About the movie: The "true story" of baseball great Babe Ruth; Ruth plays himself.

1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Headin' Home (1920)?
a.		Babe Ruth received $25,000 for this, his first film. The sum was a large amount for the time, and Ruth refused to cash his paycheck and carried it around to show to friends. By the time Ruth had decided to cash his check for the film, the check bounced because of the films poor box office results. Ruth shrugged off his loss and kept the check as a memento.
b.		Originally, Stanley Kubrick had Stuart Freeborn create a primitive but more human-like makeup for the actors playing early man, but he couldnt find a way to photograph them in full length without getting an X-rating from the MPAA, since they had to be naked. So Kubrick went with the hairy monkey model instead. With the exception of two baby chimpanzees, all were played by humans in costume. Freeborn and his wife Kathleen Freeborn used comic actor Ronnie Corbett as a makeup model, but he did not appear in the final film. Daniel Richter, who plays the ape moon watcher, choreographed most of these scenes. Early viewers of the movie wondered where Kubrick obtained such well-trained apes. It was later joked that "2001" lost the Best Makeup Academy Award to John Chambers for Planet of the Apes because the judges didnt realize the 2001 apes were really people, but there was no nomination list at all, as the award was not created until 1981--Chambers award was merely honorary.
c.		Jill Clayburghs proof of the "Snake Lemma" at the very beginning of the movie is technically perfect. In Charles A. Weibels book, "An Introduction to Homological Algebra" (Cambridge U. Press, 1994), there appears the following: "We will not print the proof (of the Snake Lemma) in these notes, because it is best done visually. In fact, a clear proof is given by Jill Clayburgh at the beginning of the movie Its My Turn."
d.		The sets used for the film were later digitized for use in the next made-for-video animation release.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Headin' Home (1920)?
a.		Ironically, this film was partially financed by gambler Abe Attell, a gambler who had helped Arnold Rothstein fix the 1919 World Series. Babe Ruth, the star of the film, has always been credited with saving baseball after the 1919 Black Sox scandal.
b.		Kinky Friedman wrote an original song for the film, but it was replaced with a new score.
c.		This film is half of Cult 70s Porno Director: Roberta Findlay - XXX Double Feature (2005) DVD from Alpha Blue Archives.
d.		Simon Furman, who had written the Transformers comics in the U.K. and U.S.A, collaborated with the screenwriters to produce a graphic novel, Transformers: Prequel, which chronicled the events that led to the classic Autobot/Decepticon war back on Cybertron, and serves as a prequel to the events that occurred in the film. This story can be seen as a bonus feature, Transformers: Beginnings in the Wal-Mart DVD.
