Famous trivia from Hollywood movie : Lost in a Harem (1944)

This quiz will test your movies knowledge by asking you questions related to the various famous movie trivia from the Hollywood movie: Lost in a Harem (1944).

About the movie: Two bumbling magicians help a Middle Eastern prince regain his rightful throne from his despotic uncle.

1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Lost in a Harem (1944)?
a.		A possible reason why Leonardo DiCaprio did not receive an Oscar nomination for his performance in this movie was because the Warner Bros. Studios initially did not want to favor DiCaprio over his co-stars and place him in the leading actor category. The studio favored DiCaprios leading performance in Blood Diamond (which eventually got him a nomination). DiCaprio himself refused to campaign against his male co-stars in the supporting actor category, so Warner bought no supporting actor ads for DiCaprio, and he did not receive a nomination.
b.		A scene featuring Ray driving Ecto-1A recklessly at speed, as a result of being possessed while examining Vigos painting, was filmed but not used in the final edit of the movie. However, some shots of the sequence (Ray running a red light; Peter, sitting in the back, pulling a surprised face) were used in the montage as the Ghostbusters go back into business. (This continued a trend of unused scenes being used in a montage. In the first film, a scene of Ray and Winston investigating a haunted fort, where Ray encounters a beautiful ghost, was filmed and not used, but instead used as a dream in that movies montage sequence.)
c.		When Kate Capshaw is humming the Raiders March (the Indiana Jones theme), not only does it refer to her starring role, but it also alludes to the fact that Best Defense director Willard Huyck was the screenwriter for Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
d.		Universal loaned MGM John Grant, the comedy teams personal gag writer, to script some of their patented pun routines.

b.		The first draft took a year and a half to write, and the second took another year, as it was very difficult to adapt a novel which featured very heavy dialogue with almost no descriptions of characters or settings.

b.		The budget was $1.2M.

(Although Sleuths credits did include several nonexistent actors to mislead audience into thinking it was not just a two-character thriller and Virginia Woolf did feature two unbilled bit players as roadhouse employees, neither of whom was obviously nominated.)
d.		Two songs were written for the movie but not used: "I Know Its Wrong" by Gene de Paul and Don Raye and "It is Written" by Sammy Fain and Ralph Freed. "Noche De Ronda" written in 1935 by Maria Teresa Lara was recorded but cut from the final release version.

Ironically, in a sketch on this TV special, Julie and Carol did a spoof of the "The Sound of Music" in much the same way Burnett later spoofed movies on her own variety show The Carol Burnett Show. At the time, Julie Andrews had no idea she would later star in the film version.
