About the movie: Mike and Danny fly a cropduster, but because of Danny's gambling debts, a local sheriff takes custody of it...

1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: It Happened at the World's Fair (1963)?
a.		Much of the special effects crew that worked on the first three films and Supergirl were hired during pre-production, but eventually left following salary disputes.
b.		Kurt Russell, who makes his film debut as the kid whom Elvis pays to kick him in the shins, would later go on to play Elvis in the TV movie, Elvis.
c.		According to "the lost tape", which contains gun shop owner Andys personal video diary (accessible as a bonus feature on the directors cut DVD), the main characters arrive at the mall early in the movie on May the 9th. Therefore, the movie opens a day earlier on May the 8th (Andy mentions that attacks on citizens by the undead had already started on the 7th). Andy makes his last entry just before he turns into one of the undead on June the 6th, and the movie ends on that same day (not including the footage during the end credits). This places the events of Dawn of the Dead in a space of just 29 days - and it begins and ends at dawn.
d.		Billy Wilder had already written the story in Germany, then brought it to the USA when he emigrated and sold it to MGM.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: It Happened at the World's Fair (1963)?
a.		The film had troubles with the US censor, the Production Code Administration because of the apparent justification of the immoral relationship between the Prince Regent and Mrs Fitzherbert, because a steward at a gentlemens club had the manner of a sex pervert, because the Prince checks the gender of a dog and use of the word damn. Changes were made but the running time remained the same.
b.		During one scene, Michelle Pfeiffer had to put a live bird in her mouth.
c.		Recalling his scene with the legendary Elvis years later, Kurt Russell says that although the scene called for Russell to kick Elvis Presley in the shin, Russell didnt want to do it. He says that finally Elvis paid him $5 to do it and he did.
d.		Theres a shot where the heroine pulls herself up a cliff. Its filmed exactly like the shot in Alien where Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) does the same, looking for the Alien, and in Aliens, when Ripley pulls herself out of the airlock at the end. In both shots the characters are sweating heavily and one of their hands in front of their faces can be seen.

3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: It Happened at the World's Fair (1963)?
a.		Kurt Russell, in his screen debut, kicks Elvis Presleys shins.
b.		One of the locations used was the old Seville Theater in a rundown section of St. Catherine Street near the old Montreal Forum. By that time the theater had been closed for quite a while and they redressed it as an Adult Movie Theater on NYCs 42nd Street leaving many to believe that the Seville Theater was being turned in a porno palace. After the filming was down everything was taken down and the theater still remains to this day (December 2006) closed, but is basically a shell as the owners have let it fall into disrepair. But the city has deemed that the front of the building historically important architecture and will not allow the building to be torn down unless they incorporate the front of the building into the new project.
c.		Both Cherry Jones and Jayne Atkinson have starred on the television show 24.
d.		Errol Flynn and Bette Davis disliked each other, and when Elizabeth slaps Essex in front of the entire court, Davis hauled off and unexpectedly belted Flynn for real. The anger on Essexs face is quite genuine, as is Flynns visible imposition of self-control to avoid hitting Davis back.

4.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: It Happened at the World's Fair (1963)?
a.		In a separately filmed trailer, Vitaphone production reel #4096, Richard Barthelmess speaks to the audience about the picture.
b.		The first movie to be written, directed, and co-produced by a Native American.
c.		The silhouettist played by Mandy Patinkin and his wife (played by Fran Drescher) are listed in the credits with the character names Tateh and Mameh. These are not meant to be interpreted as their actual names, but are rather the Yiddish words for father and mother, respectively.
d.		The revolving Restaurant Scene in the Space Needle, the signature song, "Im Falling in Love Tonite", is sung live with the orchestra just behind the camera. Hence the applause at the end of the song.

5.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: It Happened at the World's Fair (1963)?
a.		While the movie begins by stating it is based upon a true story, it never names the actual casino involved. The Tangiers casino is fictional. The story is actually based upon the history of the Stardust casino, a fact well documented in the Vegas history books. Martin Scorsese discreetly documents this fact via the soundtrack, in which the song "Stardust" is heard three different times. An instrumental version plays during Ace and Gingers wedding and a vocal version is heard during the scene where Remo asks Marino if Nicky and Ginger are having sex and also during the very end of the final credits.
b.		As with the first half of the film, Warwick Daviss company, Willow Personnel Management, was called upon to provide little people to portray the goblins at Gringotts.
c.		Joan Crawford was offered the lead role, but turned it down.
d.		One of three films that Elvis Presley and Kurt Russell have in common. Russell appeared in the Elvis movie "It Happened At The Worlds Fair" (1963), he portrayed Presley in the TV movie "Elvis" (1979), and he played an Elvis impersonator in "3000 Miles to Graceland" (2001). In "It Happened at the Worlds Fair," Russell (who was a young boy at the time), ran on screen and kicked Elvis in the shin. In "3000 Miles to Graceland," this scene is parodied when a young boy runs on screen and kicks Russell (in full Elvis attire) in the shin.
