footage from the "Tocatta and Fugue" segment.
c.		Laurence Fishburne narrated the teaser trailer.
d.		Several of the main characters were played by actual members of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team depicted in the film. The men saw action with the outfit in Italy and France.
