However, Katharine Hepburn agreed to star on the condition that she could leave for New York on November 16, 1933 to appear in the play "The Lake". Shooting of the two final scenes ran about 6 hours late on November 15, 1933, but director John Cromwell was dissatisfied with the results and wanted to reshoot them.

4.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: No Country for Old Men (2007)?
a.		One of the combat sequences in this movie centered around a fight to capture a German position hold up in an Italian farmhouse. This included a scene where two German soldiers, manning a MG42 machine gun, are filmed firing belts of ammunition at the attacking Americans. Apparently when the first takes of this action were made, using blank ammunition, it didnt look real enough. This perceived flaw was eventually resolved by filming two GIs from Fort Lewis, dressed as German troops, firing live ammunition from the machine gun. It was the only way that they could think of to get the impressive muzzle flash when the weapon was fired.
b.		The only firearm that Sheriff Bell uses during the film is a Colt M1911A1 .45ACP semi-automatic pistol.
c.		The script was originally submitted to Universal studios TV division. Executive producer Jennings Lang liked it so much he thought he could pass it off as a theatrical release.

"So we called the school and they gave us a Templeton Eagles windbreaker, and that was really moving for me when I watched the movie to see me put on the windbreaker and see Templeton Eagles just plain as day on this 60-foot screen. That was just great."
b.		The scene where the characters of Jeff, Morgan and Daniel go fishing was filmed 14 hours before Hurricane Katrina hit. Cast had to wrap up and leave because the locations were in South Alabama; dangerously close to the coast.
c.		A part-talkie, this demonstrates the difficulty Carl Laemmle had in securing Foxs Movietone system throughout 1929. He would often be unable to secure the equipment for longer than a week at a time and was faced with the predicament of rushing projects or releasing them in a less marketable part-talking format at a time when the public was clamoring for talkies.
d.		When Tom Cruise couldnt get the film into a place where he was happy with it, the project was placed into turnaround by Paramount.

7.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: No Country for Old Men (2007)?
a.		The "head in a vise" scene is taken from an anecdote in the book "Casino" unrelated to the main story, describing mob enforcer Tony Spilotros interrogation of a low-level gangster named Billy McCarthy, who had committed the unauthorized murder on the Scalvo Brothers, a pair of high-ranking mobsters within Spilotros crime organization. Trying to get McCarthy to give up the identity of the man who helped him kill the Scalvos, Spilotro first beat McCarthy, then stabbed him in the testicles with an icepick, before finally shoving his head in a vise and crunching it to five inches wide; McCarthy didnt give up the name of his partner, Jimmy Miraglia, until Spilotro tightened the vise in such a way that one of Billys eyes popped out. Amazingly, McCarthy survived the head-crushing long enough for Spilotro to kill him by dousing him in lighter fluid and setting him ablaze. Spilotro would remark later in life, "Billy McCarthy was the toughest guy I ever met." (Jimmy Miraglia was subsequently shot dead and put in the trunk of his own car along with Billys corpse).

c.		Nearly all the films directed by Léonce Perret in the United States were produced and financed by Pathé of France, under many various names, before the LLC legal device existed. The French were outsourcing to the USA because it was cheaper that way. Since films were silent, the language of the actors did not matter.
