had an entire reconstruction of the fictional town of Maycomb, Alabama, built on the Universal backlot at a cost of $225,000. The set contained more than 30 buildings.

Rambo III
for the Sega Genesis, however some scenes show her playing "Rambo" for the Nintendo Entertainment System.

The scene in which Hughes locks himself in the projection room and cuts off most contact from the outside world for an extended period of time is somewhat misleading. Though Hughes battled germ phobia all of his life (the fear of germs was instilled in him early on by his mother) Hughes did not become a recluse until much later in his life. The scene that is portrayed in the movie is very similar to a documented incident where Hughes did spend almost a year in a private movie theater however it wasnt until he was near 50 years old.
c.
After being completed, the film was shelved for two years, which was not uncommon in RKO under the control of Howard Hughes.
