1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Navy Blues (1941)?
a.		Based on a true story.
b.		Of all the villains, "Numbers" Norton (played by James Tolkan) was the only one created for the film.

d.		The Navy Blues Sextet were the winners of a contest in which U.S. soldiers were asked to pick the six most beautiful women from a field of 150, many of whom were Warner Bros. contract actresses. The winners were Georgia Carroll, Alexis Smith, Loraine Gettman (Leslie Brooks), Kay Aldridge, Marguerite Chapman and Peggy Diggins. Smith was replaced by Claire James when she was assigned a role in Dive Bomber.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Navy Blues (1941)?
a.		The gargoyles are named "Victor" and "Hugo", after Victor Hugo. The third gargoyle, Laverne, is named after Laverne Andrews, one of The Andrews Sisters.
b.		Because Anatole Litvak was a Russian Communist, the leftist slant to "Out of the Fog" stood out to the people at the Hays office, though given the historical context to the times in which this movie was made, it is obviously more anti-Nazi than pro-communist. Nonetheless, the Hays office just had to have their finger in the pie and would not allow the protagonists to kill off Harold Goff, as they had in every performance of the original story, Irwin Shaws play "The Gentle People," and John Garfields character had to die accidentally, giving the ending an interesting twist, which, as some critics noted, made the story even better.
c.		Film debut of Jackie Gleason.
d.		Minnie Driver gained 30 pounds for the role of Benny.
