About the movie:
1.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Northern Lights (1978)?
a.
Apart from the three leads -
Robert Behling
,
Susan Lynch
and Joe Spano (I) - none of the performers were professional actors. They were local North Dakota residents.
b.
The movie was a huge hit. When MGM discovered that a clause in director
King Vidor
s contract entitled him to 20% of the net profits, studio lawyers called a meeting with him. At the meeting, MGM accountants played up the costs of the picture while downgrading the studio forecast of its potential success. Vidor was persuaded to sell his stake in the film for a small sum. The film ran for 96 weeks at the Astor Theater and grossed $5 million (approximately $50 million in 2003 dollars) domestically by 1930, making it the most profitable release in MGM history at that point. Said Vidor, "I thus spared myself from becoming a millionaire instead of a struggling young director trying to do something interesting and better with a camera."
c.
The real grave of
Jim Morrison
is shown at the end of the movie, filmed at the Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, France. The headstone has since been changed and the graffiti was removed from the surrounding graves at the request of Jims parents. The bust of Jim is believed to have been stolen sometime in 1988. The grave is also surrounded with a steel fence to prevent any vandalism to the tomb itself, as pieces of the stone had been chipped off and stolen over the years.
d.
In the final beach scene, when the agents tell the "waiter" to bring in the poisoned coconuts, they call him by the name "Venkman", the name of
Bill Murray
s character from the Ghostbusters franchise.
